Crafty Ribbons ~ Cyril the Snowman

Happy Saturday Everyone

Meet Cyril

Why Cyril?? To be honest I have no idea, but when making fun things I love to name them and Cyril just arrived in my head :-)

He was so, so easy to make with very few ingridiants

2 sheets of white A4 Card Stock

half a sheet of black 

a mini scrap of orange

2 googly eyes

scraps of ribbon

I cut him out on my portrait and adhered him together 

I did actually add some blue glittered cardstock to his hat, but later went over with a scrap of ribbon to match his fun scarf

Lastly adding a small length of ribbon for the drawer pull

This is actually a wonderful size with plenty of uses

Fill with sweets for a great affordable Teachers gifts (makes note)

Stocking fillers filled with treats or small gifts

I'm sure you can thing of many more

The ribbons I have used today are from

Crafty Ribbons

and they are from the 

Christmas Owls Collection

Thank you for stopping by today

Today I have made a little Happiness Box

I cut it on my portrait using the file from Sandra's that you can find here

It's called a happiness box as with the file you also get some fortune cookies

I have used mine as a little Christmas gift box

I decorated using the new collection
Festive Christmas
  layering up the stocking

and using some lovely sparkly festive berries

Lots of glitter , a few dew drops for the flower center 

Tied up with a little ribbon and some jingly bells

Thank you for looking

Papermill Direct

Have you seen the news?

Papermill Direct are having a DT call

Check out all the details here

I adore there card and use it tons so I thought why not have a bash

Last week I was asked to make a Baby Boys card I enjoyed it so much

I thought I would stick with the baby theme.

So this is my project I have made to enter the call

I made the blue set first but loved it so much I made a matching one in pink

exchanging the little shoes for some girly sandals.

The Blue set was made using

Linen Card & Marine Blue Smooth Card

I added some little laces and some frilly lace around the box lid and shoes

How nice would this set look personalised as a gift.

(hmmmm maybe another set in the making)

For the pink set I used

White card & Baby Pink Plain Card

again adding a touch of frilly lace to the sandals and the box lid

Here are some more photo's in my little slide show

Although before I finish my post I must show you a close up of the little shoes and sandals

A little fiddly but oh so worth the effort....

Thank you for looking
