Here are a couple of projects I've recently made both very different styles. The first is a Tag as I love making Tags too
I've used Tim Holtz products on this tag apart form the reindeer papers which were from my stash and the Believe die which is from Hot off the Press.
I'm adding this tag into the following challenges:
Christmas Card Throwdown - Santa and Friends
Stamping Sensations - Christmas
We love Stamping - Christmas
Jingle Belles - Inspired by their banner
Try it on Tuesday - Traditional Christmas
My second card is a complete contrast to the tag above. I've used the lovely Pinecone stamp set by Tracy Evans and made it into a watercolour card with very soft stamping. All inks are Tim Holtz Distress Oxides. I wanted it to have a very wintry feel and I really think it worked. There is snow added with paint to the top of the branches and the pinecone and a smattering of Spectrum Noir Sparkle pen to make it shine.
I'm adding this into the following challenges:
Allsorts - Trees and Leaves
Less is More - Outside
Inkspirational - the wintry feel of their image
Krafty Chicks - CAS
ABC Christmas - W for White snow
The holly and Ivy - Christmas AG

Gorgeous use of this pine branch image, Fiona! Many thanks for sharing your project at Allsorts and playing with the Trees & Leaves option.
Hi Fiona, thanks for playing along at 'Less Is More' with your fab card. However there seems to be little 'white space' to be truly CAS which is a requirement of LIM ..... Sid xx
I’m a big fan of Tim Holtz as well! Need to hide my credit card when he releases new products. Lol! I love the watercolours in your card. Delighted to have you join us at Krafty Chicks Challenge for CAS week.

A super Santa on the tag, thanks so much for sharing at our November themes at Stamping Sensations and We Love Stamping challenges. Great second card for Allsorts, one of my fav A&C's, but I cold be biased!

Such an beautiful and artful card and you've used so many of the elements from our Jingle Belles blog banner beautifully! Thanks for joining our fun this fortnight!
Beautiful card and tag. However, we'd love to see a little bit more white space on your card to be considered as CAS but thank you for sharing your beautiful creation at Less is More. Hugs, Valérie
