A Jolly Bright Christmas!

Lostinpaper -Christmas - SSS One with Nature / Avery Elle - Holly Jolly Die

Merry Christmas!  I know, I know, it’s not everywhere in the world yet, but it is for us, so big hugs and hope you have the most fantabulous day (I’m just starting it early for some of you)!

Today I thought I would share this bright Summery Christmas card which was the call for the Australian Cardmaking, Stamping & Papercraft magazine where it was published.

I don’t know about you but I always forget to make my tags… that is until I start wrapping the presents lol.  And this is not necessarily a bulk tag to create but it is perfect for that special person or family.  But it was fun to make so I thought I would share the process with you!

Video : Creating Snowflake Leaves is Easy!

Love stretching my supplies and today my card features some ‘Snowflake Leaves’ from Penny Black, and I filmed so you can watch the process.

I was inspired by this wonderful card HERE that Jill Foster made, where I first saw the idea to use these flakes as leaves and she did make the most fabulous wreath…  I gotta do that myself, how clever she is!

If I had time, I would love to have made this same card but instead of my ‘leaves’ make them glittery snowflakes, but alas time is precious right now, maybe another day…

Loving this busy time of year though, trying not to make it too stressful and totally enjoying the sparkly lights on my Christmas tree!  Hope you are having holiday fun too, Hugs
