Inside my card

 

I colored my image with colored pencils and markers. The holly was cut with my December 25th Theresa Collins Circuit Cartridge.  I added a bow with the cute charm at under the bow.  I stamp the sentiment on the front and inside my card.

Hope this inspires you to get started on those Christmas Cards.

Ducky Christmas Ornament

Hi Inky fans, Angelica here, today it's my turn to share with you a project I made featuring one of the adorable Inky images.  I have made a christmas ornament using the adorable "Delilah's Ducky Christmas" image which you can find here.  

I stamped the image twice on watercolor paper and colored with distress re-inkers, the second image I cut with scissors and adhered with pop dots.

For the background, once I colored it I applied embossing ink all over the piece of watercolor paper and heat embossed with kaleidoscope embossing powder to get the really fun shimmery background.

I used a couple of large metal filigree corners and attached to the paper with jump rings.

I also added a little charm I made with a bead and gold bead findings.

Here is a close up of all the different layers, used lots of pop dots for dimension.

Well, I hope you enjoyed my little ornament, don't forget to participate on our halloween themed challenge this week over at the Inky Challenge Blog, make sure to enter for a chance to win an Inky Digital Image.  

Thank you for stoping by and until next time.

Angelica

Holiday Tags

Hello -
Wasn't sure what I wanted to post today as my inspiration. And then I ran across a few of my simple tags from Christmas last year. Time is short during the holidays, and I am not the best at planning ahead and working in advanced, and these tags are simple, but personal for your gifts.

First you start with a tag die. Any brand works, or you can hand cut them. But I like to mass produce these when making them and dies do speed things up. My die is from Papertrey Ink. I cut out how ever many I am ready to work with and usually I cut them out of kraft card stock. I like the vintage look for my Christmas packages.

I then choose a stamp -

How totally adorable is Delilah's Ducky Christmas  So fun and cheerful! I just had to use this one, well... but it really didn't fit my vintage adult tag look -

Don't be afraid to use "parts" of your stamp!

With a vintage white ink I stamps off the side of the tag - yes.. sadly Delilah is missing but that adorable Duck was just not the best fit for my tag - and I just LOVE that Christmas tree! From there you do as much as you feel. For me I distressed the edges, inked the edges, added some twine at the top and a "To" and "From"... oh and I just have to put my bling on things. 

And I just couldn't stand it... Delilah needed a tag too - so for the kids receiving gifts - I made up a few special tags with her as well...

Simple red paper, and these tags are ready for their gifts. Now these are simple and you can make up a whole bunch of them in a very short time - - -

But if you have more time, and get started now you can really make them special!

Ok, I love this one more... I just may have to get busy now... I colored with my Copics, and added lots of stickles and bling on this one.

These tags add a wonderful personal touch to any gift! Now take a look at your stamps or part of your stamps and maybe you can add your touch to your gifts.

I hope you enjoyed my inspiration today - Thanks so much for looking.
