Mintay Chocolate Bar Reveal Boxes

Hi Everyone!

Back today with these cute Chocolate Bar Reveal Boxes that I made using three of Mintay's Christmas collections - Merry and Joy, Christmas Blessings and Time of Wonder.

They are so easy to make, use only scraps of paper, and are ideal for place settings, hanging on a tree, an alternative to a card, or simply little gift ideas.

I've created a little video to show you how I made them and how quick they are to put together.

Hope you like them!

Graphic 45 Christmas Collage Home Decor Frame

 Hi All!

If you are looking for an easy way to make some last minute Christmas Home Decor, this collage frame is so effective.

I've used scraps of papers, stickers, borders and die cuts to create this effective Christmas Frame layout using Graphic 45's Warm Wishes and A Christmas Carol collections.

Hope you like it!

I've made a little video on my Youtube channel, explaining how to make one yourself.

Trio of Graphic 45 Christmas Cards using the Warm Wishes collection.


I'm back today with a little Christmas Card inspiration using Graphic 45's beautiful Warm Wishes collection. 

These papers are themed in traditional Christmas colours of reds, greens and golds, layered on a black background which really makes the images pop.

I've made one simple 6x6 card and two fold back cards adding plenty of fussy cutting images and layering up the papers and elements to create this look.

Hope you like them!

I've made a short video to explain these cards in more detail on my Youtube channel.

I'm back today with some Bauble Gift Boxes that I made.

I saw the original idea on Stamping with Amore's channel, and have tweaked it to make it my own.

Using Mintay Papers from the Merry and Joy collection, these little gift boxes make great tree hangers, table place settings or alternatives to crackers.

I've made a detailed video showing you how to make them. Hope you like them!

Vintage Christmas Cards using Tim Holtz Ideaology Products

Hi Everyone

I just thought I'd pop on and share some Christmas cards that I've made using a little crafty haul that I recently treated myself to.

I bought myself some new Tim Holtz Ideaology products from Buddly Crafts and Art from the Heart in the UK, both of which I can definitely recommend.

With my goodies I made these three cards and had fun making myself a collaged background and frames. I added some embossing and Gilding Wax and then layered on my paper dolls, ephemera and sentiments.

I made a little video explaining the process and products and would love it if you could pop over and have a look!


Hope you like them and your own Christmas crafting is going well!

Graphic 45 Nature's Sketchbook Mini Tag Album

 Afternoon Everyone!

I just thought I'd share a little project that I made using one Graphic 45's Square Tags, and some of their lovely Nature's Sketchbook papers.

I really enjoyed decorating this and adding a little concertina element to make it into a dinky mini album.

I've added a video showing how I made it with measurements in the video comments.



Hope you like it!
