Flurry of Wishes Christmas Card

I have another simple card to share, which is made using the stamp set "Flurry of Wishes". It is an easy card to put together and adding the bling gives it an elegant feel.





Cookie-Cutter Christmas Card

I am glad the "Cookie-Cutter Christmas" stamp set is still available to purchase. This was one of my favourite sets from last year, and I wanted to share a cute little gingerbread man card with you all. I have done this layout style before, as it is a nice easy layout to replicate.

Santa & Rudolph Fries Boxes

When I purchased the 'Fries Box' die some time ago, I new straight away that I would make some cute little Christmas projects with it. You can also see my Easter Bunny Box I made using the same techniques.

These cute boxes make the perfect little gift for a teacher, a work colleague and kids. Fill them up with some yummy treats and you have a unique one of a kind gift for someone.

 





Winter Memories Christmas Card

I purchased several of the Stampin Up digital stamp sets before they retired them, and I'm glad I did. This card was made using the 'Winter Memories' digital stamp set.

I enlarged the skates image and printed it on whisper white, smoky slate, chocolate chip and old olive card stock, then did plenty of fussy cutting and layering. I finished the card off with a Christmas sentiment, some snowflakes (not SU) and rhinestones (not SU).

I made this card some time ago, but if I were to do it again, I would use the new 'Stampin Blends' instead of printing on various coloured cardstock and layering it together, which would save a lot more time.





Winter Trees Christmas Cards

Well, it was an extremely busy last couple of months for 2017, and I am way behind on sharing regular posts with you all.....my apologies!

For my next few posts, I will be playing a bit of 'catch up', and will be sharing many Christmas cards and some unique gift boxes.

Below are couple of cards I made using the Hero Arts 'Winter Trees' stamp. Normally I would stick to using Stampin Up products, but I wanted to use some Kaleidacolor inks that I had purchased from a craft show that I recently attended. The 'Winter Trees' stamp was a perfect match for using the new inks.
