James Pile of Presents - Lili of the Valley DT

Good Morning Everyone, 
I'm out at a craft fair today but as it's Remembrance Sunday I will certainly be joining in the 2 minutes silence. 

Although there are some horrendous things happening around the world, the majority of us are extremely lucky to live the lives we do.

I have a card to share today using James - Pile of Presents.

This is a 7" square card, so I was able to print James out a little bit bigger - for me, this is one of the big advantages of using digi stamps. I've coloured him with promarkers and the background papers are from First Edition.
I've used a Creative Expressions poinsettia die and a computer generated sentiment.

Christmas angels - Lili of the Valley DT

Good Morning Everyone, 
I have a few candles to share today. I've used 3 of my favourite angel stamps from Lili of the Valley. I've used the rubber stamps of Christmas Angel Flying and Christmas Angel Praying.

Although the rubber stamps have been discontinued, two of the angels are now available as digital stamps and you can find them here...Christmas Angel Flying, Christmas Angel Praying.
I've coloured them with promarkers, and added a few liquid pearls for the berries.
The candle wreath was from a local shop in last year's January sale.
