Just remembered

Hi everyone. Sorry to keep you all waiting for something new!

I just remembered I had 'rejected' cards from PaperCrafts that I could have shared with you all. Well, technically just one, because I resubmitted the other one :P

I am totally knackered today. Not sure why but it's not a good sign given I'm on call tomorrow! 


This was submitted for the Nov/Dec issue I think. They were after something clean and classy (something along that line) so I went with the less is better option.

A simple window with embossed images worked rather nicely, except that the plastic warped under the heat. Not sure if I will bother trying again later lol
 
Anyway, sorry for a short post. I might feel like making a card tonight before bed seeing as I'm not in the mood for cover letters (I've done the two that were the important ones - still deciding how much effort I want to put in the remaining 4-5. They are optional to be honest but better to give myself more chance than not).
 
Thanks for coming around!

Snowy Christmas Card

Well, that attempt at blogging abstinence sure did not last! I'm back again! LOL

We're just having such a SUNNY day here today, that I had to do a very quick photo shoot of all the new cards that I have made recently! Hehe.

So a very very quick post (I'll try and keep it short!) for my currently fav Christmas card. I will mass-produce these soon, because I love it so much, even though Christmas is in the middle of Summer in New Zealand!!! It's amazing what tradition can do. We still sell Christmas cards with snow and snowmen and all, even though it's completely irrelevant! We do see the odd card with Santa surfing in board shorts!


I had to package this card, because I realised cards look so... professional with just a little bit of plastic around them! Also, it saved all the glitter coming off against other cards in the same box.

Totally simple card, and I couldn't wait to get my In the Meadow snowdrift dies that I had to makeshift with scissors. And glitter! And lots of it too! :D

Thanks for coming by!
