A cute little thank you

This was my little thank you for my Stamper's 6 club the other month.

I had so much fun making this little treat tag. I used the treat cups and the Chalk Talk Framelits. The designer series paper is from the beautiful Park Lane set. I complimented it with Old Olive card stock and this gorgeous Calypso Coral Chevron Ribbon. It makes a little gift amazing.

For the little card I just added some scallop circles and the sentiment from Itty Bitty Banners.

I used skittles in my treat cups but I'm sure you can be very creative with what you fill them with.

Have a great day. xx

Christmas in a Box

Have you made one of these yet? They look fantastically complicated but they are not. You can find a tutorial on the internet.

I demonstrated this at a Stampin' Up! party and it was loads of fun to see everyone's results. As you can imagine they were all different. What a bunch of talented ladies!

We used Wondrous Wreath and the matching Framelits in reds and greens with some touches of gold.

Why not have a go!

A Pink and Silver Christmas

A happy wonderful Christmas at the beginning of November.

How many cards have you got ready for the festive? I need all the help I can get. So it's great to join in with challenges to get the old Christmas mojo going! Less is More has a challenge this week for a non traditional coloured Christmas card. I've gone with pink and silver.

I used the new Wondrous Wreath from the Autumn Winter Catalogue. It's 3 step stamping and the set of stamps have a convenient tag at the top to help line up the images.

The sentiment and bow are also from the same set. I cut out using the Wondrous Wreath Framelits. The glittery banner was cut with the Banner Framelits.

I finished off with a Basic Rhinestone on the bow.

Well I suppose Christmas is just around the corner. It is certainly getting a bit chillier! So time to get organised.

Happy Halloween

The card I'm showing you today was for our Card Swap Group and the theme was autumn.

As we had been away for 3 weeks to Disney in Florida I had to get my skates on when we returned. This was simples simples but such a lot of fun to do and I made two the same. One of the girls got a wrong steer in the group and I ended up receiving two cards this month! So thought it only fair to give her one from me as well.

I used one of the fabulous hostess sets for my autumnal branches. It's called Bloom With Hope and has lovely sentiments with it. I turned the branch into autumn using my Blendabilities (and a pair of reading glasses!). A mat of gold really helps bring the warmth from the colours. Some Linen Thread for the natural feel and a birdie out of a retired set of clips. I've seen a few robins going about lately so thought he was a good accessory to use. Perfect Pennants gave me the perfect sentiment!

As yesterday was Halloween I thought I'd share a little pic from our hols.

Happy Halloween!
