Happy Day after Christmas!
I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas Day - I did - lots of lovely crafty stash from hubby... who proved that whilst I was muttering about 'Mmmmm that's a nice stamp - would really like it ' he was listening!
So I plan to spend the next couple of days playing about with the new stuff - be rude not to show how much I am enjoying the presents now wouldn't it???😊😊
Unsurprisingly though, today I am going to share a card made for sending next year - another one inspired by a Pinterest trawl.
(I actually don't know how many hours I spend looking at other peoples stuff instead of making myself!)
This card all made with little snippets of card laying about from the big Christmas card make, .
Have now had a BIG clean up on the desk and I was surprised to actually SEE the craft mat - been a long time since I have made it's acquaintance!
Used a 'snow' embossing folder on the card base and die cut 2 small circles.
On the smaller circle I brushed over some Peeled Paint DI then had a little bit of splattering fun with Festive Berries DO.
The holly flourish die I have had for a while, and the larger holly leaves and berries was a purchase earlier this year. Both again cut from tiny bits of card. The larger die cuts out the leaves and berries separately - trying to find 3 tiny berry circles amongst all the mess on the desk was fun (not 😕)
After painting all the die cuts I used some Glossy Accents on the all berries and sprinkled a little glamour dust onto the berry trio.
The sentiment was coloured with Festive Berries and also given a dose of glossy accents.
Am paying a visit into the Playground - (hoping that there's some Mince Pies left), although I will have to be well wrapped up as I am still suffering with that nasty cough!
Enjoy the rest of the Festive holidays everyone! x

Sorry to hear you are still suffering from your nasty cough x.
What a beautiful card Viv.....Love the design and layout of it and the pop of red looks fabulous. The glossy accents looks so pretty and the texture from the dry embossing adds another layer to your stunning card x.
Glad you can see your craft mat again x
Continue to enjoy the festive period and here's to a healthy and crafty 2019 x.
Stunning.
I am still away but borrowing grandson's laptop just to catch up.
Lucky you having crafting things for Christmas, look forward to seeing what you make. Great fun trawling through the debris on the work space and finding lots of useful bits to make more cards - something I do a lot. Very nice card to store away for sending next year.
A beautiful card Viv and starting your cards for next year....Wow... good for you.
I hope you had a good Christmas and send you my best wishes for the coming year

WOW Viv - what an utterly fabulous card! You really nailed this one - it's beautiful and sort of shouts 'Viv made me' - I just love your style of card making!

That is absolutely gorgeous, Viv! I too am playing about with bits off my craft table... only made one so far, which I will share later
WOW absolutely stunning, Viv. I love your card, so beautiful ...
This is so beautiful viv and love the holly and bright red berries and sentiment, and some lovely red splatters too, and all complemented by that falling snow embossed background card. Sorry to hear you still have your cough but hope it leaves you soon. x
Love it Viv, have pinned for inspiration, such a sweet look to it. Maybe I will get my cards made in 2019, that would be nice. Love all your inspiration, Happy New Year
Wow Viv I just love this, all the inky splattery glossyness, and such a fab concept xxx
Wow, this card is fab. So classy looking . Love how it has all been made from a snippet from here and there. I think there is a glass mat on my desk somewhere too. I did find the instruction book for my mobile phone the other day under a pile of design papers balanced on top of a box on a box though. Wishing you a Happy New Year. Hugs Mrs A.
This is FABULOUS. Love it.
