Merry Christmas to All Card Tutorial

Thank you for dropping by. I have a very simple and easy Merry Christmas Card to share with you today. This card is great to make in bulk as there are very few steps to achieve a great wow factor.

I have used again the Wrapped in Plaid Designer Series Paper. (DSP) I love this paper. It’s elegant, bright and has foiled elements. What is not to love? Shaded Spruce and Cherry Cobbler are great Christmas colours. They are complementary colours on the colour wheel and really make each other pop.

The stamp set is Merry Christmas to All and is a set from the main annual catalogue. It is a great sentiment set for Christmas. I love set with bold and large sentiments as they make for quick and easy cards.

Silver Embossed So Many Stars Christmas Card

I have this one layer card to share with you today. The stamp set I used is So Many Stars and it screams silver heat embossed to me. I love cards like this that go back to the basics of paper, ink and stamps.

Heat embossing is always magic to me. I love the thrill of the dull silver powder turning to a beautiful silver metallic colour. The stamp set So Many Stars has a matching die set which you can purchase as a bundle for a 10% discount.

I’ve always loved the twinkling stars in the sky. I was born in central London and therefore it was a rare occurrence to see stars in the sky due to all the light pollution. Every year we visited my Granny in South Africa and I remember the wonder of seeing the stars in the night sky. They twinkled and I remember being in awe of how huge the universe was. Even still I love seeing the stars twinkling in the sky. They ground me in a busy world.

Magnetic Flap Christmas Card Tutorial

I have this cute Christmas Card to share with you today. The stamp set I’ve used is Christmas Crowd. The sentiment says “Christmas Greetings from the Gang” on the flap. You lift the magnetic flap and find the gang waving hello to you.

I love this stamp set and wanted to use it more than once this year but was unsure how. The gang are coloured in using the Stampin’ Blends alcohol markers the same as before. I’ve done the colouring on fast forward but you can slow the video done to see the details. The blends do make colouring easy as the alcohol markers don’t leave lines and make blending super simple.

I adore the idea of this magnetic flap that shows the gang all waving Merry Christmas to you. It is so cute!!

Pink Gift Bag – Shimmery Silver – Stampin’ Up!

Hello and thank you for visiting. I have this lovely pink gift bag to share with you today that features the Feels Like Frost silver foiled designer series paper. This is a very simple bag but it looks like a million dollars, or I think so!!

I think the melon mambo pink and silver foil DSP are a match made in heaven. This would be a perfect gift bag for a girly party, a hen night or even a silver wedding anniversary.

It is a grey and yucky day here in Lincoln. Everything outside is dark and grey. I love Melon Mambo as even on a horrid day weather-wise it can bring a spark of bold colour to my day. Which is your favourite Stampin’ Up! colour? Let me know in the comments section below.

Embossed Tree – Memories of Home – Stampin’ Up!

Hello again, thank you for dropping by. I have this heat embossed tree card to share with you today. This whole card is one stamp from the Memories of Home stamp set from Stampin’ Up!

I’ve embossed this tree in silver embossing powder for a simple metallic look. I found the tree looked a little dull in just silver so I decided to colour in the baubles. I’ve used our standard Stampin’ Write markers to colour in. Colouring is super easy as the embossing helps you stay within the lines.

The whole image is matted on a piece of Wrapped in Plaid DSP. This paper has foiling one side and gorgeous patterns on the other side. As the foiling is in gold I decided to use the non-foiled side. The finishing touches are these wonderful Holiday Rhinestones that look like twinkling fairy lights around the tree.

Measurements

Shaded Spruce A6 Cardbase – (This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half)
Whisper White – 12cm x 9cm
Wrapped in Plaid DSP – 14.35cm x 10cm

I love Christmas Trees. We normally have 3 in the house, one in the lounge, one in the hall and a third one in the upstairs hall. I’ve always enjoyed decorating them and enjoy the process as much as the finished product.

Mr Fox – Nature’s Beauty – Stampin’ Up!

I have this gorgeous wintery scene card featuring Mr Fox to share with you today. The stamp set is Nature’s Beauty and can be easily missed as it’s on the last page of the Autumn / Winter catalogue. This stamp set is part of Stampin’ Up!’s Making a Difference project. £2.50 from the sale of each set goes towards mental health organisations.

