Merry Christmas

O.K., so it's a little early but Christmas always starts early once I get my 0ctober/November copy of Let's Make Cards as the magazine includes card making kits with plenty of options for making Christmas cards.

In the latest issues readers also got a Christmas tree stamp.  I'm not very good at stamping, but I am getting pretty good at hiding all of my mistakes with some cleverly placed glitter.

The kits are designed by Sally Moret, and they look fantastic.  Inside you'll find plenty of suggestions for card making, but I am trying to stop being so lazy and come up with at least some ideas of my own.  Along with the components from the kit, I've also used some of my own embellishments just to make my cards look different.

You'll find my version of "Festive Hearts" here.

These are the cards I've made so far, and there are plenty more to come.  The yellow card featured first will soon be winging its way to Australia.

Let's Make Cards Magazine

At the weekend I finally managed to find time to sit down with my latest issue of Let's Make Cards magazine.

I love looking through the various designs and through all of the different ideas that can be made with the free kits.

Usually, I just copy the designs but I am trying to get more creative and come up with my own designs and ideas.

I'm still putting together some cards from this month's kit but in the meanwhile, this is my version of festive hearts.
