Noel Christmas Card

Hi Everybody,

Here is the second video from the Simply Christmas Collection and this one uses the whole frame of the die set to create the card.

In others I have cut the letters away and used them on my card and it make a real difference if you do this.

For this card I have created a cloudy backdrop with a homemade stencil and some blue ink and it just adds that little bit of atmosphere to the card.

I hope you enjoy the video and please don't forget to Like and Subscribe to my YouTube channel, and if you click the bell icon you will be notified whenever I add a new video.


The links to this collection and some from previous Christmas releases are in the box below.

More tomorrow ...

Simply Christmas

Hi Everybody,

 Christmas In July has now officially launched and so if you wanted to make an early start  on your cards then now is the time to do it. 

 The brand new collection is available on Craft Stash if you wanted to take a look, and there are some really good deals there for you to take advantage of .... 

I also have videos to show you how I used the dies and stencils that you may find useful, but I am sure you will have many more ideas of your own once you start to play.

 Here is one of them and I will add the other next week. I hope you enjoy.


More tomorrow ...

Christmas in July

Hi Everybody,

Today sees the exciting Christmas In July Launch with Craft Stash and this is designed to give you an early start with any of your Christmas makes. 

This card was very easy to make as all I did was cut out the letters and add them to my base. 

I have used other dies to get the flowers and the embossed background

This card took a little longer as I stamped out all the parts that I needed and then either die cut or fussy cut them out.

I used foam pads underneath areas to give them height and make them stand out on the card, and I added Accent Glaze to the lights for extra shine.

There are lots of ideas that you can try with these dies and they all work really well with last years collection too.

So no excuse to be late with cards this season, unless you are like me and cannot plan for Christmas when the sun shines. It wouldn't do for me to live in Australia.

More tomorrow ...
