Rosettes




I spotted some boxes of glittery rosettes in Matalan the other day. They are with the wrapping paper and gift bags, and are on 3 for 2.
Each box has a mix of three colours, in two sizes, twelve to a box (so 36 for £4)


They are meant to be 'gift toppers' but of course I bought them for crafting.




I would have liked the large rosette to be at the bottom left on this card and the smaller ones in its place but with 'Christmas' being the longer word it wouldn't fit.
Sentiment die is Memory Box (or Poppystamps, I always get them mixed up)





Slightly different version; the sentiment stamp is by Chloe's Creative Cards and I've infilled it with glitter.
Embossing folder is Papermania.

Box




A quick one in-between hospital appointments!
I find boxes are much speedier to make than cards.





20 cm x 20 cm card-stock and scored at 2cm all round.
For the lid I used the same measurements but didn't butt all the way to the left-side of my scoreboard, pulling away just a mm or two means the lid fits perfectly.

Deck the Halls die is by Tonic, stitched holly leaves by Poppystamps. I added some Glossy Accents to the berries.
The box fits one of these bars of chocolate, 250g, available in Lidl.

Thank You




I made this card using SU paper for the scallop strips and a Memory Box/ Poppy Stamps sentiment die.
Ombre paper is Webster's Pages, sequins are Doodlebug.





I then adapted it slightly for this week's card club project, swapping the sequins for buttons and the ombre paper for plain layers.

We had fun changing the colour of the SU paper using inks, and most of the ladies made a second card, using more of the paper with coral or yellow themes.

Thank You



"Thank You" for sticking with me while my blog has been inactive!

I'm still not back up to speed, walking or crafting wise, but slowly getting there.

This was a card we made at craft club yesterday. We used a Poppystamps die for the sentiment, cutting four times and layering up for a 3-d effect.
I have no idea what the difference is between Poppystamps and Memory Box dies as they seem to be the same company? Makes it a little confusing when buying online in any case.

The flower and leaf dies are by My Favourite Things/ Die-namics.
