Joy of Sets Christmas Card Blog Hop 2018


Hello and welcome to the Joy of Sets Christmas Card Blog Hop 2018.  Hop along through all the lovely creative ideas for Christmas cards.  The Joy of Sets is a fantastic Facebook Group full of hundred of card and project ideas easily put together in albums to give you plenty of ideas and inspiration to use in your crafting.

The card I have chosen is using the Making Every Day Bright stamp set and coordinating Christmas Bulb Builder Punch

The fir cones were made more realistic by colouring them in with Crumb Cake light and dark blends. I also used some of the glimmer paper to add a little sparkle around the wreath.  Merry Merlot cardstock and ribbon was used to tie everything together with the lovely copper foiled Joyous Noel designer series paper.

Browse the current catalogues and choose your own Christmas products HERE There are also some 10% off special one day offers so if you need to stock up on some of the essentials worth taking a look.

Heres a step by step video tutorial to make a  masculine card using the same stamp set, Making Every Day Bright.

    1. Thanks Andrea, this was super easy as I made a circular template with the Stitched shaped framelits so I had something to put all the pine cones on and kept in a circle x

    1. Thanks Angie, if you use the blender pens on the pine cones you can create a more realistic look with light and dark shadows x

  7. Thanks Susan, the pine cones are lovely as they are a little bigger than the ones in Winter Woods and with a bit of colouring and shading look pretty good on a project
