Last days to get your hands on the Snowflake Showcase!

How quick has November gone, I can't believe that December is almost here, which means there is only a few days left to purchase any of the items form the Snowflake Showcase promotion. I've used my favourites for this project, the Snow is Glistening Stamp Set and the GORGEOUS Snowfall Thinlets I'm feeling under the weather today, so I reached to the sample in the below flyer and gained inspiration.

After stamping the Merry sentiment in Merry Christmas to All over the snowflakes, I die cut the word Christmas from the card base (being careful to keep all of the little pieces), then 3 times in Coastal Cabana. The next step is to place a Costal Cabana die cut back into the card, then position your "little bits" back in to the card base, then layer the other Coastal Cabana die cuts on top of each other and finish by placing the white die cut from the

Beauty Abounds | Crazy Crafter Blog Hop with special guest Dena Rekow

Welcome to todays Crazy Crafter Special Guest Blog Hop, we have the great pleasure to be CASEing Dena Rekow from the United States, I love Dena's creations and tutorials - you many have visited her at The Creativity Cave . When I saw Dena's card, I fell in love with the double stamping, and decided to CASE (Copy and Selectively Edit) this element. Here's what I was inspired to create... I don't normally post projects from an upcoming catalogue  so early   (in this case the Occasions Catalogue, pre order available to Demonstrations from 5th Dec, and customer purchases from 3rd January 2019), but I got sooooo excited with my weekend delivery  of Product Purchase Premiere from OnStage I couldn't resist. This stamp set is called Beauty Abounds, and is a bundle with an absolutely gorgeous butterfly die cut (stay tuned for projects with that - there will be many, it's stunning).
