Snowman Christmas Card Tutorial – Stampin’ Up!

I have a bright and fun Snowman Christmas Card to share with you today. I love the bold and colourful colours in the background that just make you smile on the grey days of winter weather.

This snowman looks so happy playing in the snowflakes. I have to say that I love red all year round but especially at Christmas. It makes the whole image just pop from the background.

The stamp set is Snowman Season. It has 3 different snowmen in it, one of which co-ordinates with a punch. I’ve used this one on a previous card which I will link below.

measurements

Coastal Cabana A6 Cardbase – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half
Bermuda Bay 14.35cm x 10cm
Let it Snow Designer Series Paper (DSP) 13.85cm x 9.5cm
Real Red – 7.5cm x 7.5cm

I’ve accented the card with rhinestones and the beautiful real red cotton ribbon. This ribbon is lovely and soft and therefore easy to make into a nice bow.

Other Christmas Projects

I feel sad that I haven’t used this DSP enough. I think I will make a mini album with it as well. This will work double fold as it makes something pretty and will use up all my spare DSP.

I have a supply list and video tutorial below.

Thank you for dropping by and until next time Enjoy Being Creative!!

I love peacocks. This card is very simple as it is using the “Royal Peacock” as the main focal image on top of designer series paper (DSP).

Bermuda Bay DSP from the Brights 6″ X 6″ stack – 10cm x 14.35cm

When I live in London, I was working very close to Holland Park and there are peacocks in Holland Park. They are very tame and in the Spring they love to display to anyone who is watching. I have numerous photos of them displaying. They turn around in a full circle so that everyone can get a good photo. They have a very distinctive squawk which can be heard through the whole park.

I remember one year, there were babies and my workplace had a competition to name the four new babies. It was very exciting to see the new baby peacocks.

I gave the peacock a beautiful rhinestones tail to display just like the peacock in Holland Park.

I have a video and supply list below for you.

Until next time, Enjoy Being Creative!!

Everything Amazing Birthday Card

I have this easy and simple birthday card to share with you today using the Everything Amazing stamp set. This is a great set as you can customise your sentiment around the main word Amazing.

The Everything Amazing stamp set from Stampin' Up! is used for this simple birthday card — The Everything Amazing stamp set from Stampin’ Up! is used for this simple birthday card

I love everything about this card. It is simple and elegant. I love Bermuda Bay which is the colour in the background. The stamp stamps a shaded grey rather than jet black but I prefer the jet black as it gives better contrast and makes the sentiment pop. I coloured it in with the black stampin’ write marker.

I love big bold sentiments such as this one as I feel they are everything a simple card needs to make them stand out.

What type of cards do you like? Do you prefer everything simple and streamlined or do you prefer a more detailed style with embellishments? Let me know below!!

I am really glad that is has cooled down at last. Normally, I cope with the heat fine but when it gets over 30 degrees with the high humidity we experience in the UK that is pushing it. My maternal family is from South Africa. I find the dry heat in Pretoria much easier to cope with and can be in long sleeves still at 25 degrees. Consequently, I haven’t done much crafting this week and my videos may be a few days delayed.

I have a video as usual which is below with the supply list.

Until next time Enjoy Being Creative!!

Tool Box for “Take your Pick Tool”

Took Box I made using the Follow your Art suite from Stampin’ Up! This cute box holds the versatile Take your Pick tool. I love this tool as it is an easy pickup tool, stylus, pokey tool and now you can also get a die brush attachment. What more could you want from a crafting tool? I, therefore, had to make it a pretty box to live in.

Tool Box for the Take your Pick tool from Stampin' Up! — Tool Box for the Take your Pick tool from Stampin’ Up!

I adore this box, it uses one of my favourite colours, Bermuda Bay and the fun Follow your Art designer series paper (DSP). It boasts a magnetic closure so you don’t have to worry about it opening and spilling the contents everywhere.

The box is made separately from the wrap around closure, therefore, making it a very simple and easy make. Previously, I was storing the Take your Pick tool in the original box it came and it such a nuisance to get it out and try and make it fit back in that I never used it. This box is so pretty and just sits on my desk, consequently, I’m using the tool much more instead of the 3 other tools I was using.

Measurements

Follow your Art DSP – 7 3/4 inches x 1 1/4 inches x 1

As always, I have made a video showing you exactly how to make this box. The supply list is below the link to the video.

That is all for now, until next time, Enjoy Being Creative!!
