Another Top Note Elf Shoes Card

This is the first Top Note elf shoes Christmas card I made, but I decided I wanted the shoes beefier and the card a little brighter so I made the elf shoe Christmas card I showed earlier this week. This card is made the same way as the one in the video tutorial. On this card I used a Crumb Cake cardstock base and the Mixed Medley hostess stamp set.

Folded Christmas Tree Card

I made this folded Christmas tree card with non-Christmas paper in non-traditional colors. 🙂 It’s a very simple card. The folded tree is made the same way as the folded Christmas tree gift card I showed you last month. This tree was made with a larger, scallop circle and I added a bit to make it symmetrical.

Here’s a video on folding the Christmas tree and creating the folded scallop tree. Click here or here http://youtu.be/OG-cZTbYXC4 to view it.

I started with the Scallop Circle Bigz Die and the Big Shot Die-cutting Machine to create the large circle out of Birds of a Feather Designer Series Paper. Stampin’ Up!’s double-sided paper is perfect for this folded tree. A bit of glitter was added to the scallops with 2-way Glue and Dazzling Diamonds glitter. Grab some paper and just follow the directions on the video to make your trees!

(The links to the picture and description of the products I used on this card are at the bottom of this post.)

The card base is Crumb Cake cardstock and the sentiment from the Sweet Essentials stamp set was stamped in matching Island Indigo ink. I tied a knot of satin ribbon around the middle, added the tree with dimensionals behind it, adhered the Silver Glimmer star and a bit of matching Summer Starfruit cardstock for the tree base.

Make A Santa Treat Purse

I’ve been wanting to create a Christmas Santa Treat Box with the Petite Purse Bigz Die for a long time and I finally came up with a design I like. And I created a video tutorial to share with you how to make this little cutie.

The Santa was made with a lot of punches! I love punches! The beard was created with the 1-3/4″ Scallop Circle punch. The face I made with the Large Oval Punch and the 3/8″ Circle Punch from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack for the lip and the nose. The mustache is the wing from the Bird Builder Punch. I made the hat with the Petite Pennants Punch, the Large Oval Punch, the Scallop Oval Punch and the Boho Blossom Punch.

(The links to the picture and description of the products I used in this project are at the bottom of this post.)

A Top Note Elf Shoes Christmas Card

Top Note elf shoes Christmas card – love it!!! Once again I was inspired by a post on an upline business blog. And I created a video tutorial to show you how to create your own elf shoes Christmas card. Or create these whimsical shoes and put them upside down on sticks to place in a center piece or candy jar.

The complete supply list is at the end of this post with links to the product descriptions and pictures. I started with Gumball Green cardstock that I die-cut with the Top Note Bigz Die and the Big Shot Die-cutting Machine. The die is then cut in half from point to point and then each half is cut in half again at the point.

I used the 1-3/8″ and 1″ circle punches to create the shoe. And the 1-1/4″ scallop and 1″ circle punches to create the cuff. The balls on the toes are 3/4″ circles and the striped stocking legs measure 3/4″ x 3-1/2″. Just follow along with the video to learn how to use these tools to create this card.
