12 days of Christmas - Ten - Stamparatus



I dug out my all time favourite set 'Lovely as a tree' for this card. This set is the one that got me hooked on Stampin' Up! two years ago. I have used the amazing stamparatus tool to help line up the tree and sentiment perfectly. I use the grid lines on the perspex hinged sheets to make sure the stamps are straight and then use grid paper with little pen marks so that I know where my piece of card needs to go. The stamparatus has so many uses, perfect alignment, repeat patterns (horizontal, vertical or in a circle) and multiple identical images. It was such a good investment and now spares are also available.

The card itself is really simple; pretty dsp, a little layering and single colour stamping. With the stamparatus this one could be replicated many times over in no time at all. The Joyous Noel dsp is amazing, there isn't a single sheet that I don't like and with each card only using 1/4 of a sheet you could literally make 48 cards with one pack.

12 days of Christmas - Nine - The beauty of the season

I think this may be my favourite so far. I love the sentiment and the colours are so calming.
I have used dies from the new in the woods set and from seasonal layers from the current annual catalogue. The colours are gray granite, crumb cake and pool party. The little silver dots are waste from the snowflake but too perfect not to use.

12 days of Christmas - Eight - Spirited Snowmen

Out come the snowmen again! I love these happy little guys, they are so easy to colour and you don't even need to use the whole image. I really like the bright colours in this card and the spotty dsp in pacific point kind of looks like snow.

12 days of Christmas - Seven - Joyous Noel

Here is Christmas card number seven and I’m using designer series paper for the first time, this paper comes from the Joyous Noel collection and it is really beautiful. The key colours in the papers is merry merlot and tranquil tide with plenty of copper foil.

I felt the paper needed to be the main focus so just added a part stamped/part die cut sentiment and a small sprig of foliage to add dimension. This was so easy to put together and used just 1/4 sheet of dsp so there’s plenty more to play with.

12 days of Christmas - six - Making Christmas Bright


So here we are, half way through my ‘12 days of Christmas’ collection and I’ve used Making Christmas Bright again, this time using petal pink, blackberry bliss and mint macaron. Not traditional Christmas colours but I think they work well together.
