Christmas Wishes and a Wedding using Robin's Nest Products

Hi everyone.. Bev here today. First I'd like to share the news.. that I am returning for another term to the Robin's Nest amazing DT team.. and am excited to get the chance to create with the fabulous products... be sure to visit regularly so you can see what we all have to reveal for you.

So now Welcome to my Robin's Nest December post.
 Starting off I have this Season's Greeting card.

The centre core is a faux pinwheel and here is the link on how to make it.

http://songofmyheartstampers.typepad.com/song_of_my_heart_stampers/2009/05/faux-pinwheel-card-tutorial-.html

I used Robin's Nest paper: Hunter Classic Glitter Cardstock with gold glitter and Sour Apple Classic Glitter to make the pinwheel... and my squares are 1" each.. went small to fit the card inside the doiley.

Up close you can see the fine details... the stamping, starform sticker. Gina's Design doily and stack up element (chipboard sentiment) along with Robin's Nest dew drops and paper.

Supply List:
Robin's Nest Products: paper Hunter Classic and Sour Apple Glitter Cardstock, Dew Drops
Reddy Creative Starform Stickers: #1223
Gina's Design: cardstock doiley Set 1, Stack up Elements Set 1
Other: stamped and inked background, washi tape, Liquid Pearls

Next up is another Christmas card.

The base on this card is Robin's Nest Sour Apple Classic, the Kreaxions Punched border is  

Hunter Classic Glitter Cardstock with gold glitter and the Strips is the  Vellum Glitter.

The Letters are the Robin's Nest Glitter Letters and the 

bottom link of Clear Diamond Dew Drops are a great base border.

Supply List:

Robin's Nest Products: paper Sour Apple Glitter Cardstock, Hunter Classic, Vellum Glitter, Clear Diamond Dew Drops, Glitter Letters

*************************************************

The next project is a Season's Greeting card.

On the Robins' Nest White Glitter Snow Flake Cardstock base I ink stamped

some coloured snowflakes to add more colour. 

I used lots of matting for layers of colour...using Glittered Cardstock. 

I stamped the sentiment and matted again using Chipboard Glittered.

I added the bow tied ribbon and added some Winter Glitter Chipboard Snowflakes

then finished off with Metalic Dew Drops accents.

****************************************

and next but not least I worked with our December's Sponsors Products.. 

 Reddy Creative Cards using the 3D Stanzbogen die cuts and Starform Stickers.

Mixing the sponsor's products with Robin's Nest Papers, stones and letters I 

created this Wedding Page.

What a fabulous mix of products to create this layout. 

The background and matted photo is Glittered Cardstock.

The accent paper behind the clustered accents is Vellum Silver Swirls.

In the closeups below I'll share some of the details.

This clustered section has Gina's Design Doily's, Ornamental Birdcages and Stack Up Elements

along with Reddy Creative Cards Starform Stickers and the 3D Stanzbogan Die Cut.

Amid the hearts are Clear Diamond Dew Drops.

This closeup shows the birdcage, Glitter Letters and Starform stickers 

and you can see the doodled stitches.

These last 2 close ups show the details of the Reddy Creative Card 3D Stanzbogen Die Cuts... amazing and beautiful layers and details.
