I'm so very glad the weekend is here although I'm actually teaching for most of the day today. I'm up on the CrafTangles blog with a post on making your own Christmas toppers for cards.
I had a bit of a production line going and to begin with I die cut some shapes and made all the toppers using images from a stencil together with distress inks.
So for my first card I gave the Christmas tree and ombre effect and added washi tape, lime green card and a sentiment to finish.
For my next card I used the fun candy cane image and created 3 toppers adding a sentiment to finish.
My final card uses the deer image which I inked in milled lavender and weathered wood distress inks. I really liked the subtle effect it gave to the topper.
I finished off with a sentiment and co-ordinating papers.
There's more of an in depth tutorial HERE if you want to know more about how I created these cards.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend and hopefully see you next week!
