Happy 'Hello December meets Blogmas' Eve

Hello and welcome,

I am so excited as tomorrow sees the start of my first ever Hello December and Blogmas.  

Every day through the month of December I will be posting my daily creations and they will go live at 7am every morning. I will be blogging and sharing on Facebook, Instagram and Pinterest every day.  The projects will be varied and range from cardmaking to scrapbooking to 3D projects - plenty of variety for everyone.

For this post I have made the following Scrapbook album so I can document December 2023 on a daily basis, I will be using the number cards that I create for the Blogmas posts and when the album is complete (beginning of January 2024) I will be more than happy to share it with you.

Well as tomorrow is the 1st of December (my birthday eve -  yes there is such a thing lol) why not follow my blog or on FACEBOOK, INSTAGRAM & PINTEREST to be kept up-to-date with my 'Hello December meets Blogmas' posts.

Look forward to welcoming the festive season with you.

Suite Showcase #22 - Beary Christmas


 
Welcome to my blog,

Thank you for taking the time to stop by and read the final post of November 2023, I cannot believe that we are almost at the end of the year already.

For this Suite Showcase we will be using Beary Christmas suite by Stampin' Up!  I must admit that I had zero idea what to do with this suite as we don't get snow at Christmas so I don't tend to make Christmas cards with snow on.  However, a change is a good as a rest and boy did I get carried away with this suite.  Here are the two greetings cards and four gift tags that I made for this blog post.  

The first card I made was a DL size card (A4 card cut to 19.98cm x 21cm and scored on the shorter side at 9.9cm).  
As always with any project there was plenty of fussy cutting from the DSP and the Memories & More cards.  These cards were the final cards I made and they were great for using the leftovers.

The second card (10cm x 10cm square) used the leftover piece of A4 card (9.9cm x 20cm and was scored at 10cm on the long side).  I love amking this size card as you can get three from one sheet of A4 card
For these tags I used a punch to make the scalloped top (half inserted the card from the back) and then used pieces from the Beary Christmas DSP and Memories and More cards.
I hope you have enjoyed looking at these projects, the rest of the ones I created using this suite (more cards and scrapbooking pages) will be posted during the month of December when I do my first Blogmas (starts on 1st of December and a new craft project will be posted everyday) so I hope you will come back to have a look.

Please see below the supply list of the products used in these projects:

Suite Showcase #21 - Joy of Christmas

Hello and welcome

Thank you  for stopping by to look at what I have created using the Joy of Christmas suite by Stampin' Up!  I fell in love with this suite as soon as I saw it on the back cover of the current Mini Catalogue, I do love the traditional reds, greens and gold when it comes to Christmas crafting:

As I had previously made a Halloween banner I thought it is only fair that I make a Christmas version too.  I had great fun making the stamped & heat embossed images using the Christmas Classics stamp set and dies and of course no banner would be complete with Alphabet a la Mode dies.

 

  and as you will see they were used to complete the Joy of Christmas banner...

I love how simple it is to make this, and once I had done the banner tabs I just used a mixture of stamped and gold heat embossed pieces and added them to each tab.

Please see below the supply list of the products used in these projects:

Happy Crafting!
