FLOWERS OF FRIENDSHIP WREATH EASEL CARD

 Hi stampers ! Merry Christmas to you ! This afternoon I created this cute wreath card which fits into a standard A5 envelope . I used the Flowers Of friendship bundle from the Annual catalogue . I began with a piece of Soft Succulent Card stock measuring 8 " x 6 " scored at 2" & 4 " .

This is the first sample I created and used a 6 "x 10 " piece of CS scored @ 2 1/2  "& 5 ".

You can see more details on either my Facebook page or You tube here . Thanks for looking .

BIRD HOUSE CARD

 Hi stamping friends . Yesterday afternoon I created some cute birdhouse cards for my Facebook Live . I cased the card sign from Chantal Herve . Such a clever design and oh so cute ! I love birdhouses !

For the first card I used the Birds & Branches stamp set & the matching Birds & More dies . 

For this next card I have used the Friendly Hello set from the upcoming SAB catalogue which goes live on January 4 th . Can't wait that long ? If you sign up to join my team you can order this set right now with a qualifying order of $180 before postage and you also receive the matching DSP . Demonstrators can not only buy product early but can also start earning SAB product with each qualifying demonstrator order . How cool is that !

My last sample was created using a background I hand stamped using the Sweet As A Peach stamp set . I used Pear Pizazz for all of these cards and my flowers were stamped using Mango Melody

IMPOSSIBLE BOX & A MATCHING CARD

 Hi stamping friends .

Last night I created an impossible box with a matching card . I got this idea firstly from Jan B and then found several different versions on Pinterest and I believe the original creator was Julie DiMatteo #paper pixie . The box is created from one single piece of card stock or designer series paper . When it is closed it appears as though it has a removable lid but it’s actually all one piece ! Pretty cool right ! 

 I also created the matching card using my Basic Borders dies and some products from the Eden’s Garden suite of products . If you love the DSP and gems you need to get them now because they are not going through to the new mini !

You can see how I made this in my video as well as some gorgeous Christmas cards I’ve received.

As promised in the video , here are the box sizes and measurements . I forgot to mention that when adding DSP to your box , if using card stock as the box , it doesn’t need to go the whole way up to the top - just have it as I have shown in the photo or your box will not open . See here
