{Stamping Sunday Blog Hop Night Before Christmas}

Hi there crafters, my name is Ruth and welcome to another...

Each month a team of creative demonstrators bring some fab ideas based on a set  or theme of products.

This month we are looking at the Night Before Christmas suite.

I choose the papers to purchase and play with.

I decided to make 3 items following a similar format. 

Here is a simple box decorated with the papers and coordinating colour card. I used the Stitched Stars Dies and leaf punches to cut additional embellishments.

Here is a card, this time with some elements cut out from the papers.

Finally a little bag ready to put a gift in.

Here is a video tutorial of how I cut and assembled everything

{Stamping Sunday Blog Hop Memories and More}

What an honour! I was asked by Sarah Levin to be guest designer and take part in this fab blog hop.

Thank you for coming over to have a look at what I've created with the Petal Garden Memorie and More pack.  This little pack has lots of lovely prints and motifs that can easily be used for card making.  I cut out the roses and arranged them on a background of torn cards.

The card base is in Powder Pink measures 14.5cm x 14.5cm.

Here is a sped up video with some music.

The second project I was asked to make was a 3D one, I decided to make these tiny little boxes as I wanted to show off the little extra pieces you get in the kit.

Here is a video with the instructions

{Mixed Media scrapbook page with Memories and More Kit}

It had been a while since I had done some scrapbooking.  Since I have been playing with more mixed media techniques I had been itching to make a layout with the Memories and More pack called Petal Garden.  It has come lovely laser cut elements that I thought would work as a stencil.

I ended up creating this page on facebook live and then creating shorter videos to help show you the process.

Here is a short video with a voice over

Here is a longer video without a voice over

Here is the original

{Luxury 60th Birthday Card}

One of the lovely things about being a card maker is that when special people in your life have special birthdays you can pull out all the stop and make them something really lovely.

This was for a sweet friend of mine who I have known since I moved to Welshpool (20 years).  She loves creating too, so it had to be a good one!

I used one of my favourite colour combinations... pink and green. It always makes me smile.  Add a bit of gold glimmer and instant luxury.

Here is the full length video and a shorter sped up version of how I made it.

{Swap making - flowers and polkas}

Been trying to make a start ton some swaps for a Stampin' Up! event coming up in November.

I am totally in love with this colour combo and the Flourish Thinlets Die.  The die brush makes it so easy to extract the delicate die cuts from the metal dies.  Saves all the faffing I used to do with wax paper!

Here are some pics, and below is a video of me making a few.
