Keeping Christmas Inspiration Hop

Welcome to the Keeping Christmas Inspiration Hop!  If you are looking for some inspiration for Christmas projects, you have come to the right place.  Our team does a monthly Keeping Christmas Inspiration Hop! We will be sharing Christmas creations on the 25th of each month.

The whole idea is to have some Christmas cards and projects in our stash all ready to go for December 2019!

I decided to make some gift tags this month ... you can never have too many, right?  The snowmen are from Avery Elle's Snow Fun stamp set.  I colored the snowmen with copics and diecut them using the coordinating dies. I used the Square Window Tag Confetti Cuts from Reverse Confetti to make shaker tags!     I diecut the tags from white cardstock and adhered colorful pink, green, and blue paper to the back of the tags.  I assembled the shakers and then adhered the snowmen to the front of the tags.  I added a diecut snowflake and then placed a small pearl in the center of each flake.  I added some white ribbon, gold cording, and a gold jingle bell to finish my tags.    

Be sure to hop along to visit each of the blogs.  There's tons of inspiration and ideas to get your creative juices flowing!

Snow Much Fun

Good morning!  Today I'm sharing a winter card featuring an adorable stamp set from Avery Elle.

I'm a sucker for snowmen stamps and as soon as I saw these in my local shop I knew I had to have them!  These cute little snowmen are from the Snow Fun  stamp set.  I colored the images with copics and used my ScanNCut to diecut them.  I used a piece of Lawn Fawn paper for the background and I used a Lawn Fawn die to cut the snowy hills.  I sponged distress inks on the tops of the hills and adhered them to my card.  I adhered the snowmen and the sentiment strip with foam tape for some dimension.  

Copics Used:

Snowmen - BV20, BG70; R30, R00

Branch Arms - E33, E31

Noses - YR12, YR02

Sled - E33, E31, E30

Hat - C5, C3, C1

Scarves & Earmuffs - B02, B01, B000; G02, G00, G0000; BG13, BG11, BG10; R32, R30, R00; E02, E01, E000
