My favourite, good strong coffee, you can’t beat it!

Now I don't drink coffee but I love the smell! How do you take yours?

Today I have a gift for anyone at Christmas, presented in a window box.
I think the Snow Wonder bundle is very versatile it can be used on endless styles and layouts to great effect. It's definitely a Snow Wonder Christmas in this house this year!

Today back to Snow Wonder. Garden Green side of the Toile Tidings DSP appears again today, I thought the children building the snowman on the DSP lends itself to having our vintage snowman on the front. I hope you enjoy!

The snowman is not the only beautiful stamp in the Snow Wonder set, the trees and the wreath both stamp beautifully.
I have used Whisper White and Garden Green cardstock, The DSP is from the wonderful Poinsettia Place. the ribbon is the Crinkled team Binding, coloured Real Red with a Blender pen. I held back on the embellishments, but I may add something, what do you think? Gems or Stella, or any other suggestions!

This is one of the easiest fancy folds I've come across and is just as effective as the traditional easel card.
A bit awkward to photograph, but when time is of the essence and seasonal colour cardstock is running low, this is an easy answer to produce multiple cards.
The Snow Wonder Stamps and Snow Time Dies used with this one. Very Vanilla card base, with Toile Tidings DSP.
Watercolour pencils and blender pen used to colour the snowman and wreaths.
I have so many ideas for this set, I don't think it will ever leave my collection (I don't like calling it a hoard 😄).

The Snowflake Splendour DSP makes the perfect background for this wintery scene that can be hung as an alternative to an indoor wreath.

Stamps: Snow Wonder
Dies: Snow Time Dies
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Shaded Spruce,
Coloured with SU Markers

Today I have two cards, the first a bridge card. Now I have had several comments and opinions, but I myself am not happy with it, my grandson loves it, so it will be his card this Christmas.
The second shows the versatility of this stamp set. Not a snowman in sight, but the trees and the sentiment are enough to make this card.

Hi!
I hope everyone had a good weekend. I had a great time taking part in . Stampin’ Up! did such a great job, there were still prize patrols, and apart from not seeing a room full of old and new demo friends it had all elements we are used to. The best bit was you could pause the broadcast if you needed a comfort break or coffee during, and no queues for the toilets! 😂
Today’s offering is back to the cards. I am not usually a Tartan/Plaid person (sorry Margaret) but the beautiful plaids that Stampin Up have brought out again this year are so very versatile. Modern colours for Autumn and more traditional for Winter. Cutting a strip from the 6x6 paper is enough to add interest under the focal point, and makes the DSP go further.
Card base: Garden Green
DSP: Perfectly Plaid
Card Matt: Whisper White
Stamps: Snow Wonder & Itty Bitty Christmas
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Coloured with SU Watercolour pencils.
Stay safe everyone! x

Happy Friday! I hope the weather is as bright and sunny with you as here.
Today let’s step away from the cards. I haven’t started Christmas planning quite yet. But when I do I need Post-it’s galore! These are also useful for when new catalogues are launched, and I gave one to expecting mums. The uses are endless and always well received.
As it’s Friday more than one photo and version.
Have a good weekend my lovelies!

Another card using the Snow Wonder stamp set. This time I've used the an embossed matt, but the stamping is still very simple. I've found the snowman stamped in different inks can look so different. Here almost sepia tones.
I used Garden Green for the card base, Sahara Sand and Garden Green for the matts. I stamped Crumb Cake on Whisper White cardstock, the sentiment stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black from Itty Bitty Christmas. I used Dainty Diamonds on the Garden Green layer, another lovely subtle embossing folder which is great for Christmas and all year through.

I'm Guest Stamper this month in my Team, the Sparkling Sunflowers. I chose the Snow Wonder stamp set, which is overlooked by many with so much to chose from in the fabulous mini catalogue.
A simple start to the month using a Night of Navy card base, stamped Memento Tuxedo black on Whisper White card. I’ve used Snow Wonder and Itty Bitty Christmas for the sentiment, then coloured with Stampin Blends.
