Christmas is coming!We have a

Christmas is fast approaching and here at the Crafty Yellow Camper we’ve been busy with Christmas cards over the last few weeks, prepping kits for classes and planning for our mini onstage (more on that later).
Stampin Up! have given us such a wide range of Christmas crafting supplies that cover all your Christmas needs and much more it’s been hard to decide where to start, I have had so many ideas floating around in my head that it’s been difficult to pin them down and start on my own cards!
I thought today I would share some of the ideas that we have made in my October classes.

Firstly

We have a fabulous suite of items that I have used to make this snow globe shaker card, so easy to put together with our snow globe shaker domes which come already sticky for you to assemble easily and there is a great set of stamps and dies which coordinate to make it even easier. I think those little polar bears are my favourite and they will be appearing on lots of my cards this year!

I also wanted to show you that you don’t need to use the domes to get other great cards using this set..

On this card I have used the dies but not the domes and after inking it spritzed it with some frost white all purpose ink to give it lots of shimmer. The dies make it really easy to create a scene with little or no stamping, which is great for mass production.

On this card I used the wonderful snow front to create a Christmas mountain scene, a great stamp set for creating endless scenes using different combinations of the stamps. I will be showing you later on how to pair this with Waterfront to expand the possibilities.

That’s all from me today, watch this space for more ideas.

Happy stamping
