DS82

Hi there all and Happy Thursday to you all.

Today we reveal our very last Deconstructed Sketch for 2012! This week's sketch runs for 2 weeks over the Christmas break with a brand new sketch for you after we welcome in the new year.

Now onto this week's sketch.....



As I have just written, addressed and posted over 50 Christmas cards, I wasn't really keen on making a card this week! So I decided to make a calendar page, for December 2013.......




I used a gorgeous Saturated Canary image, and colored her up to go on a 6X6"  calendar from 
SRM Press.

Now all I need to do is decorate the other 11 months!

IT'S TAG TIME

Hi there and happy Deconstructed Sketch Thursday to you all.

If you've visited my blog during the week you will know that I have finally got into the Christmas spirit and started making gift tags. You could imagine how excited I was to see jen's sketch this week in the shape of.... you guessed it.... a gift tag!

So here's Jen's awesome as always sketch....



And my project using this week's sketch....





I absolutely LOVED this week's sketch. It came together so quickly for me. That's what I love about sketches.

I paper pieced the little MFT girl, so there was very little copic coloring in to do. My papers were odds and ends from October Afternoon, Echo Park, and My Mind's Eye.

CHRISTMAS TAGS

Hi there.

I finally had time this week to play with some new product just for fun.

Some new stamps arrived at the store this week from DARCIES, and I couldn't wait to try them out. I was just going to stamp them in red and leave them uncolored for a quick tag, but you know me and copics. I just couldn't help myself........




I was so annoyed when I turned rudolph over with a wet mane of stickles and a blob of red made it's way down his face. Oh, well. We'll just call it a freckle.

I've left the back blank for a personalised Christmas message.

Only 14 sleeps to go!

Thanks for stopping by.

A CHRISTMASSY DS80

Hi there all and happy Thursday. It's deconstructed sketch time!

Jen's sketch is awesome as always, and I thought it would be fun to make a Christmas tree decoration since the sketch this week is round!










You will probably notice that my tree is totally bare. That's this weekend's number one job. I really like this decoration and think I may now have to make one for every family member. They are very simple and quick. A great idea for last minute gifts for special relatives.

Have a great week and weekend.
