Merry little Robin

 

Hello lovelies, hope you are well! Today I am sharing some DT creations that I have designed for 

Linda Israel

I have created a vintage Christmas card using these stunning papers from the Merry Lil' Christmas creative kit. I just adore this little Robin!

 (My Mother used to love Robins, so every time I see one, I am fondly reminded of her) As you know, I just love anything vintage! and adding vintage to Christmas, I think is the perfect combination!

 

Here I have used a small Poinsettia die along with dark red card stock. The branches are created from Kraft card stock and Tim Holtz's Holiday Greens thinlit die set. I think they match perfectly with these beautiful papers! 

The vintage music paper is from my stash, and has really complimented the luxury green and red Tartan/Plaid designer papers from the kit. 

I have also created a small tag book to match my card. 

I used some Kraft card stock along with the smaller tag die from Tim Holtz's Tag collection die set. I decorated the outside with the same papers from the Merry Lil' Christmas creative kit. I also adhered a Tim Holtz Christmas word label and I added a mini paper clip as a closure. All edges of the card and paper have been distressed with Vintage Photo Distress ink. 

For the inside of the tag book, I scored and folded it into equal parts. I then decorated it with the same vintage music sheet. In the middle of the book, I added some left over scraps of paper from the kit and stapled them into the book. Quick and easy! 

On the bottom part of the tag, I used a Tim Holtz  'Happy Holidays' stamp along with Black Soot Distress ink. 

Thank you so much for stopping by the Den, I really do appreciate your visit! You can find more information on the Merry Lil' Christmas creative kit here:

This is Halloween Challenge - Spooky cute ATC coins

Hello lovelies, hope you are well! Tonight I am sharing some Halloween ATC coins. 

This is the first time that I have ever created Artist Trading Coins and I have to say that I am now addicted! 

 

To make my coins, I used a 2.5 Inch circle die and black card stock as a base. For this one, I have used these beautiful papers from the Haunted House scrapbook kit from Vectoria Designs. 

I have also used these Tim Holtz Faded type stamps along with Black soot Distress ink. The cute image is from Sheet 3 Halloween images, from Lisa Altered Art. 

For this coin, I have used the same papers from the Haunted house collection and another stamp from the same Faded stamp set. I have also used black cardstock along with a multiple bat die from Impression Obsession. The spooky word labels are from Tim Holtz. 

Thanks so much for stopping by, I really appreciate your visit!
