making boxes.....

lots of my cards are just that bit too deep to go in an envelope so I have been making a couple of boxes....

this one is a 6x6 box made using the crafters companion double sided die....and then I got carried away and made this lovely little trinket box....

so as you can see I have been having lots of fun crafting....

christmas card week 3......

out with my fun Tim Holtz snowman again.....

I cut him out of glitter card this time and remembered to put double sided adhesive on before I die cut...how much easier that was when it came to assembling all the pieces....the backing paper is LOTV....the sentiment is crafters companion...the trees are marianne designs and the snowflakes various brand...I cut them out when I have left over bits of card and keep them in a handy pot....
thanks for popping by today I hope my snowman made you smile.

christmas card club challenge 2....Holly and or Ivy

I am doing a bit of recycling for this weeks challenge....a lovely christmas card image I just could not throw away.....so with some die cut additions it is repurposed......

lots of my friends know that I have 3 hedgehogs that I feed all through the season and although they are hibernating at this time of the year they seem to have featured on a lot of my christmas and birthday cards this year....
I have just done some matting a layering...added a tattered lace holly frame....and a tattered lace poinsettia and holly corner.....and the sentiment is a very old marianne designs die....and a few Nuvo drops....
