Snowballs for Christmas!

I punched out four scallop squares & run them through the cuttlebug Snowflake folder. I then stuck them to a piece of white card then onto the red card.

I cuttlebugged some circles & added a daisy shaped brad to the centres.

I glued on some tiny white "snowballs" to make it look as if the snowman (Playful Snowman from Whipper Snapper) was either juggling them or just throwing them up in the air! (Did I mention I love snowmen?!)

Candy Purse!

To make these ever-so cute! candy purses, I used my Scor-pal to score the lines.

You need a piece of card 1 1/2 inches wide by about 5 1/2 inches in length.

Turn the card length wise & score at 1 1/4 inches, 2 1/2 inches, 4 inches, 4 1/4 inches & finally at 5 1/2 inches. Cut the card off at 5 1/2 inches.

Fold the score lines. Punch the top as seen in photo. On the inside of the second fold, place a strip of double sided sticky tape & stick some candy to the tape. Along the two narrow folds (at 4 & 4 1/4 ) stick a piece of ribbon to either end. This will be the handle of the purse. Fold down the front (punched piece of card) of the purse & stick with a small piece of tape on the inside. These look cute hanging on the Christmas tree - I made mine to give away as small gifts to my friends. You can embellish the purse as much or as little as you like. The measure ments for this card will depend on how big a piece of candy you put inside. The bigger the candy the bigger the purse!

Thanks to Dawn for this great idea!

Angel

I've been playing with one of my EK Success corner punches today - the idea came from Cambria for the edge on this card! I took off the V shape casing & carefully punched one side of the red card. I glued a strip of green card behind it to show up the fancy edge. The angel stamp is from Hero Arts. I stamped her several times on various coloured paper then cut out each bit to make her dress a "patchwork". I then glued the corresponding bits to the stamped image. I have added some gems & red heart shaped brads to the card. The red card has embossed vertical lines on it - hard to see on here.

Ginger Bread People!

After I cuttlebugged the front of this card, using the Snowflakes folder, I added the tiny green mittens & punched out ginger bread people.

My plan was to make a few quick & easy cards, which you will see I have done if you scroll down. Sadly, some of the colours are not showing up too well. This card is a pale lilac colour which isn't too bad, but the iridescent silver ones don't look all that good on here! Bummer! :-(

Oh well, you live & LEARN, huh!

Mittens

This card is similar to the one below, except I've used a silver coloured card. It's actually an iridescent silver but doesn't show up too well on here.

I used the Sledding embossing folder & added Kindy Glitz to Frosty & other bits on the card.

I wanted quick & easy cards when I did these!

Mittens for Frosty!

This card was cuttlebugged using the Sledding embossing folder. I added Kindy Glitz to part os the card & glued on some tiny mittens i had. I added a blue brad to match the mittens. I aslo added a silver snowflake to the card.

The card is actually a nice bright green but it hasn't shown up here as it should have. :-(

Rudolph

I cuttlebugged the front of this card, with the snowflakes folder. I punched out a 3 inch oval scallop shape & stuck a foam Rudolph on to it. (They come in a packet of about 30 or more) I also cuttlebugged the oval shape. I added a bow under Rudolph & stuck the oval to the card using double sided foam tape.

I added some tiny gems to some of the snowflakes.

That's about all I did to this card! Another quick & easy card!
