Washi Tape Christmas Bauble

Another quick & easy card to add to your stash is this

Christmas bauble using washi tape.  Washi tape is very forgiving & if you don't line it up the first time then you can carefully lift it up again & re stick it.  Our embossing folders are fantastic, they have deep impressions so there is no need to put them through the Cuttle Bug or Big Shot more than once.  I just love my Big Shot, it's such a sturdy machine & it gets alot of use.    I used a ShinHan marker to colour in the clear sparkles to match ink.    This card inspired by Sue-Ellen Robertson.                                                                                                                                       
The following products I have used are:-  White Card & Envelope Value Pack X254,   Chevron Embossing Folder Z1925, Gold Polka-Dot Washi Tape Z1920, Ruby Chevron Washi Tape Z1933,  Bronze Shimmer Trim Z1849, Santa Claus Stamp Set C1567, Silver Shimmer Trim Z1799, Cranberry Cardstock 1272, White Daisy Cardstock 1385, Sparkles Clear Assortment Z1752, Carmine ShinHan Touch Twin Marker Z2448 & Cranberry Exclusive Ink Pad Z2116.

Yuletide Carol & Snowhaven Cards

With Close To My Heart I belong to a very talented group of ladies from all over Australia.   We help each other, share ideas & give inspiration.   Inspired by Margaret Moroney. These were a hit with my workshop ladies who broke out & started using this pattern for birthday & other cards.

The papers used are from the Yuletide Carol X7187B & Snowhaven X7188B Paper Packs (you use 4 of the front & 4 from the back to make the pattern), these 2 packs are so versatile you could even use them or other projects other than Christmas, it's only your imagination.

Sparkle & Shine Christmas Gift Tags & Gift Box

 

I had alot of fun making this Gift Card & Box set for a Secret Santa.  The Box, note cards & some trimmings were cut using the Cricut machine.  I used a variety of Christmas stamps I have mixed with other embellishments, did a bit of colouring & this is the outcome.   A gift box filled with 10 cute mini cards.
