It's getting to that time of year......

Yep, you've guess it, Christmas!!  Apart from having a couple of important birthday's to think about, it's also Christmas Card time!!!  I decided to make a start a week or so ago, and I've made 5 so far (better get my skates on!!).

I absolutely love the Ornament Keepsakes Stamps on Page 3 of the Autumn Winter Catalogue.  They look lovely as flat images, but fabulous as three dimensional baubles too.

I've used a pre-made card, and the Festival of Prints Designer Series Paper Stack that is on Page 20 of the Autumn Winter Catalogue.  I love this paper stack and will definitely be ordering another paper pad before the catalogue goes off sale at the end of January 2013.  There are 48 sheets of double sided paper that co-ordinate perfectly.

To make the baubles, I stamped them three times and cut them out using the corresponding framelits dies.  If you buy the Ornament Keepsake Bundle, which consists of the stamps and the framelits, than  you save 15% off the price of buying them individually!  This is a great buy!!  I then folded them down the middle using my Simply Score board and then glued them all together.

As you can see from this picture, the 3D effect is fantastic, and they fold flat to go into envelopes!!

I have made the Christmas Ornament on the front of the Autumn Winter Catalogue, but I'm just waiting for a few supplies to arrive to finish it off.  As soon as it's finished, I'll blog it for you!
