Make a Snowman Christmas Card With Me

Make a Snowman Christmas Card With Me. Snowman Season – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

Are you looking forward to snow this winter? Unfortunately, I’ve never had a white Christmas either here in Lincoln or when I lived in London. I’m divided about whether I want snow this year. I love to look at it but have don’t want to be snowed in on top of everything else. My little car won’t do well through heavy snowdrifts. Two years ago we had a foot of snow and I couldn’t take my car out for a week. We didn’t even get any post for that week.

Both our neighbours have young children, I’m sure they will love making snowman this year if we have enough of the white stuff. This is a lovely stamp set as you can stamp the whole snowman as I’ve done here or the individual parts. There is of course a matching die set.

Feeling Blue! Make a Thank You Card & Smile

Feeling Blue! Make a Thank You Card & Smile – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I’ve always loved the combination of pink and blue. I remember having two My Little Ponies, one was pink and one was blue and I always though they were perfect friends. Plaid Tidings is the paper here. I am using it all the time and why not when it it is so gorgeous. The pink in the paper is Melon Mambo and I’ve picked this up again with the mat around the sentiment.

I hope you are all keeping safe in the current conditions. As always I find that crafting is my saviour as it gives both my mind hands busy and when you are busy you can’t think. Not thinking is a bonus some days. Anyway enough of that and back to crafting.

Pink Zebras – Zany Zebras – Stampin’ Up!

I love these pink zebras. They are such fun, kicking up their heels and enjoying life.

The pink used here is my favourite pink, Melon Mambo. I love it!! It is bold and vibrant. These zebras are just too cute. As I’ve told you before my maternal family are all in South Africa. As a child went home to South Africa many times, I was lucky enough to go the Kruger National Park and see the zebras in their natural habitat. This zebras remind me of those happy times.

I am really enjoying making these monochromatic cards. They are striking and require a minimum of supplies. I made a similar card using the colour called Bermuda Bay. I will link it below.

World of Good Adventure Card – Stampin’ Up!

The World of Good speciality designer series paper is lovely. It has brass foiling which matches are brass foiling sheets perfectly. The colours are muted and perfect for male cards as well.

The supplies used in this card are from a suite of products. The stamp set and matching dies coordinate perfectly with the paper, embossing folder and ribbon. I love blue, it’s my favourite colour. The colour here is Misty Moonlight which I love as it’s not as deep as Night of Navy. There are two globe images in the die and stamp set, one features the Americas and the other Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia. I love that between the two, all the continents are covered.

Stained Glass Effect Card – Stampin’ Up!

Hello again. I’m back with another card to share with you. I’m calling this my stained glass effect card as I feel the back strips between each segment are like the black lead work on a stained glass window.

As you may know both Bermuda Bay and Coastal Cabana are favourite colours of mine. I’ve used them here together and they go rather well don’t you think? This card was inspired by a card by upline Amanda Fowler did with us in team training. I’m very pleased with how it turned out and am going to do a few more using different colour combinations. I will share them with you as well.

I use the Tombow multipurpose liquid glue to stick everything down on this card. Oh Boy!!! Did I get glue everywhere? I had it on my fingers, my craft mat, the cardstock, my silicone mat, etc…. I think you get the picture. Wet glue and me, don’t’ always get on. I have a bad habit of sticking my fingers in the glue!!!

Pineapple Punch – Everything Amazing

I have this bright and cheery birthday card using Pineapple Punch. I’ve not used this colour at all. It retires on 2nd June and I wanted to start to use some of it up before it goes into my stash.

This stamp set doesn’t stamp the image in this jet black way. The image is not coloured in so don’t think you have done something wrong when you stamp it and it doesn’t look as above. I used my black Stampin’ Write marker and journaling pens to colour the image in. It took a little time but was worth it I feel.

I’ve stamped on designer series paper (DSP) instead of my normal whisper white. This is the DSP from the 2018 -2020 in-colours that retire in June. I think the black against the pineapple punch is quite striking.

There is added interest in the background from the brick and mortar embossing folder. I am rediscovering my love of embossing folders and will try to use them more in my crafting. I also love enamel dots and so have gone enamel dot mad on this card. They add an extra something to the card.

Oversized Merry Christmas Tag – Stampin’ Up!

I have this lovely oversized Merry Christmas tag to share with you today. This tag can double as a card and tag as there is lots of space on the back to write your message. It is big and bold and yet has a very vintage feel to it.

The colours in this tag are the Real Red and Garden Green. They have been my number one Christmas colours for a number of years. The background colour is not white but very vanilla which gives a softer more shabby chic feel to the tag.

I have just stamped the tab but you could have heat embossed this with clear embossing powder to give a glossy finish. You could even use silver or gold embossing powder for a more metallic bling effect.

Measurements

Garden Green – 4 1/4″ X 5 3/4″
Toile Tidings Designer Series Paper (DSP) – 4″ X 5 1/2″

Although you can’ see I have stamped the back of the tag with “To & From” from the Memories of Home stamp set. I’ve used both real red cotton ribbon and very vanilla lace trim which adds to the shabby chic feel of the tag.

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!!

Pop of Petals Congratulations Card

I have a beautiful floral card to share with you today. It uses the Pop of Petals stamps set and matching punch. This card does pop and is a lovely bright congratulations card for any flower lover. I love flowers and feel sad as the flowers start to die and Autumn comes. This card can keep them alive.

I love the pinks in this card. They are Melon Mambo, Rococo Rose and Lovely Lipstick. These colours all work so well together. I’ve given this card some bling with rhinestone centres for the flowers.

These little flowers from the Pop of Petals set are a great way to use up all those scraps we have lying around our craft rooms. A card like this one is great for children to make as they can stamp all the flowers and punch them out. They can have great fun arranging and glueing down all the flowers and leaves however takes their fancy.

Envelope Album – Perennial Essence – Stampin’ Up!

Today, I’m sharing this lovely envelope album with you. The construction is very simple, in that it consists of only 10 envelopes. That’s right you only need 10 envelopes and you are ready to make your album.

Envelope Album decorated with the Perennial Essence Designer Series Paper from Stampin' Up! — Envelope Album decorated with the Perennial Essence Designer Series Paper from Stampin’ Up!

I’ve been watching lots of videos on YouTube of mini-albums. They are may ways of making a mini album and I wanted to try an envelope one. Unfortunately, I just couldn’t find a style of construction that I liked so I decided to make it up as I went along.

Measurements

The envelopes used are a standard C6 which will fit a normal A6 cardbase.
Perennial Essence Designer Series Paper (DSP) 6″ X 4″
Blackberry Bliss and Blushing Bride mat pieces 6″ X 4″

The album holds 9 photos. Below is a double-page spread in the album.

Envelope Album - Double page spread. — Envelope Album – Double page spread.

A photo is on the right side and the Perennial Essense DSP on the left. I want to take this moment to mention the Praiseworthy Prose stamp set. This set contains seven definitions eg grateful, cheerful and family which have been stamped in Blackberry Bliss. I’ve placed a picture to correspond with each definition.

This album is so easy to make. I’ve made a video tutorial below along with the supply list.

I’m in love with making mini albums. I am making one currently with the Dino Roar DSP and have just completed one with the Magnolia Lane DSP. I will show you them in the next few weeks.
