Christmas Cards - Part 1

Hi everyone. Now that ALL Christmas cards have been received, (some must have taken a scenic route to get to their destination 😃) I can finally share with you some of the cards I made from a Christmas Book Card kit called Specialties No. 3 from Find It Trading, Netherlands.


I thought I would share the first 3 with you today so as not to make this post too long.




 It was so much fun working on these cards.  I've completed 6 so far and plan to finish the others soon.  I got another one of these books for Christmas you see, so I want to get started on that one too :-)  It comes with 12 cards and uses a combination of stitching, hobby dots and a decoupage image as the focal point.

Thank you for visiting and spending a few minutes of your day with me.
I'll be back tomorrow with the other 3 cards from this kit. As for the remaining 6, I will share as I complete each one and add them my Christmas card stash for Christmas 2019 :-)

Crafty hugs,

  1. These are fabulous cards Lena - I love the stitched borders. I must also look out for the books as these would be great to put in my crafting box when we're away in our campervan.

  2. Oh, they look fantastic, Lena! Looking forward to see more of these... I’m curious, how long do you reckon it takes you to make one of these cards?

    1. Hi Pia. Thank you so much for your sweet comment. It takes me about 3 hours from start to finish. I don't do it all in one go. It's always a work in progress :-) It's great when I have to sit and wait for something or someone :-)
      Hugs,
      Lena
