A festive sighting on my desk...
I was spoilt for choice with which of my new purchases to play with first... and the IKEA teeny card blanks and SEI glittery winter accents won out. I have to say those Winter accents are very nice:
So here's what I made, nothing fancy quite simple really with just the red and white:
I added some dimensional glitter paint to the berries:
Hi Nat, thanks for popping by my blog, Im sorry I didnt get back to you yesterday about that title on my LO.
I covered the chipboard title in Tim Holtz Distress Ink and then I painted over the bottom half in Tim Holtz Crackle Paint, white too would you believe, the red of the distress ink bled through, totall accident, but I quite like it.
Love the card too!!

Hi Nat :-)
Just wanted to say thanks for mentioning the card blanks, we popped in to ikea today and I picked up a couple of packs, they're lovely aren't they, I love what you've done with them, much inspiration!
As for the pax, we have a double wardrobe and a single with the mirrored fronts, inside we have the trouser rail, and some baskets inclusing the shelf at the top, i've got to say that trouser rail is one fo the best things ever invented!!! it saves so much space and as you say i keep coats and dresses in the single one. Hope this helps!

Aw thanks everyone. :D
Yep, that Papertrey branch gets another outing, it is most handy and I seem to be liking simple at the moment. :oO
Jenny glad you managed to get some of the card packs, they even have an insert so I am doubly please to have bought some.
I am definitely wanting the trouser rail when I go pax, I have far more trousers and jeans than anything else. I'll be referring back to your when configuring my options. I think I am getting the Birgland plain white panelled single ones at either end and the two glass panelled ones for the centre... time will tell, we're a way off finally getting a Pax! But at least my chest of drawers is up and looking oh so lovely! :oD
