Christmas is love

Here's a really quick card made using the very minimum of supplies.
4 squares of DSP punched using the 1.3/8" square (Do you know that you can get 64 of these squares out of one 12x12 sheet of DSP. These are stuck onto a square of Very Vanilla which is matted onto a piece of Cheery Cobbler cardstock. The wreath from Welcome Christmas is stamped in Old Olive and the snowflake centre from Season of Joy is stamped in Cherry Cobbler in the centre of the wreath. The sentiment is from Contempo Christmas and punched using the Modern Label Punch.
Obligatory bling added to snowflake and voila - a card in minutes!!
Love it!! (and so do my Crafting Ladies)

Telescopic card

Hi everyone - I happened upon a telescopic card whilst I was busily blog-hopping on an Australian site earlier this week, so thought that I would have a go at one, so bear in mind that this is a prototype and still needs a little fine tuning. That said I am quite pleased with the result.
Colour combo is Poppy Parade, Old Olive and Very Vanilla. Stampsets used are Welcome Christmas and Season of Joy.

Here is the card fully closed

Cherry Cobbler Wreath

I have tried matting this one on Cherry Cobbler Cardstock - think I like this red better - it's richer. What do you think?

Pocket Silhouettes Wreath

I needed to find a card design that I could produce in bulk as I have so many Christmas cards to send each year.
I am quite pleased with the results of this one.
It is stamped in Old Olive and Real Red on Very Vanilla cardstock, using the sentiment from Season of Joy stamped in Chocolate Chip. This is then matted onto Read Red cardstock. The ribbon bow is Real Red 1/4" grosgrain.
Hmm - I like this one!

Season of Joy

Today I am off to Chris's (sis-in-law) for a day of crafting - what bliss!! I love Wednesdays.
My camera definitely doesn't like reds. This card is made in Real Red, but it looks like Poppy Parade in this photo! I have used the old favourite Christmas set Season of Joy and the sentiment from the Perfect Punches. The punched Round Tab is stamped with the "merry" from the Tiny Tags set. The ribbon is the Very Vanilla 1/4" grosgrain. Don't you just love it!!

Diagonal Double Pocket card - Farewell Merry Moments

Here are a couple of cards that Chris (Sis-in-law) and I have made today using the Merry Moments DP and the tree stamp from "Season Of Joy" inked in Garden Green.
These can be used to make a money wallet for Christmas, or alternatively, other DP can be substituted to suit the occasion.
