Hi Crafty Friends,

Recently Hero Arts released some new fun Halloween themed Big Mouth dies which work with the mechanism I got last year to make the Big Mouth Nutcracker. At the time I thought .... oh I wish there was an elf or something similar I could use for Christmas. 

Well someone else had the same thought as she had turned the Big Mouth Vampire into an elf which I loved and figured I could do something similar so I ordered the die. This card is inspired by one made by Julie White Currier.

I pulled out the Elf Hat from Waffle Flower Crafts to use as hat, it was easy enough to make it fit on my elf's head. I also used some elf themed sentiments to add to the mouth when you pull the tab down.

I kept the inside simple, seeing the focus is on the outside. Just adding another of the sentiments from the Waffle Flower Crafts stamp set.

   

Hi Crafty Friends,

Today I am sharing two Christmas themed Mini Slimline cards I created recently.

Both these cards uses rub ons from the Oh What Fun Virtual Event. Some of these rubs included in this pack are small, so they are perfect to use with the Mini Slimline Postage Collage dies.

I added mat layers to my cards using colours used on the rub ons.

   

 

Hi Crafty Friends,

Today I am sharing another Christmas themed card using Rub Ons and an Embossing Folder from Spellbinders.

For the embossing folder I used the A2 Ornate Molded Frame Embossing Folder. I die cut it from both red and white cardstock, cutting out the centre section from the white panel. I added rub ons to the white panel using the Season of Joy Rub Ons set. I layered this to an A2 card.

I added two sentiments to the inside using the Holiday Banner Greetings Press & Foil Plate.

   

Hi Crafty Friends,

Today I am sharing a Christmas themed Pop up card using one of the new pop up die sets from Made To Surprise by Sam Calcott’s Say It With Words Collection.

For this one I used the Fa La La Pop up die set. 

To decorate my card, I pulled out Spellbinders penguins from the July 26 Small Die of the Month.

The sentiment is an old Mama Elephant one that I love to pull out when adding penguins to a Christmas card.
