Father Christmas

Well the excitement is rising in our house as we eagerly await the arrival of old Mr Claus. So I thought I'd show you the following card with the man himself on.

As used real red card, with whisper white and just a hint of the brushed gold card.  The stamp sets are more merry messages for the sentiment and Best of Christmas for the Santa Claus stamp.  I've inked the edges of the Santa Claus image with soft suede to give it a bit of a vintage feel.

I made these cards for Scotty Too Hotty to give to his friends, I hope you like them as much as they did, if you would like any of the items used to make this project please click on the pictures below which will take you directly to that item in my online store.

Star of wonder!

First I must apologize for the picture as I was struggling to get some decent light to take the thing.  Today's offering uses one of the individual stamps that you can now get from stampin up, the one I chose is the Christmas Star, it's quite a large stamp and lends itself beautifully to my favorite size card 6 x 6.

I stamped out the Christmas Star in red and used the flourish from the everything Eleanor stamp set as some greenery.  You can't really see in the picture but I added some pearls of different sizes so that this would look like mistletoe.  I've matted and layered using some of the burnished gold card on to the red of my card base, and of course stamped onto whisper white.  What you also can't see well in the picture is that I cut out each star and scored it along the white lines so that it would stand up a little from the card base.

Hope you like it, if you would like any of the products used to make this card please click the pictures below which will take you directly to that item in my shop.

Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree!

Yes it's all about trees today and gift bags,  This little idea started after I was telling my son Scotty too Hotty about going to pick out the family Christmas tree with my Dad.  Without fail he'd always pick one that was too tall even though we would point this out he'd still insist on getting it and low and behold he'd have to chop a bit off to get it in the house lol.

So enough of that here's the gift bag.
As you can see it's created using the mosaic madness stamp set, very easy to make,  the star by the way is made of clay and has the recipients name on the back so it can double as a tree decoration.

I finished the tree off with a little sliver star punched from the sliver glimmer paper.

Hope you like it

Festive Flurry Treat Box

We are back to Christmas again here and I have a little treat box used making the tag a box bundle.





If you look closely you can see that I've embossed the plastic covering with the northern flurry embossing folder

I also used the festive flurry stamps and dies for this I think they make such a lovely topper especially when they are finished off with one of the frosted finishes .

To the bottom of the box I added some of the Winter frost papers and a greeting from the More Merry messages stamp set.  All Items used are listed below.
