 For all those All Blacks fans out there! Here is the card for you.  One of New Zealand's iconic rugby teams jumped out at me when I saw this set in the new Stampin' Up! annual catalogue.

It is so nice to be back with you again along with the Let's get hopping crew. Only 5 days till Christmas and we are certainly excited about it in our house. We have got our freshly cut tree up, decorated and smelling amazing, the children are counting down the sleeps till the big red man himself comes for a visit. I hope you are all keeping well and are too looking forward to spending some quality time with your family and friends over the season. For this months challenge the Let's get hopping crew have made cards using the following sketch as a guideline to follow. My take on the sketch features the gorgeous Whimsy & Wonder designer series paper. I really wanted to highlight the beautiful colours in this paper. I have paired this the Peaceful Deer stamp set, the Stockings Dies and the White Glittered Organdy Ribbon. I would like to take this moment to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a wonderfully Happy New Year. Click the Next Blog button below to check out Tany

I everyone I am back with the Let's Get Hopping crew for the 'Anything But A Card' theme. If you have joined me from Tanya Rees blog I am sure you have seen an amazing creation. I can't wait to check it out myself. As I imagine with the mini catalogue underway a lot of us have started thinking about Christmas and I for one have even started singing carols. Especially after seeing the gorgeous stamp sets 'For Unto Us' pg. 41 and 'Holly Jolly Wishes' pg.29. I can't help but singing away reading those sentiments. Lately I have found myself making up gift boxes and filling them up with goodies that I know the person will just love. So with that in mind my project this month is a nail polish gift box with a matching nail file holder. From the Mini Catalogue July - December 2021 I have use the Whimsy & Wonder 12"x12" Specialty Designer Series Paper pg.25 along with the Sweet Little Stockings, Stocking Dies pg.31 and the Glittered Organdy Ribb

 

 

SWEET LITTLE STOCKINGS I had some time this morning to do some crafting, before I had to brave it, out in the big wide world, after weeks of lockdown. I decided in order to get the true feeling of this bundle I would stamp and cut all of the stamps within the set. The first up was the candy cane. As soon as I stamped this on a piece of Very Vanilla I wondered to myself what this would look like stamped on Cherry Cobbler or what if I embossed it in white! Next minute I had cut down a card base (Trying out a new size) stamped and embossed the card front and fell in love with this card. I am still yet to stamp and cut all of the images lol Supplies Used:
