Castle Christmas Card

Hello there!!

Today i have another Castle card for you, this time i tried it on the festive Christmas theme. Christmas means snow. So i have this sparkling card today,

It is a very simple card. I first inked the night sky with dusty concord and faded jeans DI. Then i hand cut the "snow mountains" and inked the edges lightly before mounting on the card front. Then i stamped the castle image with versamark and heat embossed it with sparkling white powder. I also drew some snow fall with Ranger emboss it pen and heat embossed it again. Also some snow on the ground. Finally put it all together and mounted it on the card base and stamped the sentiment finally.

Here is a closer look, 

hope you liked my card. Looking forward to posting more xmas cards soon.

Have a crafty weekend

Christmas Exploding Box

Hello all

This month has been very hectic.... wonder how soo many birthdays & occassions come in december. Anyway i got a lot to craft but was not able to share anything on my blog... will do it soon hopefully.
Today am sharing a Christmas box especially made for a lil girl, from her aunt and she wanted all the fantasy of Christmas incorporated in it. So here it is....

Handmade Poinsettia flower

The santa and merry christmas alone are printouts. The snowflake in the sentiment panel is a 3D one. Loved it, click on photo for more details. The santa suit shaped tag was a easy peasy one to do, this is the first time am doing a christmas themed project and i loved the variety of beautiful that one can incorporate. The 3D christmas tree also turned out quite beautiful and sticking pearls to it to indicate snow was Sunehra's idea orginally, i saw it in one of her recent posts. loved the effect.

Now the Poinsettia flowers, gorgeous right, loved it to bits. It's all due to distress ink, love how it turns a project to a thing of beauty. 

Hope u liked my box, do give ur comments & suggestions friends. 

And finally here is something special about the Lulupu blog hop, I thank Lulupu for the excellent line up of guest designers and their vast store which serves every crafters' needs. There is soo much inspiration there and hope u dont miss the awesome candy.....
