Christmas concertina by Brenda

Morning Peeps, the first of my September posts sharing some inspiration from the August TV shows.

I do love a concertina card, this one is a little different in shape to the ones I usually make as I found this Timmy Movers and Shakers die hidden away unused. So I cut it five times and fixed together with ‘hinges’ made from the offcuts.

All five panels cut to fit onto the frame were inked with just one colour Oxide, Festive Berries and the images from Holly, Mistletoe, Christmas Rose and Poinsettia Script stamps, coloured all the leaves with sparkle pens and stamped the flowers again onto inked card, cut out and paper pieced and gold glitter added to the centres. 



This one using the new Celestial set. The background was created by inking Versamark through a stencil, removing it and adding Sticky Stuff, heating and rubbing old flakes. The moon was stamped into black card and heat embossed with details gold EP, as was the word from the same set. 

Have a good week and thank you for your visits.

  3. Both really beautiful creations Brenda and the pretty shape of the accordian card looks great using the four different script Christmas stamps, and the gold on black is so striking using the Celestial set of stamps and a great stencil background using the gold flake mixture to show off the large gold embossed moon. x
