Christmas Preparations and huge discount on my on-line Journal Class

It's always a joy to be reading blogs at this time of year

as bloggers start to share their Christmas

preparations and gifts they have 

been making. These are just a few of my more recent

ornaments and cards. 

Madonna and Child are always amongst the

images I use

as well as vintage angels

 

and these ones have been used on both cards

 

 as well as Christmas ornaments

embellished with vintage laces, rhinestones, pearl

buttons and tassels.

 

 

 

rusted stars and silver and gold

appliques. 

 

The pure white silk tops have been used

in these cards to create the feeling 

of freshly fallen snow! 

 

 

 

 

Several hours are represented in these pieces 

in the hope of bringing joy to the

hearts of many! 

 

 

♥♥♥♥♥

On another note with it being Christmas I thought I would

offer a huge reduction of 50% off my on-line

class teaching my Fabric and Lace Book at

Creative Workshops "Peaceful and Pondering". 

So here is your chance to gift yourself for Christmas

the where withall to create 

 a book of your very own in your own unique style.

 and

to help inspire you in this direction here are a few

 books and pages from books I have created!!! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 ♥♥♥

I sincerely hope all of your own preparations

are going well whether they are grand

or simple like my own.

It is all about keeping peace within and remembering

the true meaning of what Christmas represents.

Enjoy this Festive Season

and

thank you for visiting again!

You are all appreciated by myself and I hope to be posting 

again very soon!

Simply Neutrals Tuesday No. 8

Simply Neutrals Tuesday is already up to

its 8th week and today I'm sharing

a couple of cards which I

have just finished creating and are listed in my Etsy shop.

There is always something so special when creating with angels

and this Vintage angel is one I've had in my collection

now for sometime.

 

 

 

The winged angel is partially hidden beneath

a layer of silk organza

bearing a stencil of a cherub angel

which has been plastered onto the silk. 

 

 

 This second one is of a vintage child on her knees on her bed praying!

 

 

 The look in her eyes stole my heart!

 Thank you dear Wen for being our host for this party once again.

Take care, rest and recover soon so you can pickup

your artwork again where you last left off!

Wen is sharing some beautiful lace and linen journal pages

as well as some other beautiful Christmas cards 

and creations there!

Go here if you would like to see them all.

Enjoy!

Creating for Christmas already???????

 It seems no time at all since I was creating for Christmas

last season and here we are again!

Something to do with the older we get the faster time flies!!!

but at least I have been having fun

and

to show what I have been up to in my studio 

here are

some new cards to celebrate the occasion once again.

 There is a mix of vintage angel images and cherub angels

like this one where I have used a beautiful stencil

with plaster onto silk organza.

These pieces have been sewn on to oval cards.

 

 

 With this first one I created a type of crazy patchwork

of vintage and antique laces and embroidered linen in the background and then embellished with

some lace applique

and

this one has a background of felted bamboo cotton with layers

of felted chiffon and then embellished with lace fabrics.

 

 The next one shows a very sweet winged angel from

 The Graphics Fairy

(thank you Karen!)

 

 on layers of vintage fabrics and felted chiffon.

 

 and this last one of a praying child

on her knees on her bed

which I simply could not resist sharing!

 

These are now in my Etsy Shop!

Click on the link and it will take you to the shop

with more images and info.

Many thanks for your kind visits as always and for

always continuing to leave such sweet comments.

Love and hugs,

A Few Last Creations for 2014

Hello dear Bloggers!

I hope that your Christmas was filled with all the

 

things you were hoping for along with a little rest and time

with your loved ones.

I know I am late with this post

due to the fact I was so busy filling orders in my Etsy shop

but I thought I might

share a few cards, collages and tags

which I created for various friends and family

for Christmas.

Some of these Angel images I used more than once to create

tags or cards such as these.

There was even a Birthday card created in there in December too!

 

Finally another Angel card and an Angel collage.

Well I think that will be all the Angel and Madonna cards,

collages and tags that I will be creating for a few

months to come and next I will be able to

share with you some gifts that I

received from friends

over Christmas.

As this will be my last post for the year I wish to sincerely

thank you all so much for your visits and

for leaving such kind and encouraging comments  -

I am just so grateful to you for allowing me into your own worlds and for enriching my life so very much!

The friendships gained have been very precious indeed

as well as all the sharing and inspiration!!!