I love this wintery scene. It does seem to sum up our dream of winter in the UK. In reality, many of us don’t’ get much snow and when we do it turn to mush very quickly. We can dream though!!!

This card is very simple to make. All the elements bar Mr Fox are stamped in early espresso. I have sponged the sky with Balmy Blue which is the same blue as the cardbase. Mr Fox is a red fox and therefore stamped in Cajun Craze.

measurements

All the elements are stamped in one layer. Mr Fox is fussy cut but he is very easy to cut out. I love this type of Christmas card with a winter scene. What are your favourite types of Christmas Card? Let me know in the comments section.

Large Gift Box Tutorial – Brightly Gleaming

I have this gorgeous large gift box to share with you today. This uses the Brightly Gleaming Speciality Designer Series Paper (DSP). This is a very good size box, perfect to house a present for a special someone.

The Brightly Gleaming DSP is gorgeous. One side of each sheet has copper foiling. I have used two different designs here to give you options when making this box. This box measures 6″ X 4″ X 2″. This paper is part of the Brightly Gleaming suite of products that includes the Christmas Gleaming stamp set and two ornament punches.

Large Gift Box Tutorial - Brightly Gleaming - Ornament paper — Large Gift Box Tutorial – Brightly Gleaming – Ornament paper

The bauble and sentiment have been heat embossed with copper embossing powder to match the paper and copper foil sheet. I love the way all the colours co-ordinate in the paper, inks and ribbon.

measurements

Pretty Peacock – 10″ X 8″ Scored at 2″ on all sides
Brightly Gleaming DSP 10 1/16″ X 8 1/16″ Scored at 2″ on all sides
Very Vanilla strip 2″ wide

The strip of Very Vanilla is the full length of an A4 sheet but was still too short as this is a large gift box. I had to add in an extra little piece that is hidden on the bottom of the box.

Removable Magnet Snowman – Christmas Card

I have a fun card to share with you today. This is a Christmas card with a twist. The snowman is a removable magnet. So you can lift him off the card and stick him on the front of your fridge. It is a card and gift all in one.

I think this is such a fun and novel idea for a card. I stamped and cut out the snowman using the Snowman Builder punch. He is assembled on real red cardstock. I then fussy cut him out, stuck magnets on his back and stuck him on come coastal cabana. This was then fussy cut out again. This makes for a sturdy little snowman that not only decorates the front of the card but anything magnetic too!!

Measurements

Red Red Cardstock – 14.35cm x 10cm
Let it Snow Designer Series Paper (DSP) 13.85cm x 95cm

I want to take a moment to mention the Let it Snow DSP. This is a beautiful paper collection. One side of each paper has images that have glitter on them. It is a sparkling, glittering and snowy collection indeed!!

Tidings All Around Christmas Wreath Card

I have another Christmas Card to share with you today. This card uses the Tidings All Around stamp set. This set has a matching die set which also coordinates with another set in the Autumn/Winter catalogue, Seasonal Wreaths.

I’ve used Shaded Spruce as the green in this card. I sponged the wreath with Shaded Spruce to give the wreath some definition. The red rhinestones give it a nice bit of bling.

I love background stamps. I don’t think we always use them enough in cardmaking. The one used here is called Birch and gives the effect of an old wooden door.

Measurements

I love wreaths at Christmas time. I have a few around the house. There are two fabric ones that I made out of scraps of fabric. I cut each piece of fabric into a square and then fold and stitch them to create a leaf. Each wreath has about 100 of these fabric leaves.

Wrapped in Plaid Punched Trees Card

I have another Christmas card to share with you today. This one is super easy and quick to make, using the Wrapped in Plaid DSP. I am glad that Stampin’ Up! is still investing in new punches even though the trend for dies has taken off. Punches make crafting quick and allow crafting away from home.

I love this new tree punch. It has a matching stamp set and they are sold as a bundle for a saving of 10%. The paper I’ve used is the Wrapped in Plaid designer series paper (DSP). This DSP is one of the 6″ X 6″ pads. It has foiled elements on one side and simple patterns on the other. It is a great stack of paper to make cards well as mini albums.

As the Wrapped in Plaid DSP has gold foil elements I decided to heat emboss the sentiment in gold to match. My favourite element, however, is the holiday rhinestones. They twinkle across the card like fairy lights. I am definitely going to buy another pack of them.
