More Christmasness

Hi there, it’s Ruby.  I’m counting down the sleeps to Santa, are you?

Today I have a couple of cards to share with you.  I’ve always loved cards with groups of three, so thought I’d use that idea for this card. I used the Paper Smooches All Yule Need set for this one.


Next up is a quick one.  I noticed afterwards that Jenny did something similar to this recently but I didn’t copy, honest.  You know what they say, great minds think alike!


Same set for the stockings, I just used the sentiment ‘Be Jolly’ from the Paper Smooches Christmas Sampler.

Copic colours - RG29, RG27, RG24, YG05, YG03, YG01

Hope you’re having a good week.

Ciao for now.

More Christmasness

Hi everyone, it’s Ruby here.  I’m working on building my stash of Christmas cards, finally making a bit of progress!

Today’s cards are very quick to make.  First up is one that I made that I really like.  I just stamped the tree and paper pieced it.  I copic coloured the tree trunk and then attached it to the corner rounded striped square.  To finish I added the gems and stamped sentiment.  My friend wasn’t very keen, I think she thought it looked like it had been thrown together, but I think it’s quite funky.  What do you think?! The Christmas tree and sentiment is from the Paper Smooches All Yule Need set.


Next up is another one that took a while to colour but it’s a very simple card.  This is from the Lawn Fawn Bows & Holly set.  All I did was cut out the coloured image and pop it up on a pre-made label.  To finish I added some candy cane striped ribbon and a little gem.


The copics I used were..

BG18, BG15, BG11, BG10, R39, R37, R35, C3, C1

I also made it in this colourway too…


Well I hope you like what you see.  I will be back next week with some more Christmasness.

Have a great week!

Jester Socks!

Happy Saturday! It’s Ruby here.

I did a swopsie with Jenny the other day for my card so I’m posting today.

Here’s what I created..

I used two of the Christmas sets from Paper Smooches ..

All Yule Need & Christmas Sampler

      

I have lots of these little jester socks coloured in. They are soooo therapeutic to colour and you can do them while you watch tv.  I also coloured in some of the socks on the bottom left and the more traditional stocking just above it, eek.  I LOVE Christmas!

I hope you have a fab Saturday whatever you are doing.  We have friends coming over today so I’m guessing it’s gonna be a little hectic!

Happy Halloweenies!

Hi there.  It’s Ruby.  I have a couple of Halloween cards to share with you today.  Do you celebrate Halloween?


Both cards use the Paper Smooches ‘Halloweenies’ set.  The little speech bubble was taken from the new Christmas set, Paper Smooches All Yule Need.  See the little bauble top left, I used that. (I can’t take the credit, it was my bestie’s idea!)



Sorry the picture quality isn’t that great, I took the pic at night. That hour time change makes such a difference!

Happy Halloween! Hope you have fun if you’re celebrating. Personally this isn’t my favourite celebration because I have a phobia of people in masks so I look as white as my ghost if someone turns up on my doorstep with a mask on! I stay indoors and just make/eat pumpkin soup and send my hubby Ian to the door instead!
