Balloons away handmade Box Card

I love making Box Cards, these are great for any occasion and I love how they fold flat for posting!

Today's little piece of inspiration uses the Lift Me Up Bundle, which you have seen me use a lot for sure as I just love how versatile it is, wedding, baby, young, mature, masculine, feminine, it just works for it all!

This card was part of a set of three we made at a class, it looks complex but really it is quite straight forward, I am considering selling some kits with pre-cut pieces for you to put together at home, but of course you would have to add your own stamped images as I am not permitted to include those.  Watch this space!

I love Blushing Bride and Smoky Slate together, I'm such a plain Jane, adore the subtle colours and struggle with the Brights!

I've also used the Birthday Bright stamp set from the Spring/Summer catalogue, another great selection of greetings to aid your cardmaking.

Santa's Sleigh Gift Box

My project today is a little window gift box, created using the wonderful Christmas stamp set that I have had soooo much use from

Santa's Sleigh

and I love the cute dies that co-ordinate with it too!

Cherry Cobbler is definitely my favourite Christmas red, what is yours?

I've teamed it here with Garden Green, another great colour for this time of year.  The Hearth and Home framelits have made another appearance, it's so useful and perfect for all occasions, Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter!

Here's a different view of the box:

Stitched Shapes

I have been using the Paisleys and Posies set recently to create some cards for a class I am running today.

Stampin' Up! have given us a "suite" of products that all co-ordinate and you can find them on Page 46 of the Autumn/Winter Catalogue

As my new Stitched Shapes framelits arrived I wanted to create something using them and this is what I came up with for my online customer thank you cards this month.

Here are the set of Stamps, so pretty and so many of them!

and the bundle which includes the matching Framelits Dies, remember you save 10% on your purchase when you buy as a bundle!

My colour combo is straight from the Petals and Paisley's Suite

Rich Razzleberry

Soft Suede

Delightful Dijon

Mint Macaron

Such a lovely autumnal array of colours

I am really loving the Copper Foil Sheets we now have too, it really brings everything together as the Paisleys DSP has sheets with copper foil in them.

So just remember the Stitched Shapes framelits are only available until 30th November don't miss out or you will have to wait quite a while until you will see them again as they won't be re-appearing until the release of the Annual Catalogue in 2017.

Also we have the 25% off on a selection of stamps, see below for more details:
