Santa's Sacks

I couldn't wait to show you these......

something I don't think I've tried before,

plus using some of my pre-order from the new Seasonal Catalogue,

due out on 5th September, and full of lush new stuff!

(Just message me if you'd like your own paper copy)

These fun canvas gift bags are so versatile and useful for small gifts/cards/money/sweets etc

I used Mistletoe Season with Archival black ink to stamp this image.

I actually used my Stamparatus so that I could go over the image.

I wasn't sure it would work with anything but card, but as you can see it worked perfectly.

I used a magnet to hold in place, but also because I was able to butt it up into the corner

I was able to stamp the image a few times over.

Canvas doesn't take the ink as well as card, so don't expect the same crisp image.

I wanted to use the new sparkly gorgeous Black Glittered Organdy Ribbon,

and some embellishments from last year, plus some Rhinestones 

Above shows them on my display in the CraftRoom.

I am holding some all day Classes next month, so let me know if you'd like to join us.

Signs of Santa is a brand new Bundle, and oh my goodness it is cuteness overload.

There are loads of fun images from the "North Pole", plus coordinating products such as

Flocked Speciality Designer Series Paper and Dies that even cut the images on the paper!

I used Washi Tape to mask off some stripes, and then with Poppy Parade red ink and a Sponge Brayer,

inked the stripes ((  I went over the edge of the last one :(  )), and stamped the "Seal".

I have already had lots of fun with these, but I fancy there could be lots more fun to be had yet! 

I hope you are having a good weekend,

thanks for stopping by, and see you again soon

July Rudolph Day

click on the link above for more info....

Join the Challenge to post your christmas makes this month,

This set Mistletoe Season caught my eye in the Annual Catalogue.

I do love mistletoe, and I do love versatility, and this has it all.

Some lovely images, great sentiments, and the option to fussy cut,

or leave as simple one layer cards, great for posting at an expensive time of year!

I added Pearls and some of the Under The Mistletoe Designer Series Paper

Here I stamped a double layer, added some fronds, a Rhinestone, and fussy cut a bow

This one was some swags or branches, plus a fussy cut bow, and some punched bells,

"winked" with gold and clear .

The "jingle bells " coordinate with the 1/2" Circle Punch.......

we all know how hard it is to cut a circle!

Here's some close up's on the details

Granny Apple Green, Old Olive, Shaded Spruce provide the greens,

reds are Cherry Cobbler and Poppy Parade.

Happy Rudolph Day
