Simple Sunday Snowman card

 

Or should I call this... Want to build a snowman?

I love this card... though it is probably one of the quickest ones I have put together this year!

Put together being the operative wording... as all the parts were leftovers from other projects that just magically went together... as you do...

Quite  lot of products used though... Farmhouse Christmas bare tree, Rooted in Nature fir tree duo, Santa's Workshop papers snowman and elf... and greeting and snowflakes from Snow is Glistening (which was only available in November)

Spot that the last 2 photos are of an even more simple version...no snowflakes in the air! Though I think they are necessary bearing in mind the Snow is Glistening greeting!

Santa's Workshop #3 & Finale for Merry Monday !

The last of the large Santas Workshop Memories and More cards...

With a couple more small ones for those of you that were looking carefully!

Yes I couldn't resist chopping up one of the larger cards... so bringing my card total to 23 in total... 12 small and 11 large...

Though of course my ladies ended up with 20 as they only got half of those speciality ones from their half pack...

But thinking on for next year... armed with a full pack...

This format can so easily be a 40 cards class!! Just perfect for Christmas!

Embellishment just using the stickers in the M&M card pack... Dazzling Diamonds glitter, Red Rhinestone Jewels (discounted in the Year End CloseOut Sale... so stock up for christmas berries & baubles next year! I certainly am!) and stripy Thick Garden Green & White Bakers Twine...

Simple on Sunday - Santa's Workshop Memories & More cards

So the 10 small cards were shared yesterday...  So today it is time for some of the large cards...

First up are the 6 Speciality cards in the pack... which are all lovely and glittery...

The ladies had half a pack of the Memories & More cards  (now out of stock unfortunately!)...so they had an either/or choice...Hopefully self explanatory with these photos...

But this one was the revered one!! I thought we were going to have an auction - or a game of Pit - mid class!

Embellishment just using the stickers in the M&M card pack... Dazzling Diamonds glitter, Red Rhinestone Jewels (discounted in the Year End CloseOut Sale... so stock up for christmas berries & baubles next year! I certainly am!) and stripy Thick Garden Green & White Bakers Twine...

Saturday Memories & More Santa's Workshop cards #1

So I finally succumbed... and did a Memories & More Santa's Workshop card class that have been all the rage this year! So here are a few different versions for you...

I just have the 10 small cards to share with you today...

So much so "all the rage" ... that the M&M card packs have completely run out of stock in Europe (& pretty much worldwide I believe)...

Though you can still buy the Red Cards & Envelopes packs...which are great value if you haven't spotted them!

They may be simple... and so easy to put together... but such fun...

And I still got 20 cards even thought I only used half the pack of cards!

And just adding embellishment using the stickers in the M&M card pack... Dazzling Diamonds glitter,

Red Rhinestone Jewels (discounted in the Year End CloseOut Sale... so stock up for christmas berries & baubles next year! I certainly am!)

and stripy Thick Garden Green & White Bakers Twine...

But just one regret... I didn't buy the co-ordinating Enamel Shapes... I think they were out of stock at the time... what a shame!

And 2 versions of this last card... as I started off adding Dazzling Diamonds glitter to make a glittery yellow bow( as shown below)... but then thought what the heck... and grabbed the gold glitter instead... 

And its funny... I prefer the gold bow in the flesh... but I prefer the yellow bow version from these photos!!

Santa's Workshop Mr & Mrs card #2...

Probably can't get much simpler than this!

Remake of this Mr & Mrs Santa card I made earlier... just replacing stamped and coloured Signs of Santa images with ones die-cut straight from the Santa's Workshop papers using the Santas Signpost dies... simples! And SO quick!

Main greeting from Merry Christmas To All... and North Pole in the Signs of Santa set...
