Christmas Cottages & Lamby-Pies
I had my team meeting on Sunday…I love getting together with my awesome, super-talented downline! Here are the projects we did:
The first card is using one of my favorite Christmas sets, To You & Yours. I just love cute little cottages. It’s real simple and easy to make a bunch if needed. I have a huge extended family and need to make lots of Christmas cards.
Stamps: To You & Yours, Bold Snowflakes Jumbo Wheel
Paper: Night of Navy, Brocade Blue, Shimmery White
Ink: Brocade Blue, Bashful Blue jumbo cartridge
Accessories: Brocade Blue 5/8″ Grosgrain Ribbon, Large Oval Punch, Jumbo Wheel Handle, Stampin’ Around Wheel Guide
I saw a version of the second card on SCS and had to case it. I changed it into a baby girl card. Isn’t that lamb the cutest?!
Stamps: sentiment from Nursery Necessities, flower from Eastern Blooms
Paper: Mellow Moss, Pretty In Pink, Whisper White, Basic Black
Ink: Mellow Moss, Pretty In Pink
Accessories: Pretty In Pink 1/4″ Grosgrain Ribbon, Black Gingham Ribbon, Scallop Circle Punch, Word Window Punch, Large Oval Punch, 1/2″ Circle Punch, Trio Flower Punch, Double Circle Punch, 1/16″ Circle Handheld Punch, Tag Punch, Small Tag Punch
Props: The layout is cased from Jami Sibley and the lamb is cased from Marisa
To make the lamb:
- Body: Scallop Circle Punch
- Legs: Word Window Punch
- Head: Large Oval Punch, cut in half
- Ears: 1/2″ Circle Punch, cut in half
- Hair: Trio Flower Punch
- Eyes: Double Circle Punch and 1/16″ Circle Handheld Punch
Thanks for the shout out! That makes a perfect baby card! I love your Christmas card too - I’ve really wanted that set, but haven’t ordered it.
Great job with the snowy look on the Christmas card. I love the shimmery cardstock.
The lamb is just too adorable! Great job!
