Hello Coffee and Crafty Friends,

Today I made the last card for this year for the

Caffinated Christmas Card Challenge..

I was inspired combining Tim Holtz dies and thinlits after

seeing his Sizzix Holiday Remix last Saturday. You can see

the rewind HERE.

This is the coffee and snowman card I came up with:

So here is the litst of the materials I used:

Fresh Brewed Bigz Die (for the cup)

Christmas Cutouts (for the sentiment)

Snowman Papercut Christmas

Holiday Greens mini (greens on top of the cup)

Design paper from my stash.

And for the inside I stamped a sentiment from the

set Bold Tidings - mini.

Thanks for looking and

caffinated crafty greetings,

Postcodeloterij Christmas cards

 

Hello Crafty Friends,

December is here and a festive month.

 So here are some Christmascards. I made them with wrapping material.

I got these ceremic Dutch Houses (with a tea light inside) from

the Postcodeloterij (that is a Dutch Lottery). These houses came in 

boxes with the house printed on the outside. So I cut these out and used them

to make cards. Here are a few samples:

Here you see the box and the first two cards.

Card #1

Just an easy card to start. Design paper in the background,

ribbon around the cut out Dutch house and finished.

Card #2

Design paper in the background (Action)

and the stars are cut out with thinlits.

The sentiment is a stamp by Tim Holtz.

Card #3

Design paper in the background and the tree was insired

after seeing the Tim Holtz Holiday Hoopla last week.

You can see it HERE too.

The tree is from the set Bottlebush Trees CMS455.

The Dutch sentiment says: Happy Holidays.

Card #4

This card is also a little inspired by Tim's Holiday Hoopla.

Background design paper and snowman is from Tim's

Sizzix set Papercut Christmas 2 and the circle is 

from the set Vintage Labels.

Here the Dutch sentiment says Happy Holidays and 

Happy New Year.

Card #5

Now I came up with an easel card fully decorated with a

star background (stencil), more bottlebush trees

and cute hand cut gingerbread men. The stamped 

santa head is from my stash.

This is how the card looks sideways.

Now I have tree houses left to use for more cards.

Hope to see you soon again!

Thank you for looking

and have a wonderful crafty day.
