Craft Consortium, Woodland/Ink Drops, Mini Cards And Envelope Set

I've created a 'mini cards and envelope set' using some of the most adorable illustrations from Craft Consortium's 'Woodland' collection...  and paired them up using envelopes from their Essential Craft Papers range called Ink Drops/Vivid.




Sometimes a mini card is all you need! 
















 

In case you were wondering, the holder has been covered using the Essential Craft Papers 'Metal Textures' collection...  I just love the way it works so well with those vivid ink drop colours.

Craft Consortium, Woodland, Gift Card/Money Holder

This is my first post of 2021...  so I guess I should say 'Happy New Year' to you!


Shopping for gifts isn't always easy, so here's a stylish way of giving a gift voucher/gift card or money instead...






Do you like the way that the wooden topper is hidden away until you open it up?

I'm sure this little cutie will bring a smile to someone's face!







(Quick tip...  grab two or three credit/debit/membership type cards from your purse and place them 'in situ' where the gift card will go before securing the sides to make it easier to put the gift card in once finished.  I actually went so far as to stitch both sides of this one before  covering it with a lace edge).

If you like the craft die 'enjoy' that I have used on here today you'll be pleased to know it's also available from Craft Consortium.

It is bitterly cold outside today, so stay warm!

Craft Consortium, Woodland, Junk Journal/Scrapbook

My project today features just a few of the many papers, toppers and charms you will find in the new Woodland collection - designed by Clare Therese in conjunction with Craft Consortium.


I'm not sure whether to call this a 'junk journal' or a scrapbook as it really combines both ideas...






 
















The inner pockets and front cover also include a piece of paper from the Essentials/Dark Grunge collection...  




And the pages themselves?

Cut from my vast supply of brown paper packaging.



You may notice that the tree topper has a distressed look to it.  This is easily achievable with just a light sanding.





Thank you so much for stopping by.

Don't forget the project launch is due today on the Create and Craft Channel at 12 noon (GMT)!

Craft Consortium, Noel, Distressed Christmas Card

I'm taking a break from all things Halloween to share a Distressed Christmas card with you all...


This card was made using two papers from Craft Consortium's 6x6 Noel collection,  plus one additional topper and a wreath metal charm.  

(Additional elements include some torn paper from the Grunge - Dark Tones collection and White Elegant Satin Ribbon from the Always & Forever collection, plus some kraft card, twine, silver Stickles and stamps from my own personal stash).






I hope your own Christmas plans are going well.

How many Christmas cards have you made so far, I wonder?

Craft Consortium, Noel, 'Open Window' Christmas Card

 I've created a 'subtle scene' Christmas card today that's just perfect for those who don't like anything too fussy...








The scene itself is made from Craft Consortium's 'Noel' release 6x6 papers and a wooden topper, with just a few snowflake (punch cut) embellishments using their gorgeous silver non-shedding glitter card.

The Essentials 12x12 'Metal Textures' paper collection was used for the frame itself.

 Bells tied in the corner also part of the 'Noel' release.





 

Thanks so much for stopping by...

Craft Consortium, Noel, Christmas Lantern Table Decorations

Do you need a quick table decoration idea for your Christmas festivities?








The papers, charms and embellishments used here are all from the 'Noel' collection by Craft Consortium.  (Size of papers used: 6x6), except for the handles (Metal Textures) and punch cut snowflakes (non shedding silver glitter card).










As you can see they make very simple, but very effective table decorations - especially if you can get hold of some colour changing tea lights!

Craft Consortium, Noel, Pocket Gift Tags

I haven't used a 6x6 paper with my design projects in a very long time...  and with everything on a smaller scale I had to 'think small', too!


So here are some Christmas Pocket Gift Tags  - just a little trio to 'whet your appetite' and show you the kinds of things that you can make at home.
