Do you like making fun/ fancy fold cards? I do. This is a simple easel card featuring the Snow Scenes designer series paper (DSP). I love this paper as there are many images that can be fussy cut to make lots of die cuts. There is a matching stamp and die bundle. The dies match some of the images in the DSP. I love it when that happens. Less fussy cutting for me!!

I will admit that the Decorative Trees stamp and die bundle wasn’t at the top of my shopping list, and at first, I didn’t buy it. I kept looking at the dies and thinking of all the projects I could make with them. Of course, I gave in, and now I love the bundle.

This card is one we made in card club. There are many different decorative trees to choose and of course, you can vary the colours accordingly. I stuck with traditional green and red.

I do love a pretty gift box or bag. I have tons but I am still making them. This a very simple box featuring the Snowy Scenes designer series paper (DSP). I’ve used the Take A Bow die to make the embellishment for the lid. You can find the full tutorial to make this bow in the previous blog post and on my YouTube channel.

If you are like me, when I saw a die that made bows I had to have it. As a person who can’t make a bow to save my life, I knew a die that would do it for me was for me. I received the die set. I opened it and stared at and stared at it some more. How was I meant to make a bow from this? I went to YouTube and watched a few tutorials and this is my way to use it.

6″X 6″ paper works perfectly for this die. I used the matching Take a Bow designer series paper (DSP). you need two sheets to make each bow. You need two of everything except the smallest strip. Watch the video below to see the full tutorial.

How to Make a Cute Pen Pouch / Stocking Filler

How to Make a Cute Pen Pouch / Stocking Filler – Greetings of the Season – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – UK

I think this is a great idea for a stocking filler. This bag/pouch is easy to make and fits at least two pens. I’ve used some pretty Christmas-themed ones I found online. You can use paper or cardstock to make these but I prefer paper. One thing I should mention is to be careful when scoring the paper. Use the fatter end of the scoring stylus or a lighter hand on the trimmer. You don’t want to cut through your paper.

Measurements

  • Snowy Scenes designer series paper (DSP) – 8″ X 4 1/2″ scored on the short side at 2″ & 4″ and 1″ & 3″ up to the score line. On the long side score at 1″ only.

I was looking through my pretty paper and noticed I hadn’t used much of the Winter Meadow designer series paper (DSP). It is lovely paper and deserves to be used. This is the card I came up with. It is a tonal Christmas card and I love it. Do you?

I love to use my scraps. I hate having tons of leftovers. Are you the same? This is a great way to use scraps. I took strips of designer series paper and stuck them to a piece of Basic White cardstock in an order that was pleasing to my eye. A tip is to ensure they are well stuck done, I used an adhesive sheet but you could also use a wet glue. This became my “new” patterned paper to die cut as I pleased.

I love the bright and vibrant colours of this card. I’ve used Poppy Parade, Pumpkin Pie and Crushed Curry to create this gorgeous blended background. They work well together, do you agree? The emboss resist technique makes this focal image pop.

Scene cards are one of my favourite types of cards to create. This mother deer and her baby are sweet and perfect for a focal image for any Christmas card. I made the snowbank the old-fashioned way with my scissors. The purpose was to show you don’t always need dies to cut everything.

The mother and baby deer are coloured using the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers. I only used two colours, Crumb Cake and Petal Pink. Crumb Cake is my favourite shade of brown for animals.

I love the simplicity of this Christmas Card. The main star of the card is the Falling Snow background stamp. I’ve white heat embossed it on Azure Afternoon cardstock and then ink blended in the same colour over the top. The white heat-embossed areas resist the ink and stay bright white. Such a gorgeous effect.
