Christmas Magic Watercoloured Bells Christmas Card.

 Hello!
So, I have been flat out busy the last few days with work, putting up our Christmas Decorations, some last minute shopping today and of course wrapping! But I'm hoping to get back in my craft room before Christmas for a little de-stress ;-) I do hope your Christmas preparations are coming along nicely too?
I have a pretty card to share with you today uses the Christmas Magic stamp set. This set has now sold out in clear mount but is still available in wood mount in my shop.
I decided to stamp the bell from the set and heat embossed them in white onto watercolour paper to make this card....
TIP: Stamp just a couple of the bells at a time, heat emboss then stamp some more until the paper is covered.
 I love this sentiment in a banner from the Stitched with Cheer stamp set which conveniently works perfectly with the Bunch of Banners Framelits.
 I've layered up here with Mint striped and Silver* ribbon across the centre of the card.
*on offer at the moment
 I love how the bells look shiny with the stamp detail.
You may have seen this card in Instagram already and there I shared that I think this is (at least one of) my favourite card the festive season, what do you think???

Using the Popcorn Box for Gift Giving for Christmas (or Birthdays)

Hi there,
Todays project is perfect for those difficult to buy for folks in your life. I mean if they don't want SU! for Christmas unfriend them! he he, I mean this project might work instead!
I have a couple of teens here and they all like to visit the cinema so I purchased a gift voucher but I wanted to make it look a bit more special, so I turned to the brilliant Popcorn Box Die to make this...
I die cut the box and added a gold glimmer paper reindeer to the front after adding a black bakers twine bow-tie.
 I have filled the box with sweets and popped in a cinema gift voucher.
Sweet treats and ticket money all ready to go straight out - just choose a film!
I then popped the whole thing in a cello bag tied with gold bakers twine and added a tag from the tin of tags kit.
Feel free to Pin this idea for when you are stuck for gift ideas!
 I'd love to receive this for christmas, what about you?

A Santa's Sleigh Reindeer Christmas Card.

Hello!
I have a quick and cute card for you today using Santa's Sleigh thinlits teamed with some more of that lovely Warmth and Cheer DSP, take a look...
 I added some gold bakers twine around his neck and a red rhinestone nose (coloured with a sharpie) and on top of a stitched oval die cut (OOS at the moment but pop your email in to receive a notification when they are back in stock)
 You may remember seeing the original version of this card on Instagram when I had a Fine Tip Glue #fail...
And that lovely sentiment is from the Stitched with Cheer stamp set :-)
But, I liked it so much I re-made the base! I hope you like it too? :-)
