I decided that today was a good day to look back over my favourite projects of 2019. Once again I have managed to keep up my daily blog, helped tremendously this year by the over 200 projects completed as a design team member for Claritystamp. I am so grateful that Barbara Gray asked me to join such a prestigious team.
This is my January favourite (see HERE for details). It was also my first project to make it onto one of the Clarity sample boards that are used for shows.
I was reminded about some stamps that I bought in the Gray Day sale recently by a blog post from Barbara Gray. I decided to have a play myself on a tag.
I made this Thank You card for my parents who hosted us all over Christmas. We had an amazing time. It also gave me an excuse to play with my new Clarity Mixed Impressions Texture stamps which arrived shortly before the holidays.
As I had used the Clarity floral alphabet to decorate my Mum's birthday gift, I decided to make a card to match.
I used the two of the Clarity floral alphabet stamps to monogram two candles. They fitted perfectly into a gift basket for my Mum's birthday today.
I made these all in one Christmas cards and wallets for gift cards as we decided to let the 'children' choose their own 'big' presents this year. I used four of the stamps from the 'Twas the night Before Christmas stamp sets from Claritystamp.
Just a quick join in with the weekly desk share today to wish all my family and friends a Merry Christmas. My desk this morning shows last minute Christmas card writing to give to family when we see them later.
I shall be linking in to The Stamping Ground and visiting our hostess Julia as usual for a Wednesday. The celebrations actually started yesterday with my husband's birthday and will continue until my Mum's birthday on the 27th.
I have cheated with this desk shot as the photo was taken early yesterday morning when I was working on a last minute card and gift for my Mum using the floral alphabet from Claritystamp. More will be revealed on Friday and Saturday if you'd like to pop back and see what I made. I posted 15 samples off on Monday so will have plenty of blog posts for the new year, starting on 5th January.
Wishing you all a happy healthy Christmas with family or friends and hoping that those who find this time of year difficult peace and warm wishes. Happy WOYWW for the last time in 2019! And finally... if you would like a laugh, our school made its own version of the Jump Around video this year. I was told to look miserable at the start of the video (I think I nailed it lol).
This is my January favourite (see HERE for details). It was also my first project to make it onto one of the Clarity sample boards that are used for shows.
