A few Christmassy things

I'm slowly making a few Christmas cards here and there so will soon have enough for my work colleagues, friends, family and for my mum and mother-in-law to send out as well!

This first one is for Stampin' Royalty's #47 for the sketch, CC298 to use Chocolate Chip, Cherry Cobbler and Crumb Cake, Free For All #27 to use snow and distressing and for Papertake Weekly's Cut It Out challenge to use die cuts or punches - I used both!

Recipe:

Stamps: Background Basics: Christmas, Big & Bold Holiday Wishes both from PTI, The Snowflake Spot, A Tree for all Seasons both from SU

Papers: Crumb Cake, Chocolate Chip, Very Vanilla

Inks: Chocolate Chip, Crumb Cake, Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White

Accessories: Circle Nestabilities, Double Loops MS Border Punch, Diamond Stickles, Ribbon from stash, Distressing Tool

My next one is for Mojo #166 for the sketch and CC297 to use Perfect Plum, Baja Breeze and Pear Pizzazz. My image panel is not quite long enough, but I think I can get away with it.

My last card for this weekend is for Farm Fresh Friday's sketch challenge, CC90 to use Blush Blossom, True Thyme (which I subbed with Old Olive) and Cranberry Crisp (which I subbed with Purely Pomegranate) and for the ILWS Faux Tearing technique challenge.

And my final Christmassy thing for today is a Flapper box! I joined the Secret Santa swap on the ILWS forum and this is the box I made for the person I'm buying for. I thought I would enter this in the Just Us Girls challenge #61 to make a 3D christmas embellishment - ok mine's just a few snowflakes stuck together but I think it still counts! This is also for the ILWS gift packaging challenge, but I can't upload it just yet as I haven't sent it out yet!

Stamps: The Snowflake Spot (retired), Curly Cute both from SU

Papers: Night of Navy, Not Quite Navy, Whisper White all from SU

Inks: Night of Navy, Not Quite Navy, Bashful Blue

Accessories: Flapper Box Template from My Time Made Easy, Night of Navy ribbon from SU, Snowflakes dies from Sizzix, Brad from Papermania

And that's all for today folks. Thanks for stopping by!
