Snow Place Step Card

Hello and welcome back....

Isn't it funny how you sometimes forget things that you have done and then come across them whilst tidying, that's how this card came to be I haven't made one in ages so thought I would do a Christmas Step Card....

 

Isn't it fun, its a little like the card in a box, the right side has three steps, so you have layers of things going on.

 

I am not sure about the Merry Christmas, I wanted to show as much background as possible, so fussy cut around it, but I'm not entirely sure I like it! Do you ever do that?

 

Something else I have just realised I was going to do was put a little bird on the candy cane!  Oh well I will add it later....lol. I cut some grass using the Fringe Scissors and then added snow with the White Gel Pen.

 

I love the trees that the Perfect Pines Framelits cuts out, it gives a lovely 3D effect. I punched out lots of sparkly stars using the Confetti Stars Border Punch and the Silver, Red and Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper.

 

I used the White Gel Pen to create snow on the trees and decorated some of the trees with sparkly stars.

 

There's the finished card....well nearly...add one bird and change the Merry Christmas...lol.

Snow Way Card in a Box

Hello and welcome back....

Today I have another card in a box to share with you this time using the Snow Place Stamp Set and matching Snow Friends framelits, along with the Peaceful Pines and matching Perfect Pines Framelits.

 

The card box base has been made exactly the same as yesterday, I made up 3 from a piece of 12" x 12" Real Red card. Then I added a piece of Soft Sky card 3 1/4" x 3 3/4" which I had put through the Big Shot in the Softly Falling Embossing folder.

Then I took some Merry Moments Designer Series Paper, (one 3 1/4" x 1 3/4" and two 1 3/4" x 1 3/4" ) and stuck them to the flaps. I made a banner using the Snow Way sentiment and added some holly which I had coloured using Stampin'Write markers and popped it on the front.

 

Then I stamped and cut out the penguin and snowmen plus accessories and stuck them in the box.

 

Next I stamped and cut out the trees from the Peaceful Pines stamp set and added them to the box. One of the dies cuts little v's in the tree which push up to give a 3D effect, really pretty.

 

And finally I added a little bird on top of the large snowman's candy cane, he's from the Santa's Gifts stamp set and some stars I punched out using the Confetti Stars border Punch.

  

And here's the finished card, so, so cute...

Snow Friends Christmas Tags

Hello and welcome back,

Today I am sharing some Christmas Gift Tags I have made using the Snow Place Stamp Set and the matching Snow Friends Framelits dies. AND a quick reminder that today is the last day to get 20% off selected stamp sets...don't miss out, to see which sets are included in the offer see my post HERE.
So back to my Christmas Tags....

 

Here is a little box I made to hold the tags until I need to use them, really simple to make. I used a piece of Crumb Cake Card 21 cm x 12 cm and scored it at 8cm, 10 1/2cm,18 1/2cm and 21cm along the long side. Then 2cm along the short side and assemble. This box has no lid as the ribbons from the tags stick out the top.

 

Then I made a belly band and decorated it with the same stamps as the tags, and added some ribbon around the top and bottom.

 

I made 9 tags, 7cm x 10cm, as it meant I got 9 out of a sheet of A4 with no waste.

 

The tags are all basically the same, meaning they all have Merry Christmas stamped in Black at the bottom of the tag, they all have a piece of Red Glimmer card across the bottom and they all have snowflakes stamped across the top. The top of the tag has been punched using the Curvy Corner Trio Punch, both for the rounded corners and the little slot for the ribbon to go through.

 

Then I have decorated them using the Snow Place Stamp Set, here I have teamed the small snowman with the dog from the Hey Girl Stamp set and added a silver glimmer star.

 

Here I have used the Penguin and added the scarf and ear muffs...so cute.

 

Here I used the large snowman and added a scarf and hat and coloured in his carrot nose.

 

Here I put two little snowmen together...

 

This is the back of the tag with To and From and decorated with the little snowman.

 

 

They were a lot of fun to make, they would be great to give to someone or just to use yourself, homemade tags are just so special...

Snow Place Rudolf the Red Nosed Penguin!

Hello and welcome back...

Is it a Reindeer or is it a penguin......its both ....its Rudolf the Red Nosed Penguin....lol And isn't he adorable...

 

I have used the Thick Whisper White Card Stock for the base card and for the mat. I put the mat through the Big Shot in the Softly Falling Embossing Folder. Then I cut a circle out of the mat using the 2 1/2" Circle Punch.

 

I stamped Let It Snow in Chocolate Chip ink at the bottom and put some of the 1/8" Real Red Striped Ribbon around and tied it in a bow.

 

I stamped and cut out the little Penguin using the matching dies and stamped the antlers from the Wonderland Stamp Set on to the base card. Then I stuck the penguin on to the card and put the mat on using dimensionals. Lastly I cut a pom pom off of the Real Red Pom Pom Trim and stuck it to his beak.

 

And there we have the finished card... so adorable...

I hope you like today's card, thanks for stopping by...

Woodland Snowman Noel

Hello and welcome back....

I have a real cute card to share with you today, created using the Snow Place Stamp Set and matching dies....Remember Bundle and save.....

I used Thick Whisper White card for my base and layered it with a piece of Island Indigo. Then I took a piece of Whisper white and put it through the Big Shot in the Woodland Embossing folder, but before I did that I inked up the Embossing folder with some Island Indigo ink, so I got that great background...such a fab technique...

 

I stamped all my pieces for the snowmen and then cut them out using the matching Framelits dies, then I assembled each one ready to add to the card.

 

I cut the Noel from the Wonderful Wreath Framelits out of Red Glimmer Paper and stuck it to the card using Tombow glue. I also stamped the little bird from the stamp set Santa's Gifts, I coloured him in and cut him out...so cute.

I added a piece of Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper to the bottom of he card to look like sparkly snow and then I put the Snowmen and the little Bird on with dimensionals.

 

Such a cute card I love the way they are looking at the bird and it makes them so happy...

 

There are lots of different accessories you can use with the Snowmen and the Penguin, this card has him wearing a Santa hat..

 

And remember if you buy the Snow Place and Snow Friends Bundle you save 15% off the regular price if brought separately.....Awesome..

Hope you like today's card, thanks for stopping by...

Snow Place Merry Christmas

Hello and welcome back....

I have another card featuring the cute Penguin from the Snow Place Stamp Set to share with you today.....

 

The base card is Crumb Cake, with a layer of Cherry Cobbler. The Penguin is stamped in Basic Black on Whisper White and cut out with the matching dies along with the scarf and Santa hat. If you buy the Snow Place Stamp Set and matching Snow Friends Framelits Dies together as a bundle you save 15% off the regular price if brought separately.

I used a White Perfect Accents on his hat, I popped him on the card with dimensionals, then layer it on a piece of Merry Moments Designer Series Paper.

 

I popped a tiny gem in the center of each snowflake and stamped Merry Christmas in Basic Black across the bottom of the card.

 

He is such a cute little chap and he looks so Christmassy in his scarf and hat.
