Christmas in July

Welcome to my first ever Christmas in July event. Everyday this month I will be posting something to do with Christmas

My fist Christmas Make of 2022 is this cute little snowflake tree decoration. It's made using one of the built in cutting files on my scan and cut. I cut four identical pieces in greyboard and sandwiched them together along with a ribbon loop. I coloured it with one of my sparkle pens, and finished it off with some iridescent glitter.

I will be posting a video on how I made this decoration on my YouTube Channel.

Until next time

Take Notice of Your Surroundings

We tend to live in a bubble, only seeing what’s right in front of us, or focusing on things that relate to our interests. It’s easy to be unaware of your surroundings, but you might find some new friends if you just take notice of people around you. Your social circle is expanding as we speak, and it can be difficult to stay connected with everyone; however, all it takes is one person with whom you share something in common.

Expand your horizons and make more connections by taking more notice today. Who knows where it could lead? Who knows who you’ll meet? And most importantly, who knows how many amazing things will hap...

Christmas Mini Album Page 1

Today I have done the first page of my mini album. It's a simple gatefold page. I cut the page to 7.5x7.5 ins. The two side flaps are cut at 5.5x5.5 ins and scored at 1.5 ins on the short side. I stuck the flaps at each side of the page to form the gatefold. I chose complimentary papers in traditional Christmas colours from rhe Classic Christmas Collection by Hunkydory. I cut all of the papers .25 of an inch smaller than the pages and flaps to give a border all of the way round. If you are using magnet closures remember to place them before you add your decorative papers. If you would like to see a video showing how I made this album page here is the link page 1 I have also done a short video showing how I add my album pages which you can find here adding pages to album Until next time Happy Crafting
