Christmas in August

Hello everyone,

Christmas in August seems quite strange when its warm and sunny outside but when you are designing different projects to showcase New Release Stamps and products for IndigoBlu its just something you have to do. Mind you, I have had a real buzz doing this as some of my designs have been on Hochanda, fancy that, being on TV! Well not me, but my works of art! And another good thing is that I have made a start on my own Christmas Cards.

Wednesday brought Let Leonie Loose on Hochanda (this link is only good for a week as the show is on catch-up) and she was showcasing some of the New Products & Stamps from IndigoBlu and some of my samples along with others from the DT were shown so I thought I would share some photo's with you today.

If you haven't seen any of the New stamps and products yet, you really must take a look as they are FAB, especially the Luscious powders. 
I have loved using the Luscious powder so much as its so versatile that I have put a Video together showing you some techniques. (Hoping to add it it YouTube later today after doing a bit of editing)!

I'm hoping that after you have seen these projects they will inspire you to start your Christmas Crafting. 
Have fun,

This canvas was made to look like a wrapped present. This Stamp set is beautiful and is called Winterland Wood.

 I also created a matching tag

I stamped a sentiment onto the ribbon

 This card was made using the Country House Stamp. I cut the doors and masked certain part of the stamp details off so that I could make a secret garden.

I opened up the door and stamped the Deer Images in the "secret Garden"

 For this shaker card I used the Mother & Child Stamp

The images was embossed in Gold embossing powder

 The next two cards were made using images from the stamp set "Peace on Earth"

 This card was made from acetate and the Angel image was stamped and coloured onto card and cut out and attached to a silver card die cut. 

 This was a fun card to make using the Christmas puddings. The images were stamped straight onto the card and an extra one stamped on another piece of white card, coloured, cut out and mounted on foam pads. Do you like the little coin popping out of the pudding?

I found some small wooded spoons so give this one the Mega Flake treatment.


And last but not least, I put together a Christmas house using all the New Christmas stamps I have ATM! 

 The house was first given a coat of White Gee-Soo-Good then once dry painted with Goldfinger paint. Once dry I used the New Super Thick,  Slap it on through a couple of stencils on the roof and outside walls.

Unicorn Sparkles was added aound and inside the house.
