All About RED
Welcome to the second Lawn fawn Blog Hop and welcome to my crafty blog if you haven't visited before, it's lovely to have you here :)
The theme of the hop is 'All about Red' and you should have arrived here from Kelly's blog, the complete list of participants can be found on the Lawnscaping blog in case you get lost along the way :)
The hop runs for the whole weekend so you have lots of time to take in the wonderful projects and maybe win a prize too just by leaving a comment on each blog, our sponsors are Mold Muse, Whisker Graphics and of course Lawn Fawn :)
So onto my Red makes and I have a card which follows a red and white theme by using the snowflakes from Frosties to make my own styled 'Faux Washi tape' with tissue paper and double sided sticky tape using this tutorial here. I stamped and fussy cut two snowflakes to stack as an embellishment for the sentiment and added some glitter dust too, hope you like it..... (sorry about the photo quality still having issues with my settings!!)
Not content with just a card I decided to have a go at making a Christmas cracker which also doubles as a place setting for the Christmas dinner table ( I only had chance to make one, but I'll be sure to make the rest before Christmas) I followed this tutorial here and found it really simple to do
The cute little bunny is so sweet to work with and place in a snowy scene...do you see I used the small branch from 'Ornate Ornaments' to make a fir tree :)
So I've tried to keep it short and sweet for you, it's a busy time of the year!, and now it's time to head on over to Erin's blog, I'm sure there will be an awesome project waiting to greet you there :)
Remember, to start the hop from the beginning or see what amazing prizes are up for grabs then head over to the Lawnscaping blog :)
I'm entering the cracker into this weeks ColourQ challenge and the card into Jay Gees Nook photo inspiration :)
Thanks for joining in the hop and Here's wishing you....... a Happy and Peaceful Christmas :)
