5 minute Christmas Cards by Katy



If, like me, there is always someone you've accidentally missed off your Christmas card list, you might need some last minute Christmas cards! I created all six of these cards in well under an hour using just Rubber Dance stamps, Archival inkpads and limited palette of Distress Inks applied with a water brush.


The two cards with the repeated sentiments are super quick if you literally have minutes before a guest arrives!


This is my last post for 2015 so have a very Merry Christmas one and all - see you in 2016.

I used these Rubber Dance stamps:

Cosy Christmas

Frosty Friends

Winter Wonderland

Christmas Cheer and Tags

Lovely card, dear Katy! And yes, we all seem to forget someone, so this is a good solution ♥

Thank you, Katy! I'm sure there are many of us who need to make some cards in a hurry ... I for one! I simply refuse to send out store bought cards, and would much, MUCH rather spend a few minutes on some quick and easy cards like these :)

Always Sparkle - Envelope Book Tutorial by Sue

Image
Good afternoon and happy Saturday, welcome to the weekend! It's Sue here with my envelope book. Making your own books and journals is very popular at the moment, and I wanted to have a go. I also wanted to use supplies that I had already as it's just after Christmas and I'm already in 2022's craft budget. So I have quite a few of these -  Colour Craft lustre paints. Loads of these - rather posh DL pearlised envelopes. I bought a box full in a closing down sale, so have a box full less 3! And these, my favourite bright StazOn inks. So to work (well play really, I'm making it all up as I go along) I started by painting my envelopes with the paints, then added some stencilling in a contrasting colour. I've used totally different colours so that I've got a choice of colours for my toppers. I've used metallics on this one and they are really nice! For the 'in between...

Altered Chipboard Butterfly + Giveaway

Image
Message in Norwegian : Hvis du foretrekker å lese dette innlegget på norsk, kan du gjøre det og samtidig bli med på giveawayen på den andre bloggen vår ved å klikke her. Hello everyone! Bibi here today with a fun project, using the Totem Monarch Poppet chipboard from EyeConnect Crafts . I had such a blast with this and I hope what I've made will inspire you to make something similar. The difference between the chipboards from EyeConnect Crafts and others ones I've seen out there, is that they are made to connect (hence the name). There are two categories, one called Lace-Ups which you bind together using ribbons, string, lace, etcetera and another category of chipboards with smaller holes so you can connect the pieces using tiny eyelets or brads. This is what it looks like. The pieces are laser cut, and you easily remove them from the base - save that part and use it as a stencil for another project. Notice there is also a chipboard of the butterfly's...
