No sponsor this week - just for fun, free-for-all Christmas theme

This fortnight's challenge theme is to showcase a Christmas project.

Here are the beautiful creations made by our Design Team to get your mojo flowing:

Annette

I've made this fat santa belly card from bright red card with some splashes of white, black and gold.  It was quite quick to make, and I love the fun design.

Brenda

I used one of my most favorite digi characters, Birdbrain.  He just makes me smile and the sentiment is my sincere Christmas wish.

Elaine

I love this poinsettia die used in a non traditional way.

Larissa

My favourite christmas project is making tags for the presents I am giving to my family. It just a little lovely extra on a present.

Lynne

I had to have a play with this new die.  I find it relaxing putting all the little bits and pieces in, some inked and some from scraps.

Sarah

I've been cross stitching this year and made this...

Wilma

I have lot of Christmas design papers and I had to use up some of the paper scraps. Found the inspiration on Pinterest. I love the snowflake, which I cut with my Cricut machine.
 

It's over to you.

We hope you will join in our challenge and show us your style.

Don't forget, you MUST explain WHY it is your favourite to be eligible to win.

Good luck, and happy crafting.

This fortnight's challenge theme is to showcase a project using 

Your Favourite Gold, Silver or Glitter (& why).

You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.

Here are the beautiful creations made by our Design Team to get your mojo flowing:

Annette

I love using glitter on cards, especially to create the effect of snow. I love the sparkle and much prefer it to gold or silver card (which is also difficult to photograph).  I've used glitter card to create the snow layers on this die cut card. It's a tent fold, so stands upright for a fun shaped Christmas card.

Brenda

I favor the look of gold on my cards.  I like the warm elegant feel it gives.

 

Elaine

Silver is my most favourite go to for cards, but at Christmas it is nice to have both silver and glitter. 

Larissa

I am not a big fan of using gold, silver or glitter, but if I have to pick one of these, I prefer glitter. Recently I found white glitter paper, which can be used for snow, It looks amazing.

Lynne

I do like all three but when it comes to making a card with green and red I like to use gold as it looks the best and is more traditional.

Sarah

Come on, it's Christmas soon so I used them ALL, Gold, Silver and Glitter!!

Wilma

I love glitter, but not the glitter that comes off from the (design)paper. So that your fingers and face are covered with glitters and you can't get rid of it. Glitter paper from Joy is my favorite. 
(It's hard to take a good picture of the glitter paper I used) 

It's over to you.

We hope you will join in our challenge and show us your style.

Don't forget, you MUST explain WHY it is your favourite to be eligible to win.

Good luck, and happy crafting.

This fortnight's challenge theme is to showcase a project using 

Your Favourite Embellishment (& why).

You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.

Here are the beautiful creations made by our Design Team to get your mojo flowing:

Annette

I've often frame my images with my favourite embellishments of flowers and ribbon.  I love that they can bring out accent colours within the image and create a soft texture. They can be a little bulky for mailing, but I love the 3D effect.

Brenda

I love using Stickles to add a little something special to cards.  It gives shine and just a little extra dimension.

Elaine

I do like to add Liquid Pearls to cards. I think they are an easy embellishment that add a little interest,  especially male cards.

Larissa

My favourite embellishment are my hotfix gems. I have many of them and love adding them because they are really easy to use and I love the look of them on my cards or other projects.

Lynne

My favourite embellishments are either enamel dots or pearls, whichever suits the card best. For this one I have used sparkly enamel dots as I didn't have the right colours in pearls.

Sarah

My favourite embellishment is gems or pearls because they are available in all colours and add a little bit of sparkle or shimmer without bulk. On these tags I have used clear gems to suggest snow.

Wilma

My favorite addition to a card are sequins, preferably in different sizes. On this card, I used Studio Katia sequins; they're my favorite brand. They add a bit more interest to a card.

It's over to you.

We hope you will join in our challenge and show us your style.
