Stamped Christmas Cards (2)

Hi all. My stamping craze continues. I've been having fun with some of my new stamps. This time it's a fab folky stocking stamp from Noolibird. Another batch of stamped cards arose over the last week and weekend. 13 new, Nordic themed cards. Naturally, the reds and white / ecru dominate. I used Vivi Gade papers - series: Copenhagen.




A large card with 4 hanging stockings - a great display idea and a cardlift of one of Noolibird's cards. originally the stockings were stitched to the card but I used a baker's twine as a string and brown craft paper as backing . Stamped words - The Waltzing Mouse stamps.


Same idea but a different arrangement :)


Red, white and green? Why not!





A card with a piece of  acetate stamped and edged with patterned scissors. Looks good in sunlight and with the sparkly snowflakes.


Blue, white and gold... I liked this combination. Should try more cards in this fashion.


Couldn't resist making a couple of green cards too.




Quite pleased with this set of cards. Surely I won't run out of them, will I? Now moving on to stamping reindeer designs :)

Time for Hand-made Monday at Handmade Harbour. Very curious what other crafters have been up to recently. Do join in!

  1. I love your cards with the different textures. I also like the slightly unusual colours - it makes such a change from the usual.

  2. Just gorgeous - I love that Scandinavian style and the cards with the bakers twine are just divine. The green ones are lovely too, and make a lovely change from the red (although I love those as well!!)!
