Craft Consortium, It's Snome Time, Christmas Organiser

If you have seen the 'It's Snome Time' range that Craft Consortium has just released you will know it has heaps to choose from!

...  And heaps of stuff means heaps of cards and tags, right?




Here's my idea on how to get organised.  
It could even be given as a gift in itself? 



Do you like my idea of a Christmas Organiser? 
It even has elastic string attached so that nothing can fall out!



 Remove the straps (they slide behind).
Open it up...



...  And you'll see a handy paperclip, plus three charms and some string to tie up your parcels!



Here's a view of the whole organiser...



...  And this is what the inside looks like when empty!



Some 'quick to make' card ideas that you can add bling to or leave just as they are...





A close up of where the tags go...



(The toppers make great quick tags, too)!




...  And one more close up of the inside to finish!






Sorry it's such a 'photo heavy' post!

Want to see a list of the Craft Consortium supplies used?

(This organiser was made using a Sizzix 'Journal' XL Scoreboard die.   Don't fret if you don't have one...  this is just a basic idea that you can hopefully adapt to suit your supplies).




Have a good day!

Craft Consortium, The Herbarium, Suitcase Garden/Gift Box

Craft Consortium has a wonderful new release just out...

It's called The Herbarium and features two clear stamp sets, three sets of cute metal charms and a sumptuous 12x12 premium paper pad.


As you can see below, I've had a lot of fun making mine into a 'Suitcase Garden' Gift Box...  just perfect for those keen gardener types out there!












I've started by covering the suitcase die in paper prior to cutting, then stamped a few images on to tissue paper and attached that to the front.

Add some charms, toppers, stamped and water coloured images to the front (along with a few dies from my own personal stash), then decorate the inside just enough so it doesn't look bare...

...  and there you have it.



I do so love making gift boxes, and this collection makes it so easy.



Here's a list of the Craft Consortium supplies used:

Metal Charms - Trowel



Metal Charms - Herb Scissors

Cherish The Memory, Wrapped Journal, Ephemera...

Cherish The Memory sells some of the prettiest ephemera and background papers - just take a look for yourself and you'll soon see what I mean.

And sometimes it's nice to get lots of those pretty papers and ephemera and little accent pieces and just layer them all up into a beautiful montage...

But I'm not doing that today! 

Instead, I'm sharing an idea with you that doesn't use a lot, but it does show that with just a few carefully chosen pieces combined with dies from your stash you can make something truly special - whether it's a gift for yourself or for someone else...



















Not only is this beautiful (I made it for me so I admit I am truly biased) - it's practical, too.

This is where I will store my bits and pieces so that they don't get lost or torn.
(FYI - The pages are made from passport protector covers)!
