Cuttlebug Christmas - Holly Branch

This was made exceptionally quick ( love it when that happens).

I added score lines to the front of the card and embossed a piece of card with the Cuttlebug Holly Branch A2 folder and carefully glused the embossed branch and added Glammer Dust I then added some red berries I layered this onto gold card stock and added a tie bow ribbon to the top of the card and vioala I was done.

I'm off on my travels down to Peterborough today ready for tomorrows show on Create & Craft & Ideal World at 5 pm so I would love you to join me or even email in, it would be good to hear some friendly names.

I haven't forgot about those of you that can't watch so I've scheduled some of the card for the New Remember When... to come on my blog for 5pm Monday.

In the Pink with Floral Punch Craft

As I said Yesterday, I fell in love with making the Peony Rose.
This time I used the Stylised Flowers A2 Cuttlebug folder to emboss the base card I punched out a half flower shape at the top of the card at both sides and tied a ribbon around it to finish.

Floral Punch Craft - Peony

I've fell in love with this flower, it was made by using an apple punch to create the petals then some pinching and shaping before putting them together, the leaves are made with the grape leaf punch and scoring the veins.


I embossed the base card using the Oval Nestabilities and then cut some in contrasting colours to mat and layer, using the swiss dots A2 folder by Cuttlebug I embossed the bottom of the card then stamped a sentiment by Papertrey Ink and finished by tying a matching ribbon and adding a bow

I'm giving nothing away I'm going to let you decide what it is, but what I will say is the art work on this just blew me away.

Christmas Snowflakes - Stacking Crystals

I used the Stacking Crystals by McGill to create the snowflakes down the side of the card the red and gold snowflakes is a sticky backed material the sentiment is stamped using a Penny Black stamp ( unfortunately I tend to break into song every time I use it ) I stacked this using Nestibilities, I finished off by tying a ribbon around the card.
