Hexagon Christmas

Hello Stampers,

This is a very simple card to create and takes no time at all. You could churn out all your Christmas Cards in one day with this creation. All you need is the Hexagon Punch and some pretty Designer Series Paper. I have used the Winter Frost DSP for this card and some silver glimmer card. I also used the Merry from the Expressions framelits and added a clear button with a twine bow for extra interest.

Chocolate Slider Box

Hello Stampers,

Well first of all, I need to wish my hubby a wonderful birthday today, Mwah!

Now I can share with you something I created for him, seeing as our young girls wanted to give him something (hubby bought his own present this year through his work!).

Because he is a Collingwood supporter (and I say that quietly as I am NOT), we decided to make his slider box in black and white.

So here it is!

Chocolate Slider Box

and here is another… how could I stop at just one?!!!!

Chocolate Slider Box

 

if any one knows me, I LOVE chocolate and I reckon these are a perfect gift for any chocolate lover.

Next I will be making some in pretty pinks with butterflies!!!!

These would also be great for the little furry friends chocolate bars for kids parties.

There is a class to learn how to make these on Thursday 14 November at 10am. Email Me to book and reserve your seat!

Have a great day and happy stamping,

Kate

Christmas Decorations

Hello Stampers,

This is an easy project to get started on those decorations for the Christmas Tree!

I stamped one of the images from the Mixed Bunch Stamp Set 6 times onto Whisper White cardstock, then punched them out with the coordinating Blossom punch. Fold each blossom in half and glue one to the other, until you have 3 glued together. Then glue the other 3 together so you have 2 halves of your decoration. Cut a piece of silver ribbon to about 12″ and fold in half and glue to the inside. Then join the two halves together and you have finished your decoration! So easy, simple and you could make loads of these in a day for teacher’s gifts or just to hang on your Christmas Tree.

Calendar Card, Owl Punch

Easel Calendar & Post-it Card

Hello Stampers,

This is a project I have made for some upcoming craft markets and Christmas gifts. It is easy but also very useful! It is perfect as a gift for someone’s office or desktop. It has a pad of post-it notes on the bottom and the top part of the card sits behind the post-it notes and has a calendar which can be displayed all year round.

Mini Calendar Card

To create this you start with one piece of card stock measuring 4 1/4″ x 11″; score it at 5½” and 2¾”.

Mini Calendar Card

Fold as shown above and add adhesive to the easel section.  Cut one more layer at 4¼” x 5½”.  Adhere the bottom of this piece to the area with glue on it so that it folds flat. This will make them easier to put in the post!

Mini Calendar Card

I hope you like this cute but simple project.

  • Punch: Owl Builder
  • Ink – Crumb Cake, Soft Suede
  • Card stock –Bermuda Bay, Soft Suede, Very Vanilla
