Day 4 of Hello December meets Blogmas

Welcome

Can you believe it is the fourth day of  'Hello December meets Blogmas' already?

Have you been busy festive crafting? I love crafting at this time of year as it just makes me feel all jolly and happy as I watch yet another Christmas movie.

For today, I am showing you another card from the Memories and More Beary Christmas range.

As a big lover of fussy cutting, I had great fun cutting up the parcels and greeting and rearranging them on this card. 

Again, I chose to use the Joyful Specialty Designer Series Paper for the Day 4 and the Christmas Classics stamp set and dies which I finished off with the Holly Gems and Sequins.  

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

Day 3 of Hello December meets Blogmas

Welcome to my third day 'Hello December meets Blogmas' and thank you for stopping by to see what I have created today.

I have created another card using more of the Memories and More Beary Christmas products.  For this card I decided to cut the card to give it more of a 3D effect and added some Wink of Stella so that the ice sparkled.

The Day 3 card was created using Joyful Specialty Designer Series Paper and the Holly Gems and Sequins.  This card was really quick as the pretty paper did all the work for me.

Day 2 of Hello December meets Blogmas

Ho, Ho, Ho Happy Birthday to me!  

Today I am in my third year of my fifties (52 lol) and for my birthday I will be visiting Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park, London.  

I will be having fun with my eldest daughter as I snap loads of photo's for my Hello December album. This was where I went with my daughters and granddaughters for my 50th and I always wanted to visit it again for the adult version with more ice skating, the big wheel and some Gluhwein to warm me up.

Here is today's project, I created a card using the Memories & More Beary Christmas cards.  As you will see there was some fussy cutting from the designer series paper and the Memories & More cards.

For today's number card I wanted to make it like a birthday present, using products from Stampin' Up! Joy of Christmas suite.

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

Pinch Punch, it's the start of my Blogmas month!

Hello, welcome and happy Pinch Punch day! 

Not only is it the first of December, it's also the start of my first every Blogmas, so I am kicking off with the front page that is inside my Hello December album.

For this introduction page (17.4cm x 21cm) I used the Christmas Classics stamps and dies to create the calendar tab holder, I stretched the cut-out die by only die-cutting half of the die then moving it along, rotating it to cut the other half.  

This gave me the perfect size for the calendar tab and I used the Blending Brush with Old Olive ink pad to add some tone to the card. I wanted to show the whole of December in the front so I created a calendar tab using Days to Remember stamp set by Stampin' Up!

In addition to the front cover you will see the first of the day numbers which will go into my album as I eventually document the whole month.  There will be a different number design each day and I have had so much fun creating these for the album.

For this number card, I used Pecan Pie cardstock (3" x 4") and the Exposed Brick 3D embossing folder, added some colour using a Blending Brush and Pecan Pie ink pad.  I wanted to also use some Black & White ribbon and create a bow for added decoration.  

The numbers have been die-cut using the Alphabet a la Mode dies and Joyful Specialty Designer Series Paper.

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:

Cherry Cobbler

Real Red

Garden Green

Old Olive

Shaded Spruce

Early Espresso

Pecan Pie

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:

I am hoping you have enjoyed looking at my project for this Suite Showcase and if you would like more information about classes, workshops and Stampin’ Up! products, please do not hesitate to contact me.  Why not follow my blog to be kept up-to-date with my posts?
