I don’t know about you, but quick and easy cards are always a win for me. The ephemera packs and designer series paper (DSP) from Stampin’ Up! make this so easy. The Snowy Wonder dies cut out many of the images in the Snow Scenes DSP. I love it when dies and the paper coordinates. No fussy cutting. Yes!!!

As mentioned in my previous post, I adore Amaryllis. Last time I used the two stamp stamping technique to colour these in. Today I am using the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers. These markers have become my go-to colouring medium. What is yours?

Frosted Forest – How I Made a Wintery-Style Christmas Card – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

This card features a number of techniques including ink blending, use of embossing paste and colouring with layering stencils. I’ve limited the colour palette to green and blue. This keeps the card calm. The Frosted Forest stencils, stamps and die are easy to use and make beautiful cards. Do have a go.

Many times we forget that we can clear heat emboss with any of the 50 colours of Stampin’ Up! ink. You don’t need to have tons of different powders, just one will do the trick. The stamp set is More Wishes, a firm favourite of mine. I’ve used Cherry Cobbler ink above and Misty Moonlight below. Which looks best to you?

Who doesn’t like a Christmas cracker? I’ve been making my own crackers for years. These mini crackers are perfect to use as a nameplate for Sunday lunch. They would look good as Christmas Decor items, possibly wired into some garlands across the mantle piece.

They are die-cut using the Cracker and Treabox dies. Last year I showed a couple of ways to make up these crackers and a box to store them in. You can find the links below.

Every year I make candy cane pouches. This is what I came up with this year. I keep these in the house around December to give to visitors. You could also add a ribbon and hang them on the Christmas Tree.

These are easy to make in bulk as they are just little pockets. I’ve used a punch to add decorative detail to the opening. Do you like candy canes? If so what is your favourite flavour? Let me know in the comments below.

I made two versions of this Christmas Tree Tag. The one above is using only the dies. I cut the tree shape from the “A Walk in the Forest” designer series paper (DSP). I used a white pen to highlight the lights, which helped to bring the whole piece together.

Version 2

The tag below is stamped in Garden Green ink with white heat embossing to create the effect of snow. I kept to the primary colours, Real Red, Daffodil Delight and Azure Afternoon (blue) for my baubles. Don’t they look cute?
