Please pop by the challenge blog to see what our lovely guest, and the DT have made :-)

I love making little gifts to give to family and friends and these little Post-It Note holders are always popular and handy to have around ;-) 

For this first one I used a super cute House Mouse 'Gifts To Tie' Cling Stamp 



This first one is for my Sister In-Law who is hosting the family gathering dinner this year. I coloured with Copic Markers and added a little shading with Prismacolor Pencils. To bind the little booklet I used a Bind It All tool but the We R Memory Keepers Cinch Tool is very similar and is way at the top of my wish list ;-) 

I scrribbled the ground using an embossing pen and then embossed with Stampendous Shabby White Enamel, I love the gold shimmer in this, so pretty :-)  


inside 


and for this 2nd one I used a now discontinued 'oldie but goodie' 'Amanda Writes' stamp which I hope will be re-released. It's perfect for adding any occasion text! 

I added a few ink drips by masking and inking areas of a Kaisercraft Speckles Mini Stencil




So now it's YOUR turn to take out whatever you like and create whatever takes YOUR fancy! :-)

I used a Be Jolly Clear Stamp Set  and made 2 cards


First up is this cute little Rudolph with his gorgeous smile, I even added a little touch of glitter onto one of his teeth, (think 'Colgate' advert) 😁


I used a Simon's Exclusive Stitched Window Frame Die and created a little miniature winter wonderland using a Tim Holtz Deer and Woodland Tree 


and I finished the inside using a Your Next Stamp Large Ink Splatter Clear Stamp


For my next card I wanted Santa to look like he was bursting out of a gift so I used a Score Board to create a little box.





and I finised the inside using a Simon's Exclusive Perforated Flaps Die 


I will pop a little cash in here ;-)
