Christmas Peeloffs

The July Rudolph Days Challenge begins today and ends on the last day of the month. 

A quick and easy CAS card today, using up a few more of my peeloffs.  The background was embossed with an old Crafter's Companion e/f and layered it on a blue mat.  I attached three silver peeloffs to blue squares and raised them up on foam pads.

I am joining in the following challenges:

A Christmas card to share today.

The image is an old wood mounted stamp, stamped with Memento 'Tuxedo Black' and coloured with Promarkers.  The corners were die cut with a die from the Memory Box 'Distressed Holiday Collage' set.  I added two Memory Box 'Twilight Snowflake' die cut, cut in white, non-shed glitter card to add a little sparkle.

Special Daughter

We came home yesterday after a lovely ten days in our caravan in beautiful North Devon.  It was so lovely to get away near the sea for a break.  There were plenty of places to visit where we knew it would be quiet with very few people about.   It was also an opportunity to meet up with family who we haven't seen since Christmas for a small, socially distancing barbecue.  It was our daughter's birthday on Sunday and we were able to meet up with her to celebrate.  It was only the second time we've been able to see her since lockdown.  This is the card I made for her.

The card base was made with a Spellbinders 'Happy Days' step die.  The patterned paper is from a Dovecraft paper pad and all the flowers are from the Sizzix Thinlets set of dies, 'Floral Wreath'.  The sentiment is computer generated and punched with a SU punch.

Edited to add:
After finally finding the instructions for the fold on Google, it would seem that the card fold is called 'Pop Up Cube Card'.  Although these aren't the instructions I followed, here is a link how to make it.

I've no idea what this card fold is called, if anyone knows please leave me a comment.  I followed a Kanban Crafts video tutorial on their Facebook page.  Basically the card base is three rectangles cut from two A4 sheets of card, scored and stuck together.

It's a perfect design for using up little snippets and I put a dent in my piles of patterned paper and red card snippets.  The flowers were made with punches and I embossed all the red card with a Couture Creations 'Fireflies' embossing folder.  The sentiment was typed on the computer and punched with a SU punch.

What I like about this card is that it is easier to make than it looks and folds flat for posting.   I love making cards with fancy folds, so I'll be sharing my card over in the Country View Challenge where the theme is 'Do What Makes You Happy'.
