If your plan is to make a CI Challenge project with a Christmas flavour then the following might be right up your street. We have nineteen lovely entries to date with 8 days to go - so still time to pop your link in HERE.
The items below all feature our vintage Santa from CI-396:
And this Santa is enclosed in a little shadowbox I made using two swirly frames from our die cut A4 sheet. With a little simple box inside the frames are great for making little hangings and perfect for Christmas gifts. I also cut a Starry Christmas Tree from red glitter card to sit at the side and hung a dismantled earring from the base to provide that bit of bling.
At the Port Sunlight Happy Stampers show recently I decorated tags with our masks in my demos. This is one that I finished off with the vintage Santa stamp when we got home, plus a little ribbon and lace..
Sylvie has also been playing along with Santa, and has made 4 cards in 4 different colourways. As Santa wasn't always traditionally decked in red robes these are perfect for a vintage Christmas..
Sylvie has also used our Background Paper books, and piccies from our Mini Image Christmas book here, plus the Floral Grid mask to create her lovely cards, and I love how she has kept the colour schemes so beautifully together on each one!
Another project with a Christmas flavour is this pretty decorative word from Lucy - and we all need a bit of 'Joy' in our lives now don't we?! The pretty little angel here is from CI-211.
*If you would like some delectable Crafty Individuals Christmas stamps (including the two featured above) to start off your festive preparations with a swing, I am delighted to say that we will be putting a little package of 8 assorted images together over the next couple of days which will be posted to two lovely lucky random readers, who follow this blog, and who leave a kind comment on this post below.
*I would also like to mention in this post that if you live overseas in the USA you should now be able to purchase Crafty Individuals rubber stamps in a store near you. Notions Marketing are currently distributing our stamps over there as well as in other countries too, so do ask your favourite stamping store to get in touch with them to place an order soon!
Back soon - meanwhile thanks for tuning in, and leaving those cool comments!

ReplyDeleteI love your new father Christmas stamp. I saw a lovely sample on Lynne's blog, Adorn. I like all the colorful samples that you have made. So many great ways this beautiful vintage stamp can be used.
ReplyDeleteWonderful projects and of course stamps. What a great idea to use a smaller tag on the larger tags to coordinate with the Santa image.
