Snowy scene Christmas card


I have used Centura card and lovely glitter card to matt and layer my 8x8in white card. I die cut a scalloped circle with an Xcut die. I cut this from the centre of the layer before attaching it to my card because the white card is going over it you cant see the gap and it saves card. I cut the various buildings and trees using Marianne dies. I cut circle using a Go Kreate die and cut it in half. I added all the elements to the blue scalloped circle using glue and foam pads. I die cut the snowflakes using a Cheery Lynn die. I printed a personalised sentiment and die cut it will a die from The Works then completed my card with flat backed gems.

Bauble Christmas Card


This is a Christmas card for my Mother and Father-in-law. My Mother-in-law always like cards to match her colour scheme. I have made this one using the Sue Wilson weaving die. I weaved one piece with silver mirror card and Centura turquoise card. I have die cut the baubles using a Spellbinders nesting set. I have attached the bauble aperture to the weaving and carefully cut around it. There is enough weaving on one die cut to be able to do the three baubles. The card is matt and layered with mirror card, turquoise card and then white embossed card. I embossed the white card with a Crafts Too embossing folder, I added ribbon from the top of the card to the bauble. I die cut the poinsettia using Marianne dies. I completed my card with flat backed gems on the poinsettia and flat backed pearls on the embossing.

Deer card


These cute deer are always very popular for little girls. They are one of my favourite dies,

I have matt and layered my 8x8in white card with tan and pink card, I rounded the corners of these layers with a punch. I have embossed white card and attached that to the top of my card. Using different widths of green card , I have die cut the one side with a Memory Box die to create layers of grass. Before putting the final layer on I have added a fence that I cut in brown using a Memory Box die. I die cut the tree using a Memory Box die and added it to my card sticking the bottom behind the top layer of grass. I die cut the deer using Marianne dies. I assembled the deer and then added them to my card tucking them between the layers of grass. I die cut the flowers using a Cheery Lynn die and attached the small flowers to the tree and the larger flowers amongst the grass. I completed with tiny flat backed pearls in the centre of the larger flowers.

Winter scene Christmas card


I have matt and layered my 8x8in white card with blue glitter card and white pearl card. I have die cut the blue scalloped circle using a Xcut die from the blue layer before attaching it to my card. I have die cut a circle using a Go Kreate die in the white layer before attaching it to my card. I attached the scalloped circle to my card. I cut the circle in half and attached the semi circle to my card. I die cut various elements to create a village scene using Marianne dies. I added Tonic Nuvo glitter accents to the roof tops for a snowy effect. I die cut snowflakes in blue and white with a Cheery Lynn die and added them to my card. I completed my card with flat backed gems.

Thank you card

I have finally sorted my internet problems and can start blogging again.

Here is my project for the November challenge at crafty Hazelnut's Patterned Paper



I have matt and layered my 8x8in card with pink card then white embossed card and patterned paper. I have used patterned paper from Lidl and a Crafts Too embossing folder. I put pink satin ribbon across my card where the patterned paper and embossed card meet. I have printed a sentiment and die cut it with a Sue Wilson die. I then cut the other elements in pink and assembled them before adding them to my card along with a flourish that I cut with a Cheery Lynn die. I completed my card with flat backed pearls.
