Challenges I'm entering my card in:
* Bildmålarna - use two patterned papers

Magnolia winetag

Magnolia Down Under Challenge has "winetag" as their challenge this week. Good for me, because I have a few of those to make before christmas, and I haven't started yet! That is - until I saw that challenge ;)

And here's the result. And I'm sorry... none of us drink, so I didn't have any winebottles in the house. My Pepsi Max got the honours instead... :p

 Tilda is coloured with distress inks, and I made it a shakercard with small glasspearls inside. Used several dies, like spellbinders, Cheery Lynn doily-die, memorybox and dies from Magnolia. Papers are from Pion.

 The two small bottles are also Magnolia-stamps. I coloured them with my promarkers (I know.. but I had already put my inks away...), and wrote the words "merry christmas" on them. 

 The backside

A small tag with a christmas-stamp from Kort & Godt hidden behind the image.

Challenges I'm entering my card in:
* Magnolia Down Under Challenges - winetag
* Magnolia Mania - Tilda with an animal
* Tildas town - anything goes

Saturated Canary Christmas

I've bought a few of the new Saturated Canary rubberstamps, and here's a christmascard I've made with one of them.

I've followed the sketch over at the Saturated Canary challenge blog, and made the card in traditional red and green colours.

 The pearlstring is homemade, I found a great tutorial on how to make them here, and it was a lot of fun. I think I'll be using these quite a bit on my cards in the future. Just need to practise how to make them some more :)
