Merry Christmas and Happy World Cardmaking Day !! :-)

HAPPY WORLD CARDMAKING DAY !! :-) 

I hope all you card makers out there have managed to get some crafty time in today especially as it is OUR DAY :-)

I made 2 cards for the Less Is More White Christmas Challenge using some of the new Simon's Exclusive 2013 Christmas Release :-) 

I used last weeks fab sketch for this 1st one.

I really think that sketch was perfect for an aperture card, which is why I have made 3 so far  :-)

For this one I used a gorgeous Eliza Snowflake die and glittered it up ,,, so pretty

Next up is this one which uses the new Suspension Tree Die ,,,, the tree can spin ! Cool eh ! :-)

I used a new Falling Snow Stencil and scraped over some Embossing Paste to create the snow. Then I let that dry before cutting a hole in the middle. I will link all the products I used at the bottom.

Thanks for looking :-) I hope you are all enjoying a day of cardmaking too !

I have made 3 cards to share today ! 

First up is this super cute card using the 'Happy Meowday' stamp set and Merry Christmas Dies. I made an aperture for the front and used acetate to cover the hole from the inside. 

For this one I followed the fab sketch on the Less Is More Challenge

I love this funky new Layered Tree die too ! This is a super quick and easy one to do and will probably be the one that I mass produce :-) I used sookwang double sided tape and die cut the star and baubles and then used glitter ritz for sparkle ,,,, love that glitter :-)
