Christmas Presents

This card isn't so much about the dsp used, it's more about how easy this card is as well as all the benefits.

If anything, it demonstrates you do not need a tonne of expensive supplies to make great christmas cards.

You can use what you have in your stash and still create beautiful cards.


So here is what I learned:

Any colour combo will work, traditional or non traditional would look gorgeous.

You don't  need dies to cut the "boxes". If you don't have square or rectangle dies, simple cut some shapes with your paper trimmer. So dies are not necessary.

ANY christmas themed dsp will work, its a great way to use up those odd left over scraps.

Really all you need is a good Bow Die. Mine unfortunately is not a Stampin' Up! die. I did source one online just for this card but it didn't cost a packet either.

With the sentiment, you don't have to foil, I was just tring to be fancy, you could totally just stamp and hand trim or die cut it out and pop up with dimensionals.

This card lends itself to alot of possibilities and no complication either.
You can choose to emboss the background with your fave folder or you don't have to do that either.

The card also didnt' take me all that long to make so this would be a great design to do in bulk if you tend to send alot of christmas cards.

I really love this card. I saw something similar on socials and knew I had to make my own version.

Thanks for stopping by to check out my festive card today.

Just fyi, the A Stitched Season DSP is currently in Last Chance!

Until next time

Happy Stamping!!

Radiant Sunflowers

I saw this great fun fold over on Susan Campfields You Tube channel.

It looked fun and easy so I chose it for my teams Monthly Card Challenge.

It's certainly not reinventing the wheel, which I like, crafting shouldn't be complicated. But it is fun!


Sunflowers seem to be all the rage at the moment and I LOVE the Sunflower Fields Suite in the September to December catalogue.

So I chose products from this suite to decorate my fun fold.

Coordinating products make it so easy!

The 26-28 In Color Golden Glow would have to be one of my faves in this years release. It goes with alot of colours.

I die cut the vase out of the specialty paper from the suite and I due cut 2 large sunflowers and then off set them before adhering them, so the flower looks fuller.

I'm really happy with this card and I look forward to sending it to someone soon.

Creative Celebrations

If you are looking for quick and easy, no fuss, coordinating products for your Christmas cards without spending a packet buying lots of different products just to make a few cards, then what you really need is the Creative Celebrations Mix & Match DSP.

If you are like me and you are making alot of cards this year for Christmas, you probably don't want them all the same BUT you want to make them in bulk.


Thats where a Mix n Match pack is brilliant. 

In this particular pack, you get 36 sheets of 6" x 6" double sided dsp and 2 sheets each of 2 pre cut designed die cuts.

Now you can also pair these with the Festive Flecks Mix n Match Cards and Envelopes for more coordination. 

Or use the Season of Celebration Mix n Match Ephemera Pack for even more die cuts as well as sentiments, so no need to stamp.

For my card, I've cut my own card base from coordinating coloured cardstock, used the dsp for a layer and then added a Scalloped die cut to place everything on.

Ive added the large floral die cut and then stamped my own sentiment in Secret Sea.

A few coordinating In Colour dots to embellish and WOW, talk about easy. I love this card.

Thankyou for stopping by to check out my card today.
