Christmas Stocking

Polkadoodles has a One Day Special on Hochanda today and tomorrow (3 and 4 August) and it's all about Christmas!!

Here is one of the many samples I made and I've used papers from the Ho Ho Ho Christmas paper 6x6 pad and used my own stocking template.  I've added a dotted line of liquid pearls around the edges of the stocking and also the paper bow; the top of the stocking has been cut from felt.


The three little baubles are from my stash - I bought a few boxes of tree decorations last year from Primark as I knew they would come in handy for cardmaking and at £2 for 30 baubles it seemed daft not to!

I've made a cute stocking card using papers from Funky Hand which are no longer available.  I've added glitter around the edges plus a Sizzix tag.  The sentiment is a Tim Holtz die plus a Marianne Creatables snowflake with a wooden white snowflake layered on the top with a half pearl centre.


Good luck with the challenge!

Crimbo Crackers Challenge 35 - Shaped Cards

Time for another Crimbo Crackers challenge!  The theme this fortnight is:

Shaped Cards

And here is my sample.  I've used papers from the Winter Wonderland download from Funky Hand and my own template.  I've added a faux stitched line around the top of the stocking and the toe bit and also glitter glue around all edges - a boy does need a bit of bling!

The letters are cut with a Sizzix die - Girls are Weird alphabet and then onto a Sizzix scallop tag.  The snowflake is a Marianne Creatables die and I've cut it from some glitter card I found (along with the letters).  And finally I wound some tiny blue metallic star tinsel around the top - always buy stuff like that in the sales after Christmas as you can get it really cheap!  And I bought this last January sales too so its about time I used it!

Good luck with the challenge!  For more details and how to enter, pop over to Crimbo Crackers.

Christmas Stocking

Now what was you thinking with that title?!  Here is a card!! It's part of a Christmas card order and sometimes I just don't know what to make for kids especially when they are not really kids but young adults.  And male!  And this is one of a set of 4 for 4 brothers!

It's my own template and the papers are from Funky Hand - Stylish Tree download which is part of the Oh Come All Ye Crafters Christmas Collection.  There is also a wordbook download for those who like wordbooks (and I am one of them!) and if you buy the two collections together you get it for a reduced price!  So not only do you get some fab papers, a full alphabet wordbook collection, you also get to save money to spend on more stash!  And the paper download on its own is only £2.49!

The tag is a Sizzix tag with Sizzix Girls are Weird letters which have been glittered somewhat plus a layered Marianne Createables snowflake die to hold it in place.

I've glittered around the edge of the card with some trusty deep red glitter glue and added some card candy here and there.

Crafty Sentiments:  Christmas
LEJ Designs:  Seasons Greetings
Cards For Men:  Anything Goes
Crafty Cardmakers:  More Than 1 Punch or Die Cut
