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.


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.

I turned out AWESOME!

This is the card that I created for my eldest son to give his Dad, this time I used the Simple Stories Dad Life collection.


I have the digital collection so I just printed the papers that I needed along with the topper, I computer generated the sentiment and cut it into a fishtail flag shape.  I also added some enamel dots from my stash.

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.

The man, the myth, the legend

This is the card that I created for my youngest son to give his Dad, very different from the one I gave him!


I saw a card similar to this on Pinterest and decided to create my own take on it.  I used some very old Memory Box Alphabet Dies to cut the letters, I cut them from fun foam and some dotty papers that I had in my stash.  I layered them up and attached them to the card, I computer generated the words and added fun foam to the back of them before attaching them to the card.  I used some more of the dotty papers to decorate the inside of the card.
