MERRY CHRISTMAS BANNER!

How was your Christmas?  I hope you had a lovely day.  They weather changed considerably here yesterday with rain and much cooler temperatures.  This changed our plans a bit but it all worked out.  Nothing like coziness with all the family on Christmas Day!!!

I know Christmas has now gone but I still want to show you this project.  I have been meaning to make one of these Christmas Banners for months.  I have looked around the internet but just wasn’t sure what to do.  On the weekend just gone I thought I should just ‘DO IT!!’  So I did!

Here is my Christmas Banner.

It is hard to see it all here so I will show you some close-up shots.

Enjoy the rest of your Christmas celebrations and I look forward to you stopping by again soon.

FOLDED PAPER CHRISTMAS ORNAMENT

Did you enjoy the Christmas boxes I shared with you last week?  I hope it might have inspired you.  If you missed them just head back to the previous posts.  I showed a different box each day for a week.  Today I want to show you a Christmas Ornament I recently made.

P1070261

I quite like all the curls on this.  I found the idea originally on Pinterest.  The directions for making this can be found here.  (Just a note: It is in Chinese but it has photos and is fairly easy to work out).

This was made with the “Be of Good Cheer” DSP. I added some Cherry Cobbler Seam Binding and Lace to finish it off.  I have been debating whether it needs a Christmas sentiment but I didn’t want to hide the curls.  Maybe a little one down the bottom???

I hope your plans for Christmas are coming together well.  Most of the presents here are wrapped.  A couple of things I ordered On-line still haven’t arrived, so I think I will be making some ‘IOU’ tags.

Thanks for stopping by,

Jenny

BOX WEEK – BOX #6

Here we are in Box Week at Box #6.  These boxes are getting bigger now!

P1070306

I found the template for this box on Becky’s 12 Days of Christmas 2009 edition.  You can find the details here.  This was the Bow Box in the collection.  If you scroll down the blog and look in the Right Hand column you can see the 2009 projects there.  You can purchase the Tutorial there too.

My box was created in Cherry Cobbler.  The frame on the front was stamped using “Memorable Moments” and then cut with the Labels Framelits.  The greeting is from “More Merry Messages”.  A little Candy Cane stamped from “Scentsational Season” and cut with the Holiday Framelits finishes the front.

Here is the top view.

P1070309-1

The top was cut in Gumball Green and DSP strips (from “Be of Good Cheer DSP pack”) were adhered to the edges and top.  I cut 2 snowflakes with the Snow Flurry Die in Silver Glimmer Paper and Very Vanilla.  These were layered together.  The Cherry Cobbler circle in the centre was punched out using one of the small circles on the Owl Punch.  An adhesive pearl finished off the centre.  I cut a piece of the Cherry Cobbler Tulle and gathered that together and wrapped some thread around the centre to hold it all in place.  Once all the layers were adhered together they were fixed in place on top of the box with Dimensionals.  This box stands at 10.5cm or about 4 1/4″ tall.

Thanks for looking today.  We have our last box for our Box Week tomorrow so be sure to stop by.

“MUNCHED GINGERBREAD”

Just a quick post today.  School holidays start today and we are heading off to …………..HAWAII!!! I can’t believe today is here.  We have been planning this trip for a year.  We have a few final things to pack and last minute rush around getting hair cuts.  Leaving things to the last minute here!!! 🙂  Anyway, I wanted to show you a quick card before we leave.

I had a lot of fun making this card.  I CASED this off our Demonstrator Facebook group.  Now I can’t remember who the original creator is – Sorry.  Let me know if you recognise it.

Isn’t it cute??  I have used the set ‘Scensational Season’.  This was made in Gumball Green and Cherry Cobbler and the ‘Be of Good Cheer’ DSP.  I have “munched” the gingerbread with the scallop circle punch.

Why not make your own “munched Gingerbread” card??

I hope to stop by occasionally and give you a few travel reports.  I don’t want to bore you too much though. 🙂  I have some cards that I have planned to show you too so don’t forget to visit.

Until then, Mahalo (Thank You and Good Bye)  – see I am learning the lingo already!!
