Christmas Card

Tuesday Taggers are making projects about light this week. In our Christian Terminology we talk about being the Light in the Darkness, and about Jesus being the Light of the World. This is all about a little baby boy who became a man, and that man conquered sin and death, his name is Jesus. So I've finished colouring the Baby Jesus image from Digital Delights, and put it on a Christmas Card for this challenge.

I is for Indigo at ABC this week, so I've used an indigo glitter card blank for my card base.

Folks are going glittery at DU2DS. The card blank is glittery, and I outlined the star with a yellow glitter gel pen.

I'm using this week's sketch from Friday Sketchers. Over at Trimcraft the Christmas Card challenge this week is no red/green/silver/gold and at least one star. I've replaced the circles in the sketch with stars.

I doodled the border using a white pencil crayon.

And it's plaid, brads and no ribbons for the Pink Elephant challenge. The stars were cutout of plaid paper with a Fiskars punch and have copper brads through the centre.

X-ray has been postponed

My little Tisha was supposed to have an X-ray this week to find out why at 1 1/2 years she cannot stand-up and holds her legs in the flex position. A recent development has enabled us to postpone the X-ray, with the possibility of cancelling it all together.

Thank you God.

Colouring Homework

It's the 4th week of my 4 week Copics Colouring course a the Cuttlebug University. Tuesday night's class (I didn't get to see it until yesterday evening) was about shading and shadowing images with the light source at the front rather than to one side. And we were also shown how to depict white. Here is my homework. This is the Cute baby Jesus digi-stamp image by Digital Delights.

Happy Thanksgiving

I hope all my American Friends have a great day today full of blessings.

Calendar

The Challenge this week at Saturday Challenge is to make a Calendar. Which is a super coincidence, as the project I was planning for the final Creating Gifts Throughout 2009 Challenge at RAKScraps is a Calendar.

Here is the one I have made.


The scrapbooking part was done digitally. Before it closed, our local framing shop sold scraps of mounting board (from the centre of frame cutouts) for 10p each. I still had a dark green piece the perfect size for this calendar. So I mounted my printout onto the board before adding the calendar stub.

You can download free instructions and template for making this using digital scrapbooking at this thread on the forum.

And do pop back to my blog on Friday for a free calendar making kit for 2010 for both digital scrapbookers and paper crafters. (Free on Friday only.)
