Christmas Card Workshop

By
Yesterday was my monthly Tuesday morning workshop and we were making Christmas cards. This is the main card that we made


I made each of my ladies a little kit containing everything they needed to make this card and I think they all had fun doing it. I am also posting a quick tutorial on how to make this card on my Craft Club blog if you would like to make it too.
We also had time to make this card too - this was very quick and easy to make and could easily be made in bulk


This is made using the Stampin' Up Pennant punch (cunningly swiped from Louise a couple of weeks ago!) and this makes a cute little 3D Christmas tree - it also folds flat for easy posting.
The last card looks quite quick to make but believe me it took ages punching out the pine fronds as my punch is very stiff and I ended up having to stand on it to get it to work!!


Once you have all the elements ready it doesn't take long to assemble and both cards will have tutorials to go with them on the Craft Club blog soon.
Thanks for looking, see you soon - Jacqueline xx

    They're wonderful Jacqueline especially the first. I adore that bead embellishment! Vx

    PS You should definitely get that vermillion on your wish list - I know you would make amazing things with it!

    Hi Jacqueline !
    These are lovely; my favourite is the first as it features " Lovely as a Tree " and the Christmas blue/white combination which reminds me that I haven't played with this combo this year ! Love the wreath too, do you mind if I case this idea, you know how I love wreaths ! ?

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr

 I have decided to try and get on top of my Christmas cards early this year and so far it’s going well!!! Here is a card that has been made using the Sweet Gingerbread set - I love gingerbread houses and the stamps and matching dies are really cute. I used the sketch from  52 Christmas Card Throwdown  - this is a brilliant Christmas challenge blog (I started it many years ago with Mynn Kitchen) and it’s a perfect way to get organised with Christmas crafting. Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx
