I'd like to wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
This card features the elegant Stampin' Up! Angels of Peace stamp set, gold foil and gold embossing.
I'll be taking a break over the Christmas/New Year period, but my online store is open 24/7 if you need Stampin' Up! crafting supplies over the holiday period.

This card features the gorgeous Stampin' Up! Poinsettia dies along with the sadly retiring Christmas to Remember stamp set and Whimsy & Wonder Designer Series Paper.
The front of the card isn't the full width of the card base as this allows for the inside panel to show when the card is closed.
To get the two colours onto the one sentiment stamp, I firstly inked up the stamp in Misty Moonlight ink, wiped off the ink from 'Christmas' and used my Polished Pink Stampin' Write marker to add ink onto this word before stamping it onto the inside of the card.

At this time of the year, we're often looking for gift tags to add onto wrapped gifts.
This tag features the Stampin' Up! Delicate Baubles dies. I also used the Metallic Mesh ribbon to attach the tag onto the gift bag.
There was plenty of room on the back of the tag to write my message to the recipient.

It's that time of the year when we find ourselves needing little gift treats to hand out to family & friends. I used the Stampin' Up! Pretty Pillow Box dies set to create these treats which were filled with various chocolates.
This landscape version of the Pretty Pillow Box has the pillow box curved ends glued closed and the centre flap is tucked under the embellishments (which were also in the die set).
This portrait version has the centre flap glued closed and the ends are able to opened like a traditional pillow box. I decorated it using a tree from the Christmas Trees dies upon which I had sponged some darker ink to give it some shading & dimension.
The products used on these projects are currently available and can be purchased from my online store if you live in Australia.

Today's Z fold Christmas card features the 'Merry & Bright' bauble from the Stampin' Up! Delicate Baubles dies set and I've also used Gilded Leafing to fill in the background of the bauble.
To complete the card, I used the Simply Elegant Designer Series Paper and a border die from the Basic Borders die set to keep with the gold, white & Cherry Cobbler colour scheme.

I have been enjoying using the Stampin' Up! Expressions in Ink Designer Series Paper. These are just some of my recent 'thank you' cards made with this paper that I've recently sent to those who placed orders.
I love the touches of gold in the paper and I also used the Expressions in Ink Ephemera Pack for the gold leaves. The centre focal piece was created using the Ornate Layers dies and Ornate Thanks stamp set.
Here's a closer look at the card.

A couple of months ago I made a few wallet cards for birthdays and I needed one for another birthday recent. This time I used the card design by friend Heidi Bell (thanks Heidi!) where the front of the card base is simply scored and folded inside to the hold the money.
I embellished the card to suit the recipient by using the Expressions in Ink Designer Series Paper, a sentiment from the Biggest Wish stamp set and also added stars from the Stitched Stars die set. You could easily use this style of card for any occasion, including a Christmas card wallet.
Here's the inside of the card.
