Here are three of the cards made with parts of the music paper, with sentiments and small toppers added from the kits and the silver,  gold or glittered green poinsettias from Italian Options.

Happy Christmas

Another card made this morning using the Gemini snowflakes cut and emboss folder with a piece of blue mirror card, matted on to a piece of silver holographic and then on to gold mirror card on the tent style A5 card blank. I then added the lovely glitter snowflakes raised up with 3D foam from Italian Options (Amazon) and the sentiment matted on to a snippet of blue mirror card.

Simply Faith at Christmas

A quick Christmas card today, using the Gemini Faith cut and emboss folder with a piece of Hunkydory striped mirror card, matted  on to silver mirror card and then on to the side opening A5 card blank.

I'm including two photos of the card, trying to show the shine, but neither of them really do it justice.

Christmas Eve

Another card made yesterday, this time using the lovely Gemini cut and emboss folder called Christmas Eve. I cut and embossed using a piece of black self adhesive sheet, which I then stuck on to holographic silver card - this, of course, looks different depending how the light is shining on it. I added some punched out snowflakes. The sentient was stuck on to a small piece of the holographic silver, and everything on to another A5 tent opening card blank.

Apart from the card blank and sentiment, everything else used up offcuts/snippets and so I am entering this into Pixie's snippets 389 - so glad to be back in the playground.

DL Christmas card

I had an offcut of patterned pearlescent card, so I positioned it into the Gemini Christmas angel cut and emboss folder and then mounted on to dark blue mirror card and on to the blue DL card blank, with the addition of the sentiment.


This view shows that the angel cut  out was mounted on to blue mirror card (a lot darker actually than here because the light is full on it):

Away in a manger

A card made yesterday using another of the cut and emboss Gemini folders, Away in a manger, cut with silver mirror card and mounted on to pearlescent gold, using a piece of them to mount the clear tape sentiment made on my dymo letratag.

Once again, I'm sharing two photos to try to show how this card looks, but neither of them show it as well as it looks irl.

Hark, the herald angels sing

A card made yesterday using the lovely Gemini cut and emboss Christmas angel folder, cutting with gold foil and backing with silver holographic foil. The sentiment across the bottom was made on my dymo letratag with clear tape, then stuck on to a piece of the mirror card.

As usual with foiled card, very difficult to take a photo to show it well, so I'm showing two photos, neither of which look as bright and lovely as irl.

Have a spud-tacular birthday

I made this card yesterday - commissioned to be given to a son who is a gardener. I used papers and other pieces from the Kanban allotment collection. The background for the front of the side opening A5 card is a piece of the grey wood effect paper with an overlay of vellum with secateurs and little garden forks. I was able to secure the vellum well, with sticking the toppers over it and the little fences, potted plant and the cut out wellies. The little circle at the top says 'Just for you Son'.


Inside, using more papers from the it and the plants and fences etc.


Back - a tag from the kit:
