Snowball Fight

This is the final card that I have created with my Authentique Frosted collection, I still have a few bits left but I'm running out of inspiration now, do you run out of inspiration when trying to use up a whole pad of paper?  I have used a couple of sheets of the papers to create some gift bags, I am making 30 for my teacher son to pop some bits and pieces in for his class at Christmas - I make them for him most years.

I added some heart shaped buttons from my stash and a stamped sentiment, the ribbon is the same colour as the purple on the image but my camera has decided differently!

Thank you for popping in today and thank you for all of the lovely comments that you leave, they are all read and much appreciated.

You Warm my Heart

I'm still on a mission to use up my Authentique Frosted Collection, I hope you're not getting fed up with all of my Christmas Cards.

This is a much more simple card, I've tried to make it suitable to post by only adding a thin layer of foam pads behind the topper.  Everything is from the Authentique Collection, including the sentiment, I just added some dark blue card stock.

Sweater Weather

I have another Christmas card to share today, I have used my Authentique Frosted Collection again, I'm determined to start using up some of my many Authentique collections!

I have used one of the Cut-Aparts along with three of the papers, I really like the colours in this collection.  I used an old Spellbinders die to cut the Poinsettias, I cut some from the patterned papers and one from white card stock.  I also used my Die-namics Fishtail Flag Dies to cut the banners,

Gift Card Holders

I have created a couple of gift card holders to give a family friend's children for Christmas.

I have used my Authentique Frosted collection again, I used a Hunkydory die to cut the shaped flap and added a little pocket to the inside for the gift card.  I used two of the images from the Cut-Apart sheets along with several of the papers, all I have added is some cardstock and hook and loop dots to hold them closed - they are both the same on the inside so I have only photographed one of them.

Days like these

This is another card that I have created with my Authentique Frosted Collection, this time I used the purple themed papers.

Again, everything is from the collection with the exception of some cardstock and gems.  I used my Spellbinders dies to cut the Poinsettis and added a doily and a snowflake.

Hot Chocolate

I am trying to be more organised for Christmas this year, I'm usually rushing around at the last minute trying to get everything finished!  I have bought most of my Christmas presents so I thought it was time to finish my Christmas cards.

I used my Authentique Frosted collection to create this card, there are lots of pretty blues and purples in this collection, I was inspired by a card that I saw on the Authentique Blog and used the blue themed papers.  Everything is from the collection except some card stock and gems.  I fussy cut the image and added a die cut doily, the Poinsettias are a spellbinders die and the other flowers are a Joy Crafts die, I also added some snowflakes and stars.
