Tealight Gift Packages

My video tutorial today is a quick and easy way to give

a small gift, ie tealights, sweets, biscuit/teabag etc.

I am always looking small ideas to pop into my customers

card orders and this week I am going with tealights.

It's a great way to use up scraps of dsp.

All the items I have used are hopefully still available

and at a greatly reduced price!!

Timeless Tulips Gap Card Tutorial

I had a few requests to show how I made the

Gap Card from last week, so I made

a tutorial.

This is a different one, made for my

Sister-in-law who turns 60 this month,

but the exact same concept.

You can watch the video here

This time I have used Timeless Tulips

for the main image.

I used the lovely Curvy Dies to make the gaps

and the papers are Oh So Ombre.

Oval Occasions bundle was used for one sentiment

and Lovely Labels Pick a Punch for the top sentiment.

I used the circle layering dies for the front and insides.

Butterfly Gap Card

Happy Monday!

I made this card for a customer last week

following the theme from Valerie's

Butterfly Challenge

G for Gap card.

I had just received my new Curvy Dies and thought they

would be perfect to make the front a bit more interesting

along the gap.

I went with Flirty Flamingo colours in the card, ink and brights papers.

The image is a pre printed one from LOTV.

I stamped the butterflies using Butterfly Gala stamp set

and punched out with butterfly duet punch.

The sentiment is from Strong & Beautiful stamp set.

I punched the sentiment out using the

Lovely Labels Pick a Punch and

added some blushing bride metallic ribbon.

Snow is still lying here, very crispy after a

night of minus temperatures

but the sun is shinning!!

I am happy to say my little blog tool has returned

making editing much quicker!

I am hoping anyone who has shopped with me this month

has, by now, received their goodies.

If not, please be patient. With all the trouble at the docks,

covid and brexit the world is just fighting against us!

Stampin' Up! are on top of their end and hopefully

everything will settle down soon.

 

Poinsettia Petals Christmas Card

Happy Monday!

Well blogger has shifted me over yet again to the new look!

Took me all day Sunday to get my posts done, normally takes me an hour!

My card today is one for my Christmas box.

I have used the beautiful Poinsettia Petals stamp set.

I stamped the backing paper with the berries and then stamped the

flower using the white ink pad and cut out the layers.

There is a die set that goes with this set but I foolishly didn't get it!

The leaves were stamped then coloured and cut.

Check out my shop links below.

I had a lovely visit from my brother and sister-in-law

who flew over from England. We sat in the back garden

and thankfully got beautiful weather!

Today is a different story with the rain back in full swing!

Have a great week everyone.
