Christmas Countdown Week 12
In this, our final Christmas Countdown project, I show you how to make a made-to-measure gift box – how to calculate the size of paper you need and where the scorelines need to go!
Christmas Countdown week 11
This week, in the penultimate Christmas Countdown, I show you how to make a small gift box. I love giving gifts in hand made boxes and it’s easy to change the sizes to fit the gifts – I’ll do another blog on that one day!
Pop up present card
I love making pop up cards and this one is not too complicated once you take it step by step and especially if you watch the video!
Cracker card
I love fancy fold cards and this one is good fun to make. I’ve given you all the measurements and instructions and there’s a video that shows it all too.
Christmas Countdown Week 10
Join me this week to make 12 tags using the gorgeous Love Santa Kit. The Kits Collection from Stampin’ Up! has a range of beautiful all inclusive kits, which make great presents, too.
Christmas Countdown Week 9
More quick and easy cards using beautiful Tidings of Christmas designer series paper and just a little stamping with the Perfectly Plaid stamp set, also using the matching punch
Christmas Countdown Week 8
For our Christmas Countdown week 8 I’m making some quick and easy gift tags using the wonderful new Tailored Tags dies
Christmas Countdown Week 7
Week 7 already! This week a beautiful card two ways using the gorgeous Poinsettia Petals stamp set and matching dies. Quick, easy and beautiful.
Poinsettia Petals Craftalong
I got carried away making cards with the gorgeous Poinsettia Petals stamp set and matching dies! We also made a fun fold flap card.
Christmas Countdown Week 6
A traditional card this week using the lovely Great Tidings stamps and dies bundle.
