Paper Angel...

My share today is one that we finished the year off with in our Technique Class - Christmas Paper Angel.  Create a heap of them in all different sizes & colours & hang from your Christmas Tree.  The list is endless in how you could adjust this little angel to create something unique.

I will admit it is not my idea, I actually found it on Pinterest, but when I went back to find it, check to see if there was a tutorial & link it back, no luck.  Please let me know if you recognize this angel as I would love to give you credit for it.  Thank you so much for your inspiration!

As I didn't save the picture & had no instructions, I sort of started out blind.  I played for sometime until I got it just right or to how I remembered it looking.  I actually used DSP for my angel, whereas the one I saw was Pool Party, I think!

I have used a retired punch for the heart, but it is easy to replace with any current shape, including the Fashionable Hearts Embosslits.

The tutorial will be on my FREE TUTORIAL Page if you want to re-create it!

SC 094/13...

Our new challenge is up & running over at Sunny Challenges & Creations. 

 

All you have to do is share something that you have created for the Christmas Season.  Maybe you have created your own decorations, table settings, boxes, banner, scrapbook page, etc. 

 

For my first sample, I decided to do a couple of scrapbook pages ready in time for Christmas Day. I am really happy with how they turned out.  Today is Page 1 of the pages which will fit a 5" x 7" photo with a small white border.

 

Supplies -

Stamp Set - Morning Post Numbers

Ink - Crumb Cake

Cardstock - Whisper White, Textured Old Olive

DSP - Season of Style

Ribbon - 1" Stitched Edge Grosgrain - Cherry Cobbler

Washi Tape - Season of Style

Accessories - Snail Adhesive, Paper Piercing Mat & Tool

 

I cut 2 strips of DSP into 2" wide x 11" while the 3rd strip was 2" x 12" & adhered them to the RHS of the Old Olive Textured CS.  I just love Textured CS for scrapbooking!

 

A 5 1/4" x 7 1/4" piece of Whisper White CS was adhered over the strips of DSP.  I stamped "2013" onto a piece of Whisper White CS 1 1/2" x 5 1/2" using Crumb Cake Ink.  Prior to adhering to the page, a "V" was cut from one end.

 

With my Paper Piercing Mat & Tool I pierced a double layer around the Whisper White Mat.  A bow was tied from the Cherry Cobbler Ribbon & the adhered to the RHS of the year.

 

I then adhered a couple of strips of Washi Tape to the top LHS of the page.  I also placed a piece of Whisper White, cut into a banner for a little bit of journaling.

 

All in all a very simple page, but one that represents Christmas!

 

We know everyone is busy at this time of the year, so we have extended this challenge out to the new year, which means you have lots of extra time to play along.  We would love for you to link your creation or creations with us.  All you have to do is post it on line & then link back to Mr Linky.

 

Until next time, Happy Stampin'!
