Journal Pages II

 I hope it is ok to post this picture.
It shows the middle pages from my red and green Christmas journal.
It is made with a stencil from Penny Black.
I had hoped to get my journal ready before deadline on Beccy's Holiday Challenge.
But no. The decoration on these pages has to wait.

CAS Christmas Card

Some weeks ago I visited an autumn marked, and then I bought a new die.
Today I used it for the first time on this CAS card.
The card has the size A6, and the die cut was glued directly on the card itself.
Gold paper for the die cut, gold Stabilo Metallic pen around the edges.
On the two stars there is a German Christmas greeting: "Frohes Fest".
Inside the card there is a double folded white paper for writing.
Die: Charlie & Paulchen "Waldengel".

A Journal Tag

Due to fibromyalgia pains I have not been crafting for a while.
But now I hope I will be able to continue the work on the Christmas journals.
Just now I am working on two different journals, one blue and one traditional red/green.
This tag is for the red one.

Again the tag was made out of a food box. Tag die: Spellbinders.
For the background I used snippets of coffee stained paper and a copy of an old book page,
strips of "gold"paper, gesso and Stabilo Metallic pen, also gold.
The angel is taken form an old Christmas card,
and the little twig of holly is a bit of an image from Beccy.
