12 WEEKS OF CHRISTMAS – WEEK 1

We are on the countdown. It’s 12 Weeks of Christmas projects coming up.

I’m going to share some quick, fun projects with a video to help inspire you with your Christmas creating. Let’s kick off.

Week 1 with the Nests of Winter paper.

It is such gorgeous paper. You don’t need a lot more. Add some texture with the Dots from the Basics 3D Embossing Folders and some of the gorgeous Cherry Cobbler and Gold Ribbon. It’s very lush.

The Seasons Greetings is from the Greetings of the Seasons Stamps and Dies.

Follow along with the video below. (if it doesn’t show head directly to my blog to view it).

The full tutorial with measurements will be sent out in next weeks Newsletter. Are you a subscriber yet? Check the right hand tab on my blog.

This is the Nests of Winter Paper. You can see it more online -> HERE.

Now you can PIN it to come back to.

Be sure to check back next week for our Week 2.

Happy Crafting,

FRONT FLAP CARD WITH A SURPRISE + VIDEO!

Today’s card is a cool Fun Fold. It is a Front Flap Card. It has an added flap that you could add a surprise inside.

This card was shared to me by a Demonstrator friend Linny. I loved the card and wanted to share it with you.

Here is the card.

Lift up the Flap.

Open the card.

Under the flap would be a great to add a Numbered birthday perhaps or even add a pocked for a Gift Card.

I have a video for you to follow along.

I used the Season of Green and Gold Specialty Paper. Also the Golden Greenery Stamp Set and the Greetings of the Season Stamp Set. It makes a special Christmas card to send. This could be used for so many different occasions though.

I share another one version at the end of the video so be sure to check out that one.

Follow along and I hope you get to make one.

Happy Crafting,

Jenny

SUNNY SURFING SANTA FOR CHRISTMAS!

Playing a little more with the Surfing Santa Stamp set.

For us in the Southern Hemisphere this really appeals to us with our Sunny, warm Christmas.

Sunny and Bright for Christmas with the Surfing Santa Stamp Set from Stampin' Up!

A little closer view. I stamped the gifts on the card in red for a subtle background.

The Santa was fun to colour and coloured with the Stampin’ Blends. The paper strip was from Reindeer Days and added a little sparkle with the Festive Glimmer Paper.

I shared another card with the Surfing Santa just recently. You can head back one or 2 posts on my blog to see that one if you missed it.

Here is the Surfing Santa Stamp Set.

Have a great day,

Jenny

GIFTS TOSSED UP WITH THE STAMPIN’ UP! SURFING SANTA STAMP SET.

I have been playing a bit with the Surfing Santa set this week. This one is a great one for our warm, sunny Christmas.

I had this idea with this one to have the gifts look like they were tossed up on the waves. This is the card. I have to say though it wasn’t quite what was in my head. Something is not quite right. But maybe it’s an idea for when you use this set.

The paper is from the Reindeer Days pack which works ok with it.

This is the Surfing Santa Stamp Set.

Very cool isn’t it. Not just for Christmas though. I think the wave and the sun would be great with the Beach Day stamp set. I must try that.

You can see it more in my store -> HERE.

Happy Crafting,
