TASTEFUL TOUCHES CHRISTMAS CARD!

On our Team Zoom Christmas chat on the weekend we were given a Challenge. Use Non-Christmas products to create a Christmas card – in 20 minutes! YIKES!

I have to say it took me half that time to work out what I was going to do but here is my card.

I ended up using the Tasteful Touches stamp set and the Watercolor Shapes Stamp set. Also who would have thought that the You’re A Peach Designer Series Paper would work for Christmas.

What would you do? Why not give it a try.

Hope all your preparations are going well. It’s a crazy time.

Have a great week,

Jenny

VERY MERRY SWEET STOCKINGS CHRISTMAS!

Another cute one with the Sweet Little Stockings Bundle and the Sweet Stockings Designer Series Paper.

Did you know that the dies cut these stockings from the paper out?? Too clever. It saves a lot of cutting yourself right. 🙂

I also used the Merry Melody 3D Embossing Folder (of course added upside down, LOL!)

A MERRY LITTLE CHRISTMAS – WEEK 3 – STAR TABLE FAVOUR!

The Week 3 project for our “A Merry Little Christmas” Series is a sweet Star Table Favour that I think will look lovely on the Christmas table this Christmas. They are very easy to make so you can whip up a few in no time.

These have been inspired by a project I saw by Deb Valder from Stampladee some time ago. I adapted it for the Table favour. The measurements are available in Metric and Imperial further below.

Here is the Star Table Favour for you. It is made with the Stitched Stars Dies.

Catch the video below.
