Christmas Wreath

My blog buddy Jules has been posting lots of "quick and easy", her words not mine, Christmas cards and she has inspired me to get on and do the same.  You can find the cards that Jules has been creating HERE.

I think Jules has been more successful than me but I'm not going to give up that easily, I have a few more ideas I will be trying!  I used a download that I found on Etsy along with a die cut sentiment from Creative Crafting World, I've kept it really flat because it will be going in the post.

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.

Candy Cane

I have created this card for this months Rudolph Days Challenge, it's the final one for this year.

I have used my Simple Stories Simple Vintage North Pole Collection, I purchased the Collection Kit and loved it so much that I picked up the digital collection as well so that I could print multiple copies of the images and create some decoupage layers.

I would like to enter this card into the November Rudolph Days Challenge.

Autumn Time

Whilst I had my Graphic 45 - Time to Flourish collection on my desk I decided to create a card with the leftover pieces from the September pages.

My Inspiration came from one of the Project Sheets on the Graphic 45 website, I changed it up a bit to make it my own.

Time to Flourish Album

I decided to create a Mini Album/Birthday Book with my Graphic 45 Time to Flourish collection, I thought I would start with the Autumn Months.

I used a Graphic 45 Ivory Rectangle Tag & Pocket Album, I will create my own album in future though, it is much easier to decorate than a ready made one.

I'm not very happy with it so far and don't know if I will bother to finish it, I seem to run out of inspiration and get bored after a little while at the moment!

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!

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,
