Christmas cards and faux metal!

Hello crafters,
I have put up the christmas lights but not the tree. Usually I dont put it up until the days before christmas. When do you put it up?

Today I want to show one more christmas card and some matchboxes i made with false metal (faux metal).
 I guess its time to send the christmas cards out next week:) are you done with yours?

This matchbox has lots of different crosses.

This matchbox has butterflies, not everybody wants christmas matchboxes. They want them to be out all year.

Sorry for the bad pic. The paper is so shiny so its hard to make it justice.

Have a great weekend and advent!

Death, christmas cards and a tag!

Hello my crafty friends,
I know its been a long time since you heard from me. Well, life has its own turn. We have a death in the family so every day is hard. Just staying focused and try to do the best. 
Maybe crazy but I talk to this person in my head all the time and it helps. 
Today I will show some christmas cards!

This Christmas card is in 3d. Love the way the flowers just melts in the motive. The text God Jul= Merry Christmas

This is a Vintage Christmas card wich I find so christmas!

I made this small tag (ATC size) as a DT for Scrapgrossisten. The stars and the shape is wood veneer that I painted in metalic gold. I also put lace all around and some pearls. I think it turned out really cute. What do you think?

Well my dears, have an awesome sunday!

Thanks to all my viewers here:)

What I do with the left over paper.

Hello crafters,
I know it´s been to long since I was here.

However , I want to show you what I do with the paper thats left over from creating.

For example here is one 8x8 and one 6x6, good for card making.

I took two envelopes that would fit the paper pad.

I cut of 1 1/2 inch on the big and 1 inch on the small one. Took some adhesive on one side.

Here you can see I put the envelope on the small one and put in the rest of some used paper. I know lot of people already do this but for you how dident know this, it´s an exellent way to keep it togheter.

I hope you all out there have a great summer!

Take care// Susanne
