Memories & More Christmas Treeline

Here's another card that features one of the cards from the Memories & More Merry Little Christmas pack which is so great for putting together a quick and easy Christmas card!

The cards from the Memories & More packs can be dressed up in so many different ways!

In its natural state, the card is white with the black trees printed on it. 

I simply sponged over it with Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie and Elegant Inks, having first masked a circle for a full moon.

Once my sponging was complete, I removed the circular mask and lightly sponged a little more Elegant Eggplant ink so that the moon was a little less stark white.

I then stamped the sleigh and greeting with Archival Black ink and sponged a little black ink around the top of the card, concentrating on the top corners.

The card layers are Basic Black, Crushed Curry and Silver Foil Sheet.

I added some Basic Black Shimmer Ribbon and a couple of Silver Foil Sheet elements cut with one of the Pretty Pines dies and finished with a Clear Faceted Gem.

Thank you for visiting.
'Til next time!

Memories & More Merry Little Christmas

I had fun using up all sorts of leftovers that were sitting on my desk so this card had quite a mix of things thrown at it!

A busy but cheerful Christmas Card featuring the Memories & More Merry Little Christmas pack

The base card is Cherry Cobbler followed by an edge of Gold Foil Sheet (I always take the middle out to use later!).  The next layer is one of the cards from the Memories & More Merry Little Christmas pack which I trimmed down just a tad.  

I'm having a giggle as I sit here writing because, looking at the photo, I've realised that I forgot to mount the striped card (also from the pack) onto the piece of Gold Foil Sheet that I cut for it!

Thank you for visiting.
'Til next time (when, hopefully, I'll be more organised!)

Merry Little Christmas Ornament - Sneak Peek

Another in my series of super quick and easy Christmas cards using the Memories & More Card Pack - Merry Little Christmas.

Merry Little Christmas Memories & More Card Packs are fantastic for quick, easy Xmas cards!

The base card is Cherry Cobbler.  To that I added one of the cards with an Old Olive pattern, trimmed to size and with lengths of Old Olive ribbon adhered top and bottom.  

I placed the acetate sheet with the silver decoration on top of one of the smaller cards, using glue dots in the corners to keep them together.  I then lined up the stripes and adhered the piece to the front of the card with Stampin' Dimensionals.

I placed one of the stickers (Merry) under the bauble and silver stars cover up the glue dots in three of the corners.  I placed an Old Olive bow in the top corner from which dangles one of the gorgeous new Year of Cheer Embellishments.  I attached it with a length of Silver Metallic Thread but a glue dot would do the trick!

All finished in a matter of minutes with minimal supplies and equipment!

Merry Little Silent Christmas - Sneak Peek

This is another super-quick and easy card that I made with the Memories & More Merry Little Christmas card pack.

Memories & More card packs are not just for memory keeping!

I layered the acetate sheet with the silver snowflakes onto a piece of Pacific Point cardstock, positioned the Silent Night card and stuck it down with silver washi tape from the Year of Cheer Specialty Washi Tape pack.

Then I simply adhered that to the front of the Basic Black card and added some Rhinestones.

Thank you for visiting.

Holiday Catalogue Sneak Peek - Merry Little Christmas card stack

I really enjoy card making: learning new techniques, perfecting older ones and taking as much time as necessary to do it.  Somehow I find myself loaded up with the patience that I don't seem to be able to summon in other aspects of my life!

BUT ... occasionally time is not on my side and I just need to make some cards quickly and easily.  Enter the Memories & More Card Pack called Merry Little Christmas!  I haven't yet developed a taste for memory keeping but this card pack is also great for card-makers.

These four cards basically assembled themselves in a matter of minutes!  They're simple, require minimal equipment but are still imbued with the Christmas spirit!

Memories & More card packs are great for making quick & easy cards

 

The large sentiment is from the new Snowflake Sentiments stamp set in the 2017 Holiday Catalogue (available from 1 September) and the small one is from the Holly Berry Happiness stamp set in the Annual Catalogue (available now).

I trimmed the decorative cards to size, stamped a greeting with Cherry Cobbler ink, layered them onto a piece of cardstock and adhered them to the card fronts.

Thank you for visiting.
