7 weeks of Christmas parts 5 & 6

Hi Stashers.  I have another two cards to share  with you today.

This first card was totally unplanned.  I grabbed an arm load of stuff and had a play.  Check out this video to see how this card was made.

I love crafting like this, just grabbing a few things and seeing how the project turns out.

I'm not good at simple cards.  I keep wanting to add more stuff to fill in the spaces, but I managed it with this double Z fold card.

I chose Very vanilla - 106550 and Berry burst - 144249 card stock for this card along with the berry burst ink pad - 144083.

Double Z fold cards are super easy to make, they just look complicated.  They are a quick make too once you know what you are doing, so you can make something wow in no time at all.

I think of all of the colour combos that I have used for Christmas cards this year, this is my favorite.

I have one more card to share with you, which I will post tomorrow.  I hope you are all managing to stay warm (it's very cold here in the UK at the moment) and toasty.

Thanks for stopping by.

Not just for Christmas

Have you seen the Autumn/Winter catalogue?  It's not just for Christmas you know.

If you would like to look at the catalogue online click here or you can download a PDF version that you can view off line here.

This catalogue focuses on Halloween/Autumn and Christmas, but you can use the items for so much more.

Snowflakes that aren't just snowflakes 

Foil Snowflakes - 144642

These snowflakes work well alone or layered with a topper, but they can be use for other occasions too.  Take a look at this birthday card that I made.

Bundles of fun

There was one bundle that I just couldn't resist from this catalogue, well maybe more than one, but this is my favourite.

Hearts Come Home Clear-Mount Bundle - 146068

Hearts Come Home Wood-Mount Bundle - 146065

I have made Christmas cards, new home cards and a wedding card using this bundle.  Click here to see one of the Christmas cards.  Keep an eye out for Tuesdays post where I show you some of the other cards that I have mentioned.

Had to have it

I had to buy the washi tape.  I'm a steampunk girl and the colours are perfect.  No matter what your style of crafting, this tape will work.

Year Of Cheer Specialty Washi Tape - 144644

Thank you for visiting my blog today.  Check out the link at the top of the page to see all of the products here and so much more.  I didn't even get started on the Autumn/Halloween stuff that is in the catalogue.

I will be back on Tuesday to show you the cards I was talking about earlier.

Happy crafting
