Table Favours!

Yesterday Maddy and I sat and made 25 table favours for a Christmas party we're going to tonight.  They were so easy to make and  I'm sure will be a lovely surprise for the group!

I've used the pillow box die, some DSP and Maddy made all the poinsettia flowers for me while I was assembling the boxes.  We filled them with a mini mentos roll, a butterscotch lolly and a mint chew lolly!

Hope you like them!

My 10 Minute Christmas Card!

I thought I'd post a pic of this card I made a bunch of yesterday because if you're anything like me, you just don't seem to have enough hours in the day come this time of year,  and making Christmas cards NEEDS to be easy and most of all quick!

This little number I guarantee you can whip up in under 10 minutes!  Check it out!

It's pretty much the same colour scheme as my previous post, however I've used Real Red this time instead of Cherry Cobbler!

Hope you like it and that perhaps it helps you out of a tight spot with your Christmas cards this year!

Trying Out My New Dies!

Hi all!

Just popping in to show you the card I just finished making using my new Spellbinders Poinsettia dies that I picked up this morning!  I've been eyeing these off for ages, and have seen some lovely cards made using them so thought I'd better get me some! lol

Lucy Dillon/Crafty Cat has another 3 sets in stock right now here in Mackay, so be quick to grab a set if you like them cause I reckon they will sell fast!:)

Here's my card anyway!

I kept it really simple cause I wanted the flower to be the show stopper.  I've used a lovely Christmas colour combo of Vanilla, Cherry Cobler and Garden Green with a hint of So Saffron.  You can't really see it in the photo, but the cream panel has been embossed using my Linen Impression plate from Papertrey Ink!  It just gives it a gentle texture I find and it would probably be my absolute favourite impression plate!

At lease I now have a grand total of 1 Christmas cards done! GO ME! lol  Now to just find the time to get a few more complete!

Catch ya later!
