Girly Christmas Card

 


I have used an 8x8in white card blank. I cut the front of the card blank in half (keep the removed piece).
I cut an piece of acetate to size and added it to the inside of  the front of the card blank. I added the removed piece of card onto the back of the front of the card so the attached side of acetate is sandwiched between the two pieces of white card. I cut the patterned paper to size to add to the inside of the card and the front panel of the card. I stamped and die cut the heart, gingerbread man and gingerbread house using Craft Buddy stamps and dies. I coloured these elements and added crystals to them. I stamped a sentiment and die cut it with a die from a Craft Buddy oval nesting set. I cut the decorative element from the nesting set in mirror card to mount the sentiment before attaching it to the acetate. I die cut the ovals again and added them to the reverse of the acetate for a neat finish.

Nadolig Llawen (Merry Christmas) Decoration

I attached the patterned card to the heart with Premium Glue. I filed around the sides of the heart.

40th Birthday Exploding Box

 


I made this box and lid using a die set from Crafters Companion. To decorate the heart on each of the corners I drew around the inside edge of the die to create a layer of patterned card. I cut squares of patterned paper to size to add to the box sides. I die cut the celebrate and party using Crafters companion dies. I printed personalised sentiments and die cut them with dies from a nesting set from The Works and added them to larger die cuts before attaching them to my box. I made a "cake" using a strip of card and two circles. I added a bow to the front of the cake which I cut with a Cheery Lyn die. I cut the numbers and today with Tattered Lace dies. I added the elements to a small piece of strong acetate. I folded the acetate and attached it to the top of the cake so they would stand up.

Anniversary Exploding Box

 


I have used Crafters Companion Exploding box dies to make this creation. I die cut the box sides in white card. I drew on the pink metallic cut using the inside of the die, drawing on the inside allowed slightly smaller panels so it left a border like you do when you matt and layer your projects. I added the die cuts. I printed personalised sentiments which I cut with a die from a nesting set from The Works. I added the teddy with hot glue. I bought the teddy from a local floristry supplies.

Nutcracker Christmas Card

 


I cut the front of my 8x8in white card in half (keep the removed half safe)

I added acetate to the back of the front on my card and then added the removed half onto the back to cover to create a neat finish.

I coloured the image with pens. I added Craft Buddy magic glue to the design and then added crystals. I cut the ovals using Craft Buddy dies and stamped a sentiment to the ovals before attaching them to the acetate of my card. I added the same ovals onto the back of the acetate for a neat finish.
