I've been making some more Christmas cards (well, it has to be done...) Just going to show a couple here for now. The black and white one was made with left over bits from a challenge to make a card using black and white, with ribbon only adding any other colour. Hared than it sounds as I had to fight against adding a brad, or a flower etc! I can't count this card though as the backing paper, stars and pots add too much in the way of "extras"
Another card made for a commission, this one an egagement card. There is no blue on it despite how it looks - the light must have caught on the silver edge as I was taking the photo! I had loads of bother with this - it started off with a fuchsia rather than dark red colour on the B&W baackground but no matter how much stuff I got out I couldn't find the right embellishments to work with it. Went back to my favourite dark red and hey presto!
The cards are brill Kathy! The christmas trees are fab. Love the engagement one too. The B&W&G with the deep red is stunning :)

Lovely cards, Kathy. Would never have thought of pink and green for christmas but it looks amazing.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards Kathy.x
ReplyDeleteLove the cards.
ReplyDeleteCoincidentally I had suggested to one of my daughters that she uses the triangular christmas tree idea this year, which appealed to her. So now I can show her yours, for inspiration, as the modern colours may appeal to her, as we were probably thinking along traditional colours to begin with
Great blog Kathy, I have thoroughly enjoyed looking at your beautiful pieces of work on here.
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by my blog :-)
