Last month I had the chance to get, for the first time, a couple of Cardmaking & papercraft  magazines: Papercraft Inspirations and Make Christmas card magazine. Papercraft Inspiration December issue had a Christmas window build-a-scene embossing folder and stamp free gift, as well as  free festive papers . Make Christmas cards was offering:  2 embossing folder borders ,  13 stylish stamps ,  32 Christmas papers ,  12 découpage sheets ,  117 toppers & motifs and  73 festive greetings. Here you have some of the cards and tags I've made with the magazines' gifts All cards have been donated to hospitals 

I made this card for a Halloween contest .  I chose a non-standard size   (20 cm x 20 cm) and  many different materials (craft paper, glitter paper, twine, cardstock, inks, watercolors, alcohol markers and more) I die cut and stamped pumpkins, ghosts and bats with the  Die-namics/ My Favourite Things   Halloween set. Last year, I used this same set to make an explosion box ( HERE ).  For the black background, I wanted something in stark contrast, but still within the range of classic Halloween colors!  1) I dabbed a gauze onto a white ink pad and then on the paper  2) I dripped white watercolor onto the paper by tapping the tip of a wet brush.  I've printed Halloween rhymes  on craft paper I've designed and colored the dance floor with alcohol-based markers   The mummies are digital stamps from Glimps Flag banner, stroboscopic light and spiderweb are all hand  cut/handmade. ...
