Christmas Cards with Wooden Shapes


Oh, what a dreadful day it was here today - dark, cold, foggy and wet. And as so many leaves are now coming off the trees, it was a good indication that autumn is here. The weather was slightly better in town, but here the fog did not lift all day. Although it was not raining at the time I ended up with completely damp clothes just by walking from the bus stop to the house, as I had to walk through the dense fog. I had not experienced anything like that before.

But hiding away in the house for the rest of the day gave me at least the chance to start catching up on project instructions.

Today I would like to make a start with three Christmas cards that I created with the new Dovecraft Twelve Days of Christmas collection by Trimcraft. All of them feature tartan papers from the collection and wooden embellishments.



I prepared detailed product lists and step-by-step instructions for all three projects. Just click onto the titles below the images to get directly to the relevant pages in my Trimcraft gallery.

Twelve Days of Christmas


 Oh, Trimcraft have brought out so many lovely new Christmas products this year. The Dovecraft collection 'Twelve Days of Christmas' features beautiful papers - many with beautiful red and green tones - as well as images from the popular song. There are also loads of gorgeous embellishments available.

On the card above I have also used one of the brand-new embossing folders (this one is from the Me to You Christmas collection). I have now used the embossing folders a number of times in my Cuttlebug and have always had a beautifully deep and very even impression. I am really delighted with the quality of these Trimcraft embossing folders.

For the fir tree branches I used a die by Marianne Design.

You can again find a product list and step-by-step instructions in my Trimcraft gallery.
