Christmas Gingy!

 
Hi, I thought I would share my Christmas makes with you these were so much fun to create!
I do love anything Gingerbread man related I find them so cute!
I  used a Sizzix Die for the card base and a CottageCutz Gingerbread man, when you open the card the circle spins and you can then see the sentiment on the other side, love this style of card!
 I also made these great candy dispensers using the WRMK gift box punch board and filled them with M and M's. I followed a fab tutorial you really must give this a go. After I had made them I will be honest I didn't want to give them away lol x
The lovely papers were free with a magazine and wish I had bought a couple of magazines as loved the colours and designs.
You just unhook the hatch at the bottom of Gingy's feet and shake your candy out - it is such a clever little box!

Sleigh Ride!

 Good Morning!
Whilst putting craft supplies away that had been lying gathering dust and unloved. I stumbled across this decoupage that I just had to have at the time!
I think this was last Christmas decoupage or dare I say may even have been the years before EEEKKK!!!
I just loved the style and colours and popped it out the packet and decided to rustle up a card - I know it's been so long I am surprised I remembered what I was doing lol x
So this is how it turned out and I love it!
Maybe this is the beginning of actually getting my Christmas cards done before December and rushing around like a mad thing!

Lawn Fawn 3D Box Card


Good Morning!!
As it is a lovely Sunshiny Day I thought you  may like to see my lovely 'sunshiny' :) card I made for my friend Stamping Caz!
 It was her birthday on Monday and as she likes cute -  that is exactly what she got, I knew straight away I just had to use the Lawn Fawn Into the woods stamp set and papers to create a little scene!
 One tiny little sparrow and then another came along..........
 On the flaps I also used the Lawn Fawn - winter sparrows set - Sooooo Tweet!!!
I know I have said before how easy they are to make but you really should have a pop at this style of card as the recipient really does appreciate it once opened!!!
Especially so if they are Crafters!!!!
