christmas mittens

It is tracey here with my mid month inspiration post for Craft-DeeBowz . Christmas is a time for batch making quick easy cards for charity or even to send out to friends and family we might not get to meet this year . i have made this quick abnd easy card using a sweet mittens stamp from Chloe . I stamped and heat embossed the mittens with gold wow powder and also did the same technique with the snowflake stamps i had free from a magazine and a sentiment from my stash .

i used some packaging for behind the mittens. i added little twine bows made using my craft-deebowz bowmaking tool. i rounded card edges and added some gems and that was it really ... very simple to create and would look great in any colour combination

I hope you like my project and that you have a go creating it yourself ..
