Season of Style Designer Rosette Bigz XL Die Christmas Tree with Tutorial

Do you need a unique but simple Christmas Gift?

Well here is a Christmas Tree I have made for one of my boys teacher gift.



Here are the simple instructions to create the cute tree

I have cut the following pieces from the Seasons of Style Designer Series Paper :
3 strips of 3″ x 12″, 3 strips of 2 3/4″ x 12″, 2 strips of 2 1/2″ x 12″, 2 strips of 2 1/4″ x 12″, 2 strips of 2″ x 12″, 2 strips of 1 3/4″ x 12″, 2 strips of 1 1/2″ x 12″, 2 strips of 1 1/4″ x 12″, 2 strips of 1″ x 12″, 1 strip of 3/4″ x 12″
I have then cut  strip 2 at a time in the Big Shot with the Designer Rosette Bigz XL Die
Next fold all the strips mountain valley (concertina) and connect the matching strips together to form a circle.
Now you will need hot glue gun or very strong glue. While this is heating up I punched 19 circles for the top and bottom of the rosettes. (The top rosette only needs on circle on the bottom)
I have used the Silicone Craft Mat to protect my work surface from the hot glue. 
Place one of circles down add a generous glob of hot glue to the middle of the circle and form your rosette and hold until the glue is cooled a little then add your next circle to the top. Repeat this for all your circles.
To assemble the tree I have used Stampin Dimensionals between each layer.
To finish the tree I have added a tree topper using Silver Glimmer Paper and a spray of Vanilla Shimmer Smooch Spritz
I will be wrapping the tree in clear cellophane and tie a pretty piece of ribbon abound the top
I hope these are helpful instructions.

Tag It Christmas with Multi Coloured Stamping

Who doesn't love a simple Christmas Card with a punch?

I love the bow on this card and the multi coloured stamped image. 

I have done this by colouring the stamp using the brush end of our Stampin' Write Markers the "huffing" on it rehydrate the ink before stamping the image onto Whisper White card stock.


Also don't forget that when you purchase our Tag It stamp set we donate $3 from each set to Ronald McDonald House Charities in Australia

Joy to the World with Lovely as A Tree

Do you like a little pink in your Christmas? I do and have used Primrose Petals on this card.

Can you recognise the background stamp? Well it isn't a stamp it is actually the Beautifully Baroque Embossing Folder inked up the our Silver Encore Ink placed on the card stock. I then used the Brayer to apply pressure and transfer the ink and create a beautiful background

Label Card Thinlits with Really Good Greetings and Sketched Birthday

I am really enjoying using the Label Thinlits Card Die are you?

 I have made a number of kids cards with it and here is a card I made with a recent Stamp Club


This is a twist on the original card die as there is an extra flap to the card.

 I have achieved this by cuttng the card stock slightly thinner than the Label Thinlits Card Die but left it it full width of our A4 card stock.

 I have then threaded the card stock into the die leaving the right side hanging over the die so it will not cut. This leaves a perfectly scored edge to fold creating extra room to write a special message or even add a photo to your project.
