Those Pesky Elves...

Another card re-make for this week's classes using the Santas Workshop papers instead of Signs of Santa stamping, colouring and die-cutting... as per this card here...

But before I start... & just in case you didn't get to visit me yesterday!... Don't forget that the Retiring List has been published and The Year End Closeout Sale is in full swing...click here for all the news released yesterday!

Simple & quick -  but so so cute!!

And here are the die-cut papers and stamped versions side by side...

Oh and greeting from Merry Christmas to All... on a standard A6 card...

And even more Signs of Santa...

A pocket card today... using the Santa's Workshop suite of products... stamps, dies and paper... 

Lovely bit of Stampin Blends colouring in on this card... even I enjoy this amount of colouring ! In Poppy Parade, Pool Party, Old Olive, Crumb Cake, Smoky Slate & Dark Daffodil Delight ... With Ivory and Light Calypso Coral for those chubby cheeks!

Finished off with Dazzling Diamonds glitter for the snow...

More Signs of Santa...

Merry Monday - Signs of Santa

Very quick share today... as I am busy finishing off the Tutorials for the Farmhouse Christmas meets Winter Woods projects... still hoping to finish today and get them emailed out to all of you that have purchased so far... Thank you...

So back to the Signs of Santa collection... 

Santa & signpost from Signs of Santa... greeting from Merry Christmas to All... on a standard A6 card...

The Masking Technique was used for this card...The 2 images being stamped onto Post It Notes (or equivalent!)... then fussy cut to create a mask... then these masks laid over the Memento Black stamped images on the card... and Pool Party ink lightly sponged over the top of the masks...

Just remember to include as much of the sticky part of the Post It note under the images you are going to cut out!

All finished off with lashings of Dazzling Diamonds glitter...

And some decoration on the inside too... 

Wednesday WOW! Santa Workshop Concertina Card

Always a favourite card format amongst my ladies... the Tag Topper Concertina Card... of which you will find 10 or so variants if you click here (or pop "Tag Topper Concertina" in the search box down the right hand side)... For just about every occasion!

And you will find the step by step tutorial here... as well as a link to Julie Kettlewell's video tutorial too...

A card that has caused a few Ooohs & Aaahs whilst on display... even amongst the non-Santa Workshop-believers! Though as always it is difficult to photo and share on line to the same effect...

It does show off the Santa Workshop papers rather well... and... not a Signs of Santa stamp was harmed in the making of this card!!! 

Though the Santa's Signpost dies came in rather useful... as they are the perfect size to die cut the images on the papers as well as the stamps!! Albeit I would be happy to fussy cut of an evening myself! As is my way!!

And of course our trusty Large Letter dies were invaluable (as always!)

Thank you Julie...again... for such a great card...

Very Bright & Merry Monday with Signs of Santa

Playing around with Signs of Santa bundle at Team Training...

Edited to Add- Inspirational Videos post back up tomorrow... my blog got ahead of itself! Sorry to my email subscribers for any convenience!

Do think these little elves are cute... and they are making me feel christmassy...

And I have to admit... that I think that this bundle and the Santa's Workshop suite will be one of the Top 3 sellers in the new Autumn Winter Catalogue... as they are either the immediate No. 1 favourite amongst most demos so far... OR one of those once-you-have-a-play... then you don't want to stop!

Particularly like the greeting stamped "around the corner" at the top right hand side....

Lovely bit of Stampin Blends colouring in on this card... even I enjoy this amount of colouring ! In Poppy Parade, Pool Party , Old Olive, Crumb Cake, Smoky Slate & Dark Daffodil Delight ... With Ivory and Light Calypso Coral for those chubby cheeks!

Finished off with Dazzling Diamonds glitter on the hats and parcels...

Few more details on this card here... thanks again Julie... so cute!
