Snowman Soup & Reindeer Food!!

Hi all. I have been making up alot of these little beauties for Christmas Fayre's recently and want to share with you all. They have been so popular over the years, that I make them every year now and just change the packaging slightly. Now we have the big shot and top note die, I can use this as my toppers...finally!!!
The snowman soup is made up a hot chocolate mix, mini marshmallows, a candy cane and a Hershey chocolate kiss (available in Asda now)! The poem had been printed out onto whisper white and adhered to the top note from the subtles paper stash in bashful blue.
Here is a close up of the poem;
The next is the wonderful Reindeer Food! The kids love this and it's just magical to them, sprinkling it out on Christmas Eve for the reindeer to find your house! It's simply porridge oats and edible food sprinkles wrapped up in a cello bag with the poem printed out and some nice ribbon. 

I printed the poem onto very vanilla and punched it out with the decorative label punch. I layered it over some cherry cobbler punched out with the extra large oval punch and tied with some red striped gross grain ribbon! Cute eh?!




10 minute magic!

Hello there and today I am sharing another quick 10 minute magic card. I have used the birds from the clearly for you stamp set, a greeting from teeny tiny wishes and the timeless portrait dsp paper. I cut a piece of the dsp to the desired size and added some beautiful victoria crochet trim to the top. I stamped the bird image and the greeting in cherry cobbler.
There you have it! Quick and easy all in 10 minutes or less!

Pennant Punch

I have had the pennant punch for some time now and haven't really played around with it until today. I searched splitcoaststampers.com yet again to draw inspiration and came across a lovely shabby chic card.
 I changed it slightly to make it my own so here goes.
Calypso coral was my card base and I stamped the sentiment from curly cute in crumb cake. I used the border scallop punch in early espresso and then cut some very vanilla to size, sponged in crumb cake and distressed the edges. I cut a thin strip of espresso and added it to the top of the vanilla and glued this all down onto the coral. I then punched out my pennants. I did 4 in pink pirouette card stock, 3 in wild wasabi and 2 in baja breeze dsp. I sponged all the edges again and adhered onto the vanilla. Once they were all on, I added some gorgeous pearls and a strip of baja breeze dsp underneath.

10 minute magic!

Today's card is a quick and easy card to make in less than 10 minutes! I used the forever young stamp set with co-ordinating dsp called timeless portrait. I used whisper white as my card base and cut some dsp showing the island indigo print, i made sure i left about a third free at the top for my stamped image and greeting.
i added a thin strip of lucky limeade card stock to the top of the dsp to add a splash of colour. For the image i used the frame stamp and inked this in island indigo. i then stamped the girls image onto my stamp-a-ma-jig and lined it up over the frame to make sure it would stamp perfectly! this was inked in the same colour and finally so was the greeting from teeny tiny wishes! all in less than 10 minutes!! x
