Lets celebrate Christmas

Hi all,

I hope those of you that tuned into Create & Craft over the weekend to check out the new Party Paws collection enjoyed the shows. I have some more cards to show you today but this time I used the fabulous Papercrafting Kit that is exclusive to C&C.

I love the ease of use of these kits and really wanted to show that just because its a Hunkdory Kit - It doesn't have to be a pick & stick card (which I think is generally the trend with HD kits) so I tried to make use of the A4 Cardstock in a different way and created cards with different folds etc, and of course I totally love the printed acetate that comes with this collection. So much so I have gone and ordered myself another 2 lots of it just to make sure I have enough for all my Christmas cards lol.




Hope I have given you some inspiration to look at these kits in a different way, to be honest (and I am probably one those people myself) I think there is sometimes a bit of snobbery when it comes to using kits like this, that it is not proper crafting as they are renouned for the beginner/ pick and stick crafter. But if you can use them in a different way like this and take the kit to the next level so to speak you can create gorgeous cards that do give that wow factor. - I have a few more to show you later on in the week, again using different folds.

Thanks for popping by my blog today
