WINTER CREATURES LANTERN

Hello, my crafty friends!

Are you all busy getting ready for Christmas? 

I am still working on Christmas decorations for the house and I especially love the lanterns. There are many different ones, I went for the 

WINTER CREATURES LANTERN.

all cut

You can find a short video on how to assemble the lantern here. I used some transparent sheets as inserts and added some rhinestones.

Did you notice the fine details?

Nicolas´ Boot

Hello digital friends!

On December 6th we celebrate St. Nicolas´ Day. Children place their boots outside the house in hope Nicolas will fill them with sweets and nuts. Some parents fill real boots, others use plastic or paper ones. I chose "Santa´s Boot Box" from Suzanne´s digital collection. The file includes a mistletoe, which I didn´t cut.

On the mat

White and red were the colors of my choice.

Once cut you can start by folding all perforated score lines upwards on the boot box. Next, you apply adhesive to all the tabs. If you start by folding the large boot back flap in place the construction will be more obvious. (I have done serverak boots and it doesn´t really matter where you start, you always end up with the boot :-)

I decided to emboss the sides (snowflakes) and the fur (dots). 

To give it a shimmery look I attached some rhinestones. 

Fill with chocolate and nuts.

Happy cutting!

Christmas Star Hanging Ornament Box

Hello everybody!

Christmas is approaching rapidly and you all are probably already busy with preparations. I am so in love with the hanging ornament boxes because you can use them for decoration on the Christmas tree or in a window. But you can also give them to friends as a little present.

There are many different ornaments you can choose from, I went for the 

CHRISTMAS STAR HANGING ORNAMENT BOX.

On the mat

all cut

To add some extra glimmer to the star I decided on gilding it. I chose 

BURNISHED SILVER

and

ACANTHUS TEAL.

Isn´t it amazing how the Gilding Powders add this unique shimmering look to the project? 

When all is done it´s time to assemble the box. You can find a video tutorial here.

Thanks for stopping by today! Have a great day!

Kitty with Moon

Boooo! 

Hello, my friends!

Halloween is approaching rapidly and I was in need of some decoration. The Kitty with Moon is an easy and fast project and looks good in a window or, as in my case, on the front door.

Open the file "Kitty with Moon" and ungroup the elements.

Once you have cut the elements you can put them all together.

I love the fine details of the cat and the bats.

When all is done you simply have to decide where to put your decoration. I thought it would look good in a window, but my son wanted to put it on the front door - so that´s where it is now.

Happy Halloween!

Maple Tree - Four Seasons

Hello, crafting friends!

Fall has arrived. The leaves are turning red and yellow. I love this time of the year when every tree and every leaf is bright and colorful. The Maple Tree digital cutting file fits just perfectly for the season. The file can be adapted to any season though, as you also get snowflakes. 

Once you have cut all the elements it´s time to assemble them. Make sure you cut many leaves, you will need a lot to cover the whole tree.

I love the extra elements that come with the file (swing and bird).

I added some butterflies using the QFD Butterflies and Stars Sprays Metal Cutting Dies.

Cut the butterflies, take the "negative" and put it onto the card.

Then take the cut butterflies and put them back into the negative (use glue).

When finished you can take the negative off. The butterfly spray now sticks to the card. Add rhinestones if wanted.

Have a happy and COLOURFUL fall!
