Hey everyone, Michelle here today sharing a new layout using the Merry Little Christmas collection and a cut file from Paige Evans. I snapped this photo of my daughter and her best friend a few years ago. They were just so pretty with their pink cheeks from the cold air.

I started off by stitching some of the snowflakes on the cut file. I also used a snowflake punch to add more on my layout.

I added some ephemera and sayings in addition to my title. I love to layer on my layouts.

I love how bold the red background is with the white cut file and embellishments!

Thank for stopping by!

Last minute Christmas cards

Hello friends, it’s Lucile! Today I find you for make Christmas cards! It’s Christmas soon and you still haven’t made your Christmas cards? I’ll show you how to quickly make cards to give to your family or friends.

To make these cards you will need some scraps of paper and embellishments. The first step is to create a frame to define the outline of the card.

For the first card, I cut a project life card in pink tones. I pasted it in the center of the card. I added golden puffy words to dress up the card.

Finally, I added embellishments to finish decorating the card. I glued some elements with 3D foam squares to add volume.

For the second card, I use the same technique. I cut a project life card in blue tones.

Finally, I created a Christmas village decor with embellishments from the collection.

I hope you like these quick and easy to create cards. I wish you a happy new year. See you soon, Lucile.

Oversized Ornament Tags

Well hello friends, it’s Wendy Sue here today, sharing a quick and easy last-minute Christmas craft! When my kids were little, I started making oversized tags to designate stockings so dear old Santa didn’t get confused when he tiptoed into our family room during the night. I thought it might help him out if he could locate the stocking (with each child’s name), then place the stocking next to the gifts for that child. I think Santa appreciated my help, because it can sure get confusing for an old guy to keep everyone straight! 😉 Here’s a peek at the tags I made for old St. Nick this year:

I just love the Merry Little Christmas collection and knew I wanted to use it for the tags this year. Each tag is about 5″ in size – so large enough to be easy to see, but small enough that I could fit all four on one sheet of paper – win/win. Here’s a quick step-by-step photo set to show you how I made these!

First, here are the pieces. An ornament shape (about 5″), a coordinating circle, slightly smaller, a banner, the child’s name (I cut mine with my Silhouette from white cardstock, but you could also use letter stickers!), and anything you might want to use for embellishment – I chose a printed die-cut, and some gold holly berries and leaves (thickers) :

Start with the ornament shape:

Add the slightly smaller circle:

Now add the banner shape – I used foam squares to attach my banner because I love the little bit of dimension it adds:

Now is the time to add the name over the banner:

Add embellishments now! Start with the coordinating printed die-cut:

Complete the tag by adding a bit of shimmer! These gold puffy holly berries and leaves are perfect:

December Mini Album

Hello Pebbles friends! Marcia here today with a mini album I created to document my December. I don’t do December daily albums, but like a more scaled back approach. It allows me to document my life without the pressure of having to come up with something new every single day!

My mini album is approximately 5″x7″ and created in much the same way as my previous travel journals. This one however has a pretty gold ribbon to tie it shut. Here is a closer look at my cover…

The Merry Little Christmas collection has so many fabulous embellishments; ephemera die cuts, stickers, thickers … plus the most festive pattern papers. Inside I altered photo mats with 3″x4″ journal cards.

I love the look of transparent pages embellished with digital cut files. This FaLaLa tree is available at JustNick Studios.

I love the gingerbread ephemera and stickers in this collection. On these pages, I added a cut file gingerbread house border from Paige Taylor Evans that is available in the Silhouette store.

Here is a second transparent page, this time with a wreath cut from 3 different green cardstock shades. This cut file is available from JustNick Studios as well. You can also see snowflake flourishes on the previous page. The snowflake cut file is available in the Silhouette store.

The wreath will eventually frame the photo I add on the wintery page following.

Here is the back cover… I was having so much fun, I couldn’t help but decorate the back cover too. The Joy card is another JustNick Studio digital cut file.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a great December. Maybe you would like to try to make a December mini album to document your special days too.

Supplies:
Merry Little Christmas 12×12 paper pad
Merry Little Christmas Die Cut Ephemera
Merry Little Christmas Stickers
Merry Little Christmas Mini Stickers

Merry Little Christmas Phrase Thickers
Jen Hadfield Banner Punch Board
Sticky Thumb adhesive

Hello everyone! It’s Eva on the blog today, sharing a quick tutorial on how to create quick and easy mini cards during this holiday season.

This cards are very easy to create and they are perfect to accompany a gift or to give to your guests during christmas dinner.

To create them, start by layering strips of washi tape on a 2,5 inch square card.

Fill the entire card and trim the excess. You can do this with strips of patterned paper too but washi tape is great if you are making them in bulk!

Next, decorate the front of the card with a die cut. I used 3d foam dots to glue the die cut and I love the look!

The final touch is to add a tag on the side of the card. These stickers are perfect because you only need a package for all your cards. You can glue the sticker on some cardstock or put some baby powder on the back to remove the sticky part.

Using your Crop a Dile, make a small hole on top and tie the tag with some red twine.

Create some envelopes with the Mini Envelope Punch Board and the lovely papers from the Merry Little Christmas line.
