Delicate all white die cutting for a wedding card


Brrrrr! Winter is definitely here in mid-Wales, we had a very cold snap the other week, with a delicate frosting of snow.

Here is a seasonally apt card all in white.  I had seen cards like this on Pinterest and wanted to have a go myself.  


It's a pop up card with a wreath of detailed leaves, all made possible by the wonder of the die cutting machine.  I love how these modern tools make it so easy to create such delightful effects.

Here are some closeups.


I used Glimmer paper to create the butterflies and daisies.



To see how I created the card have a look at this video

Stamping Sunday Blog Hop - Holiday Happenings


Hi there and thank you so much for popping to my blog today.  So dare I ask, how are you Holiday plans going? In the UK as we don't have Thanksgiving, my focus is more on Christmas.  The opportunity to get some holiday crafting done is very welcome.  I recently purchased a very large quantity of large brown paper bags.  I thought I could use them for customer orders AND for eco friendly gift wrapping for Christmas and Birthdays.



I love creating a pretty tag, and had so much fun creating these faux wood circle labels.

I used the Tree Rings dies (159888) with the embossing folder. But! before you rush and cut and emboss your tree rings, you need to do some stamping. Before that you also need to use the die with all the rings to draw the position of them, then stamp your images before cutting and embossing.  I love how the die is designed to sit inside the embossing folder.


The stamps used were from the Ringed with Nature set, which can be purchased with the dies and embossing folder for a 10% discount (159889)

The ink colours used where Pool Party, Balmy Blue and Real Red, and Crumb Cake card stock.


Thank you so much for poppin by, please take a look at the other hoppers work here


To see how I stamped these take a look at this video here...

Christmas Stampathon October 2022 - Birds and Branches

Hi there, thank you for popping in.

Today I am so pleased to present my box in a card.  I'll explain some of the background.  For this months Christmas Stampathon challenge, the theme was
Birds and Branches
and to make 4 or more cards.

Head to the Facebook group {here} to take part

I had these lovely Open Leaf trinkets from the Mini catalogue and had been desperate to make some earrings using them.


I also had some bird charms that worked well with them.  I needed to make something to house them and be a card, so I spent a couple of hours figuring out some measurements and came up with these...


I decorated the front "card" with a die cut from the Aspen Tree Dies cut from some Rose Gold speciality paper.


The card stands as normal, but, it also has a surprise cavity on the inside



It has plenty of space for long earrings



Here is the video of how to make this

and here is a template showing how to create the box section

The dashed lines are the score lines, the solid lines are the cut lines
