Say Cheese!

 Good morning and a very happy Sunday. 

Today I'm sharing a photo wallet made with the fabulous Sam's Seasonal Collection from Relatively Thoughtful.

This is such a beautiful collection, and the bold patterns are perfect for the wallet.

The dies are by CoolKats and they are huge! They need a full sheet of A4.

And this means that the wallet holds full-sized 6x4 photos. These are last year's trip to see Santa, and yes, this years visit is already planned!

This is the back of the wallet. Aren't these papers gorgeous?

I love these poinsettias!

Here's Grandad Neil in his Christmas shirt lol.

The collection can be found here

We Wish You A Merry Christmas

 Good morning and a very happy Saturday, welcome to the weekend!

Today I'm sharing another 8x8 card made with the fabulous Winnie the Pooh Christmas collection from Echo Park, for sale at Relatively Thoughtful.

Once again I've used the papers from the 12x12 collection. These fabulous 6x4 cut-aparts make perfect instant toppers.

I've added a sheet of snowy acetate as an overlay as a finishing touch.

These colours are so lovely, and there's a mixture of patterns and images on the double-sided sheets.

Just a little bit of stitching then they know it's from me lol. These cute images are from the cardstock sticker sheet that I've layered up.

The little bauble and holly elements are stickers too. They add a lovely (and easy) touch.

You can find the collection here

Merry Christmas from Winnie

 Good morning and a very happy Monday. It seems like only yesterday that I was here lol.

Today I'm sharing an 8x8 Christmas card made with the fun Winnie the Pooh Christmas collection by Echo Park, and on sale at Relatively Thoughtful.

I LOVE this collection. I bought it to make a mini album, but it's perfect for those special Christmas cards too.

The 12x12 papers also contain 6x4 cut apart sheets, so that's a ready-made topper. I just added some layering and stitching.

Let's face it, Winnie the Pooh isn't just for children!

This is from the cardstock ephemera pack that I've layered up and very carefully cut out. Yes, apparently I do stick my tongue out when I'm concentrating!

The tree embellishment is from a self-adhesive chipboard sheet and adds a perfect (and quick) finishing touch. The snowflakes underneath are on a sheet of acetate that I've put over the base layers and under the embellishments.

Christmas Feelings

 Good morning and a very happy Sunday. I'm really into the Christmas crafting now, and I'm preparing a little G45 ATC album ready for my Christmas photographs.

This is such a cute little album so it needs a cute paper collection. I've used the Winnie the Pooh Christmas collection by Echo Park, and for sale at Relatively Thoughtful.

Sally has got the whole collection in the store. From 12x12 papers, to a 6x6 mega pad, chipboard, stickers, washi tape, and stamps. (Yes this does all live at my house) lol.

It's a fabulous little album - perfect for ATC's, or in my case 3x4 photographs. There's also pocket pages, so extra room for photos.

The image is 3x4, so I can swap this out with a Christmas photo. The image on the inside cover is held on with one of the colourful washi tapes.

I've done the same on the back cover. Isn't it just the cutest!

I'll be back later in the month and show you some of the pages with last year's Christmas photos.

A Winnie the Pooh Christmas

 Good morning and a very happy Sunday! Today I'm sharing a Christmas card made with the fabulous Winnie the Pooh Christmas collection. As well as designing her own papers, Sally also stocks other collections, and this one is from Echo Park. 

Isn't this a cutie!! The papers are 6x6 and the pad has a massive 48 sheets! (watch this space for an album next month)

The pads also contain journalling cards so it's really easy to make a topper for a card.

I've also added a chipboard sticker in the corner.

The papers are a full 6x6, and they also have a header, so I've used these to make the little banners.

There are sentiment sheets too, so it's the perfect little card for a friend's toddler for Christmas.

This is a full collection with stamps, stickers, chipboard and 12x12 papers, and the best bit is that it's in the sale!!!!

I'd like to say that I've made all of my Christmas cards, but I would be telling big, fat, lies!!

It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas

 Good morning and a very happy Sunday. Yep it's getting around to that time of year again, so here comes the Christmas crafting lol. This card's been made with the beautiful Sam's Seasonal Collection for Relatively Thoughtful.

I really like this collection, it has such a traditional but not old-fashioned feel to it!

I printed the sheets a couple of times so that I could cut around the foliage and layer it up.

I've had this Tim Holtz Bigz die since time began, and he comes out every Christmas. I rather like his dapper frock-coat, I would definitely wear one of these!

He's been layered up with lots of different papers.

And I've added a bit of bling, 'cos it's Christmas!

As always the collection is available in both A4 and digital formats.

Happy Anniversary

 Good morning and a very happy Sunday. Today I'm really happy to be sharing an anniversary card made with the beautiful Romance Forever collection from Stamperia.

This is such a beautiful collection, perfect for weddings and anniversaries.

There are also matching chipboard ephemera pieces as you can see from this fabulous chunky watch face.

The colours are so gentle, and the papers take inks and heat embossing beautifully. 

There are lots of smaller pieces of ephemera, such as these butterflies.

Isn't this flower spray stunning. It's from Little Birdie and there are many different ones in the store.

The collection can be found here.
