Christmas Party Invite...

 Here's a Christmas party invitation made for a commission for Papercraft Inspirations Magazine....


The gorgeous letterpressed snowflake is a Fiskars fuse die cut, and the kraft tag is liberally sprinkled with Frantage Shabby White embossing enamel to look like snow.... the music page was taken from a musical score book I picked up at a charity shop


What an exciting life I am leading at the moment - the highlight of my day yesterday was yet another eye test, this time to determine what lens I need in my 'other' eye on Monday, but I did take time to go for a pamper session at the hairdressers, so it's all still a bit self indulgent and slow going here. I keep wandering towards my craft table, and drifting away again to aimlessly do nothing very much - hopefully my missing mojo will return along with my new eyes!

  4. Great invite. I really love that triple bow at the top of the tag. It adds such a bright spot of color.

  5. Lovely card Enfys - the texture of the 'snow' against the Kraft CS looks very effective.
    I'm sure once your other eye is sorted you will be back crafting like a good-un.

  6. What a lovely invite Enfys. Don't we all wish we could order up our mojo with a snap of the fingers - although I can't even do that now coz of arthritis in my thumb! I'm sure you will be itching to get back to your crafting once your other eye is sorted out. Pat x

  7. Beautiful card! Hope you find your mojo soon. We all have days when our craft mojo leaves us. Usually when it returns it comes back in full force.

  8. Love your party invitation! Thank you for sharing! It's so hard when we are in limbo, but it will all be good, sit back, enjoy and smell the roses (or coffee, or tea, LOL!).

  9. I'm sure your mojo will return. When mine takes a holiday it always turns up again. Usually like an unwanted relative. So I have to whip it into shape again. ;) I hope you are seeing well with the new eye. Glad you pampered yourself. We need to take care of ourselves.
    Love the card! Makes me smile.
    Hugs Jess
