Happy New Years!

Hi all! Can you believe it's the last day of 2014 ???! Wow, what a busy six weeks it's been!  My craft room was a glittery disaster area! I managed to find some time last week to tackle the mess, and dig out my paper crafting supplies! They were hid under rolls and rolls of decomesh and ribbon.... but now they regained their rightful place in my room! *** happy dance*** I still am looking for my creative mojo , but I did get a few pages completed. Take a look...



 
I used Prima North Woods collection papers, which I  randomly stamped with a Tim Holtz Christmas stamp (Christmas Blueprint). For texture I used Finnabair /Prima Texture Paste in Platinum Crackle and a custom made polka dot stencil ( Silhouette machine), and then splatters of red and tinsel spray ink ( Heidi Swapp) and then more stenciling! this time I used Tim Holtz  tarnished brass Distress Stain on a 6X6 The Crafters Workshop stencil ( mini sketch grid). Finally, a few flowers from Prima and embellishments from Teresa Collins, Zva rhinestone flourishes   and sequins from an unknown source. Bits of glitter were added, thanks to Wink of Stella brush pens,on the reindeer, snowflake , flowers and the pine branches . I'm not much for journaling ( I know, terrible!!!) so I just added  Thicker numbers for the year.
 
 



This page was actually started three months ago! I love Graphic 45 paper lines , especially this one ... Couture. It didn't need much, just a few Prima chipboard accents and flowers from Petaloo and a vintage looking feather from Bella Blvd. I finished it up by adding a few rhinestones ( adhered with my Silhouette heat tool) and a glitter tape  strip by American Crafts. Of course, there's a bit of stenciling on the base layer!!
 
I hope you have a wonderful New Year's !!
