Angela's PaperArts: Noel Floating Gap Christmas card

My cardmaking for Christmas this year is well on its way.

This 'Noel' Floating Gap card features some gorgeous Stampin' Up! products including the Joy of Noel bundle, Christmas Classics dies and the Joyful Speciality Designer Series Paper.

Here's a side view of the card which also folds flat for posting in a 15x15cm/6x6" envelope.

Here's how I decorated the back of the card. The rectangle panel has plenty of room to write a message to the card recipients.

Angela's PaperArts: Stars at Night pyramid card

As soon as I saw the Stampin' Up! Stars at Night bundle and the gorgeous foiled Shining Brightly specialty designer series paper, I knew I was going to make many Christmas cards this year using these products.

This pyramid card features these products along with the Brightest Glow stamp set and Labels Aglow die set which I used to create the sentiment.

The Stars at Night bundle includes a hybrid dies and embossing folder set together with the Stars at Night stamp set. Effectively the three biggest star dies can be added to the embossing folder to cut and emboss the large stars in one pass through your die-cutting machine which is a time saver.

Here's how I placed the dies in the folder to get the stars embossed and diecut in one pass.

I used the largest diecut star for my pyramid card and also added an Adhesive Backed Star Trinket onto the diecut star for extra embellishment. 

You can also see that I added another Adhesive Backed Star Trinket onto the sentiment strip too.

Angela's PaperArts: Step wedding card

Do you have paper that you're keeping for a special occasion?  I have a small amount of 'special' paper which I love and will use on cards for special occasions like my niece's recent wedding.  Here's the wedding card that I made for the couple.

The card features several retired Stampin' Up! products such as the Floral Heart dies, At First Sight stamp set and the Love You Always foiled designer series paper. I did use the current Wanted To Say dies to create the 'Celebrate' sentiment on the front of the card. I also used dies from Snazzi Scrappin to cut & assemble the card base pieces quickly & easily instead of having to cut the design the old fashioned way.

As the couple were having a Wishing Well at their wedding, I created a pocket to hold the money inside the card. I also used the pocket as a place to write our message to the happy couple. 

I added their initials on the 'steps' inside the card to personalise it too.

So am I the only one keeping some paper for a special occasion?

Angela's PaperArts: Wedding survival kit

It's Spring here in Australia and that also means it's Wedding season.

Being a crafter certainly comes in handy when a wedding is being planned.  I made multiples of this Wedding Survival Kit for my niece's recent wedding.

I purchased these cute hessian bags and had all the other materials on hand, such as the Stampin' Up! Tailor Made Tag Dies to create all the tags for the kits.

What do you think I included in the kits? I'd love to know if you would have included some different items compared to what I included in the kits.
