Carousel Christmas card

I love this carousel card and it folds flat, well it's about 2cm thick when folded but you can put it in an envelope to send and to pack away for next year as it is one that will come out every year . 

There are five different sides and it was so easy to put together . 

Instead of cutting the back out in coloured card I cut it all in white and used a set of scrapbooking paper, all the same colour but different views.

I cut this card using a Cricut Air but it is sold in many different files for different machines cricut, scanncut, svg, studio.  It is another one from SVGHUT and I brought it Here

I am so pleased with this card it came together so well and so quickly.

Romany Caravan gift boxes

I  love giving small presents and vouchers in handmade gift boxes.  Vouchers/gift cards in with some chocolates in a small box seem so much nicer then just a voucher/gift card on its own.  Here are two lovely Christmas Romany caravan gift boxes that you can add some wrapped chocolate and a gift card or a small present. 

One in bright Christmas colours.  You can buy the  Ho Ho Ho Wagon gift box to print and make here

and there is one in softer Christmas colours, you can buy the Holiday Charm Wagon to print and make file here

I have also made the Violet Wagon to give to friends on their birthdays.

Happy crafting

Terrible weather

What terrible weather, deffinately not the weather to have a holiday.

Back to crafting.  I have not made a card for a couple of weeks but I will be back to normal soon.  I have a few to show you using my new dies and some toppers I have had for a few years.  Why I bought so many I don't know as I have hardly used any but they cannot stay unused.  

The topper is a Kanban one from a few years ago and she is matted onto the Spellbinders Lacey Squares die and the Poinsettia is also a Spellbinders set of dies.  I think the Poinsettia one is going to be well used this year.  The backing card is also from Kanban.

Another Kanban topper put behind a window die from Cottage Cutz.  The sentiment is also from Kanban and put ontop of a Spellbinders die and the flourish's are cut from a Marianne die.  I printed the card used to make the base last year and I think it was from a Crafter's Companion CD.

I have LOADS more toppers and I am determined to use them this year, well maybe not all of them but I will use a good number of them.  They make good quick cards especially with the dies I have.
