About Me

Welcome to my blog

I started this blog in April 2012 so I could join Challenges. I am now on some design teams. I hope you like my cards. I started stamping in 1995 but my cards are still mostly cute.
Thank you to those who have joined as followers and to those who comment.
Unfortunately because of spammers I have had to put moderation on the comments. I will approve them as soon as possible, this also means I don't miss any.
I don't always get a chance to reply to all comments but I read them all when I approve them and I really appreciate you taking the time to give your comment.
The lovely banner was made especially for me by Amanda at Faery Ink Art & Design when I won her first blog challenge. family:";">http://faeryink.com/product/granmargaret-fairy-digital-stamp/

Creative Fingers 231 - anything goes

Creative Fingers 231 - anything goes
https://creativefingerschallengeblog.blogspot.com/


I have used scraps of paper from Christmas basics paper pad which were  left over from making other cards.
I dry embossed the green paper with Cuttlebug Christmas stars and the red paper with Cuttlebug Snow Dots embossing folder.   (The embossing doesn't show up very well in the scan).
Punched another piece of scrap paper from the same pad with scalloped punch.
Stamped manger scene onto white card and heat embossed with WOW clear hologram embossing glitter
Punched out with a smaller scalloped punch and layered on top.
Added left over sentiment piece from same paper pad.

I hope you will go over and see the lovely work by the design team and join in the challenge.

I would also like to add my card to the following:

Pretty card Granmargaret. I like the extra definition that the embossing gives to the patterned papers. Thank you for entering the Use A Die Cut or Punch Challenge at Incy Wincy Designs.
