O' Christmas Tree


Have you got all of your Christmas cards made now?
I think this image of the little girl looking at the tree is
my favourite image this year from the paper pads.

I have a feeling my little girl will be getting this
as she loves to lie on the floor all wrapped up in a blanket
watching the tree for ages! She says it's magical! Aww bless her.

Bless we went to see Santa last night, Isabella went so quiet! It's a first lol!
It's such a busy time of year as it's her birthday Christmas Eve too.
We try every year to be organised........... Mmm yeah! lol!

Happy crafting everyone! Havea great day.

Winter Wonderland


Printed papers and card fronts from the paper pads make for
super EZ last minute Christmas cards!

I have layered a 6" x 6" paper piece and a card front ontop of each other
with white card. Added a few flowers, trees and a sentiment!
As I have a stash of flowers I made with the new molds this card took me
20 mins tops to make! And of course I glitterd the snowy areas on the card too! 
Lol you know I love my glitter!!! 

I am planning on making a stash of these trees from the Snow Kissed collection
ready for next Christmas! I love having ready made embelishments
you can just pick from! Bit like having a sweetie shop in the craft room!

Have lots of crafty fun everyone!

Deck the Halls!


A quick post from me today!

The hardest and longest part of making this card was choosing my papers! lol!
Although it was pretty easy as they all come from the Winter's Eve paper pad
and are deigned to go together!!!!!

I am loving playing with pinks and blues for Christmas!

I just wanted to thank you all for your support after my FB live yesterday!
Wow just shows anything can happen!
I am pleased to say my daughter is ok and alls well.
Thank you for all your love and understanding, it wasn't quite how I planned!

Happy crafting everyone!

EZ Christmas cards & Flowers!



Christmas is getting closer! Wow it's not far now!
Have you got all your cards made? Shh I haven't but I am working on them!
Join me  LIVE over on the Heartfelt Creations Facebook page HERE
as I show you some quick and EZ ideas for your cards that you can make in 30 mins or less!
Even faster if you make all your flowers first!


The card fronts from the Paper Pad collections make
it so easy to make these quick cards!


Here is a quick tutorial showing you how I made my flowers 
with the new Poinsttia Flower shaping mold. 
WOW I love this tool! 
 Have fun! 


Step 1: Stamp the Poinsettia & Holly Cluster stamps. 
TOP TIP: Stamp them all on one sheet so they can be die cut in one pass. 
A great time saver! Plus if you have a large arcrylic block
you can stamp both the flowers at once and then th leaves at once too!


Step 2: Die cut the flowers and leaves using the Poinsettia & Holly Cluster Die.
TOP TIP: Run them all through at once as they are stamped on one sheet!
Place them into the mold, lightly spritz and then run through your die cutting machine.



Step 3: Tip the all of flowers and leaves out of the mold.


And then press the centres down with a flower shaping tool and glue two flowers
 together and place ontop of a holly leaf. 


TOP TIP: Add a dab of glue to the holly centre, place a flower on andadd another dab of glue to
the flower cenrte and then place the top flower on nd then press down in the centre. Its a time saver!


Step 4: Adhere prills to the flower centres.
You could also use stamens, if so use the piercing mat and tool from the 
Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit to make a hole and add your stamen of choice.


Step 5: Using a sponge dab glue on the edges of the petals and cover with
Frosting Powder for a super effect!


WOW I made this many flowers in just two hours!
Such an EZ way to make flowers ready for your Christmas projects!

Here is what I used on these projects:

Because I Care.


Talk about getting ahead in my cardmaking!
This is for my anniversary next year! lol in August!!!
I was so inspired by Ellen Millers card that I just had to have a go.
Here is Ellen's card below click HERE to see how she made it.

You know I LOVE my shaped cards!
This would make a fabulous Valentines, wedding card or even wedding stationary!
With a photo in it sure makes for a piece of home decor as well!

I used the Heartfelt Love collection to make my card, you can find it HERE
Happ crafting everyone!
