A Couple of Last Minute Cards


These are two of my 'last minute' batch cards which I've made over the past couple of days.  Both of them were made with Paper Artsy JOFY stamps.

The first one (above) was made using JOFY Mini 2.  I stamped the design on to kraft paper and then paper pieced the start to match my background paper.  I finished if off with some glitter glue around the frame of the design.


Next I've used JOFY Mini 1 again stamped on kraft paper.  I coloured the tree with Promarkers and added glitter glue to the frame around the design.

I'd like to enter my cards in the following challenges:

Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge - 'last minute Christmas'
C is for Challenge - 'modern Christmas' (first card)
A Creative Romance - 'sparkle at Christmas' (second card)
Craftitude - 'anything goes/Christmas sparkle' (second card)
Sisterhood of Crafters - 'Christmas sparkle' (second card)
Try It On Tuesday - 'trees' (second card)
The Stamping Boutique - 'paper piecing' (first card)
Totally Papercrafts - 'Christmas in non-traditional colours'
