Gnomie Christmas!

For noen dager siden fikk jeg en svær pakke fra USA og Simon Says Stamps med masse spesielle dies/stempler (ikke solgt noen andre steder enn hos dem eller vanskelig å får tak i ellers), bla. denne kjempesøte gnomen ♥ Har hatt lyst på den lengelenge, og da jeg skulle lage mitt DT bidrag så måtte jeg teste den og lagde dermed julekort i juni! Kortene er litt mixed media stil da jeg har gnikket (og splættet) gullvoks på dem.

Creative Fingers #210. er denne gangen sponset av vår DT Angelique med en flott premie! Dermed har vi hatt fritt frem med kreasjonene. Som alltid har vi et 'Lag-hva-du-vil' tema, og velkommen skal du være!  :)

 

My DT inspiration for this fortnights challenge #210. at Creative Fingers, are theese two Gnomie Christmascards! Recently I got a huge package full of goodies all the way from Simon Says Stamps in USA ~ an awesome company btw ~ and finally this little gnome die is mine! So ofcourse I had to try it out, even though its a bit early for christmascards lol :) They're a bit mixed media with gilding flakes, gold wax both rubbed & splattered on them.

Creative Fingers is sponsored with a fab prize from our Angelique. As always it is an 'Anything goes theme', and you are more than welcome to join with your creations ♥

 The 'god jul' diecuts are cut out from a piece of cardstock with Viva Decor Inka Gold wax 'Gold' on, wich I also had rubbed on the edges of my cardstock. Then the leftover wax I had on my Tim Holtz Tonic Glass Media Mat was watered down and I flicked on drops of the gold with my Tim Holtz Distress Splatter Brush.
