Scrapmatts - Christmas Creations

Well it's that time of the year, and hasn't it come up so fast... I can't believe Christmas is only a few weeks away!!!  This month the theme for Scrapmatts is everything Christmas and I've had such fun creating an OTP, some cards and a LO with the gorgeous Chrissy chippies which were sent in my parcel of goodies.

Christmas Lantern

I purchased this lantern last year with the intention of creating an OTP, but of course put it away and forgot all about it.  So when I came across it recently I decided I would create a Christmas Lantern with it and use it as a centre piece.   I love the colour red, so what better way to use it than on a Christmas project.  some gorgeous mulberry Poinsettias from my2angels, which came in a bag with red and white flowers in various size were the perfect embellishment and so yummy.  I fussy cut some flower sprays from Basic Grey Jovial which are one of my all time fav Christmas ranges and randomly poked in some berry sprays.   I made the Scrapmatts Christmas Ornaments sparkle with some Tim Holtz stickles in red and green and placed them in  amongst the flowers.  To finish off I added the Merry Christmas chippie words which I cut from the Christmas Scene chippie and altered with ultrafine white glitter.  Really love how this came out.

All is Merry and Bright

Adore the reindeer chippies... just love the curly antlers, and thought they would go perfectly with these pics of Brittany wearing some cute reindeer antlers!!  I embossed, inked and glittered them with stickles and used the little dangles from one of the new my2angels charming chains around the reindeer's neck.  The papers are from Girls Paperie Tinsel and Twig and I used more the the Basic Grey Jovial.  The gorgeous charm is made by Tracy at my2angels.  I took off the 2011 charm and made my own with some the Holly and the Joy Circle charms, also from my2angels.

Merry Christmas Card

For this card I used a 6x6 paper pad from MME.  I decided to use one piece of a Christmas Tree 3D Ornament.  I filled in the slot with a scrap of chipboard, but you could use cardstock, then covered it with some gorgeous Barbara Trombley's glitter glass in green and copper... so quick and easy.

Merry and Bright Card

Used the same MME paper pad with half of an Ornate 3D Christmas Ornament, which I cut in half and placed on the top and bottom of my background paper and again covered in glitter glass but used red this time.  I also used the reindeer chippie which I embossed, inked and glittered with some Tim Holtz stickles.

Happy Holidays Card

Again with the MME paper pad, and some LYB and Scenic Route pp's layered for the background.  I used the Santa's Sleigh and Holly chippies which I altered with some fine glitter in green and red.  The red rhinestone trim is available from my2angels.

Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving some love :))
