Postbox bunny

January 23, 2023January 22, 2023 Sarah

I have been known to participate in "Christmas in July" before, but I'm pretty sure this is the first time I've made a Christmas card in January.

Penguin with trees

December 26, 2022December 26, 2022 Sarah

It turns out that the dragon card for my mum wasn't actually the last Christmas card that I had to make this year, there was one more left to do.

Dragon and Christmas star

December 23, 2022December 18, 2022 Sarah

The last Christmas card of 2022 is an individual card for my mum. I'd run out of cute rodents so I coloured up this cute dragon with a wooden Christmas star instead.

Snowflakes

December 21, 2022December 18, 2022 Sarah

My final set of Christmas cards this year. A foiling failure forced me to adapt and it ended up being my favourite set as well.

Cross-stitch candle

December 19, 2022December 15, 2022 Sarah

While I was thinking about the design for my next set of Christmas cards, I used the last of the cross stitch die cuts and stitched a traditional Christmas candle.

Cross stitch snowman

December 16, 2022December 15, 2022 Sarah

I enjoyed making the last cross stitch card and so I decided to take a break from all the cutting and gluing and stitch a snowman.

Christmas star v2

December 14, 2022December 14, 2022 Sarah

In the spirit of cutting down on waste, I used the leftover cut-out pieces from the last set of cards to make some more.

Christmas star

December 12, 2022December 13, 2022 Sarah

I was pondering designs for another set of Christmas cards and settled on the idea of a star on a stained-glass-style background. Once I'd created the design, the cards came together quickly.

Cross stitch Christmas tree

December 9, 2022December 4, 2022 Sarah

I fancied a bit of a change from making the block Christmas tree cards — though I do have a plan for one other set using that basic design — so I dug through my stash of dies and found my, as yet unused, little cross stitch die.

Foil cut-out block Christmas tree

December 7, 2022December 4, 2022 Sarah

Another attempt at foiled cards. The distressed look wasn't what I was aiming for but I worked with it and ended up with two more cards for the Christmas card stash.

Pink foil Christmas tree

December 5, 2022December 4, 2022 Sarah

More Christmas cards made using my block Christmas tree design, but this time I turned it into a stencil and got out the shiny pink foil.

Block Christmas trees

December 2, 2022December 4, 2022 Sarah

After making the last two pairs of cards I was left with all the blocks that had been cut out to make those trees. Rather than waste them, I decided to turn them into some more cards for this year's stash.

Glitter block Christmas tree

November 30, 2022December 4, 2022 Sarah

The second pair of my block Christmas tree cards. I'm using the same design but I still want to vary the cards, so this time I went for a more glittery approach.

Ribbon block Christmas tree

November 28, 2022December 4, 2022 Sarah

Having successfully ignored the C-word for many weeks, I had to give in and start making some Christmas cards, if only to avoid getting ridiculously stressed out when December arrives all too quickly.

Christmas kitty

December 25, 2021December 25, 2021 Sarah

The last Christmas card of the year and one of my favourites. One of my other half's nieces got a new kitty cat earlier this year and she has turned into a self-confessed crazy cat lady and absolutely adores Tommy. So, when I came across this digi stamp I just had to try and turn… Continue reading Christmas kitty

Hi, my name is Sarah and I live in London, UK with my very techy other half. When I’ve got the energy, my days are spent getting crafty and trying to remember to blog about it.
