Mum


The card I made for my mum’s birthday back in October 

Everything was from existing stash, because I haven’t been crafting very much this year I haven’t really bought anything new at all. 

The butterfly was new but not bought for card making so that doesn’t count, does it? 



 

Halloween


 

Halloween gift bags.

I used a set of handbag dies from Craft Stash and decorated using my Cricut

Coffee & cream



 My favourite embossing folder, it’s an old one by Crafter’s Companion and I’ve added some Nuvo drops.

Flower dies are by Creative Expressions 

With Love..



Cards I’ve made in bulk this Christmas.

Embossing folder is Tim Holtz for Sizzix. Scalloped square dies by Tonic.

Holly, poinsettia, and sentiment dies are Creative Expressions 


 

Mum


 

I haven’t been crafting so much this year hence no blogging.

Anyway, this is the card I’ve made for my mum.

Embossing folder is by Spellbinders, poinsettia die is Creative Expressions.

I’ve used Cricut for “Mum” and the card blank is from a pack I’ve had for years, it’s 8 x 8”

Christmas



Stamps and dies by Chloe



Small gift pouch to hold two mini Ritter chocolates, I've used a snowflake tag punch by Stampin' Up!



 

Weaving


Card inspired by Lynn at Craft Mania

I've used Creative Expressions paper weaving die, poinsettia die also CE, and sentiment was a magazine freebie.



 

Bubbles


Stamps by Jane Gill for Woodware



 

Bubble Tree


Stamps by Woodware



 

Gift bags



Handbag dies from Simply Made at Craft Stash



Simple pouches using SU paper and Spellbinder labels dies



 

For Jackie




Colours are shocking in this pic, in real life they are lilac and purples.

I've used flower dies by Creative Expressions and papers by Crafter's Companion and The Paper Boutique.



 

Christmas


I made a few different versions of these, changing the colours or the sentiments.

The Christmas tree dies are by Creative Expressions, embossing folder is an old one I can't remember the brand.



 

Joy


Mini bottles of wine inside these.

Earlier in the year I watched a video on Crafter's Companion YouTube, the tutorial showed how to make a concertina-vase card. I made a much more simplified version which can hold a full-sized wine bottle and then made these smaller ones.

Mum


Identical card layout to the lilac Christmas one shown recently. I liked the design so just changed the colour scheme and sentiment.

Peace


Club project, we made a card plus box. Above pic is the box complete with acetate window to give a glimpse of the contents.



Card is 7 x 7 inches. Peace die is Crafter's Companion and clock face die is by Tim Holtz for Sizzix. Both pieces were die-cut three times and layered to give a bit more oomph.



Poinsettia die and matching embossing folder also by Tim Holtz, the edges are very lightly inked with Colour Cloud.



 

Hydrangea


Woodward stamp and an easy fancy fold.

Time


Stepper card blank is from Crafter's Companion

Dies and stamps are by Paper Discovery, we added acetate and sequins to make a shaker card.



 

Acetate stepper card


I'm not sure what this style of card is called so I've gone with acetate stepper. I copied the idea from a birthday card that one of my ladies sent to another one of my ladies!



Papers are old ones from Lili Of The Valley, mannequin die is Sizzix.
