Mementoes In Time

Our final project for this year, is to make some lovely gift bags for your presents using either backing papers for smaller bags or a piece of wrapping paper, to make bags of more or less any size.The video below uses a sheet from our Scandinavian Knit themed papers set and will make a small bag for maybe some chocolates or a piece of jewellery but if you use a piece of wrapping paper you can make much bigger bags that co-ordinate with your other gi...

Our last card for this year, before leaving for a well earned rest features the Scandinavian Knit themed papers, this time combining them with the Sweater/Jumper Template. Again, these are simple and quick to make with a fun result that you can personalise to the recipient. I have decided to use the smaller ones with the smaller sized print for gift tags to use on my gifts this year.

Those of you who have read this blog over the years, will know that I love making little gifts to put on the Christmas Tree or on the dinner table. This was the thinking behind today's design, a set of lovely mini crackers/bon bons that you can cover ...

Well, we are very close to Christmas now, so probably if you are a card maker, you have finished your projects or maybe even moved onto some Christmas decor items instead.

We are coming to a close soon with our Christmas Series projects. I did say that in my first post that there won't be many after a difficult year but having looked back at what has been posted in the last couple o...

Here is a quick video 'how to' to make the folded trees featured on the cards in our last post!

This year we have been featuring lots of Christmas Tree themed cards and decorations. I think the Christmas Tree is so iconic and is such a lovely choice for anyone making crafts of any kind but particularly for papercraft.

We are well into our Christmas 2016 series, with lots more to come. However, today, as promised, here are some photo instructions for the Tree Box featured yesterday.

Today's project features some lovely Tree Shaped Boxes. You can find the template for this on the normal template pages under the tab for Box Templates.

Today, we have a very quick card idea, which is actually a good one for the children or grandchildren to make, or if you like your projects nice and simple.

If you love making simple but pretty decorations for Christmas, then this project is perfect for you.
