Cara Craft Supplies Monthly Projects!!   

 

November 2006 - Jacqui B's Projects!

Hi I'm Jacqui and I'm happily married to a very patient man, have one beautiful daughter Alanna, a dog Tipp,

and a cat called Lil. I started out my craft life doing interior design, and still love to keep up to date with home

projects. I always seem to have one room on the go being " revamped" :)  I did an art course while on temporary

sick leave for a back problem, and from there discovered card making!  At the beginning I found it extremely hard

source nice products for my hobby, but I soon discovered the internet and sites like www.craftsupplies.ie and there's

been no stopping me since!  My next step is to try scrapbooking as one of the things I don't like about card making

is having to give away my prized creations :)  I'm thrilled and honoured to be part of this team and hope you enjoy

my projects!  Happy Christmas everyone!!  I hope you enjoy my Nollaig-inspired projects this month.

Project 1 - Christmas Cracker Cards!! 

Materials

A4 Gold Card

A4 Silver Card

Oddments of coloured card

Modern Trees Peel Off Stickers

Oval Merry Christmas Gold Peel Off Stickers

White/Purple Fibres

Silver ribbon

Red Ribbon

Ivory ribbon

 

Instructions

Cut the A4 Gold card/or A4 Silver card in half and fold lengthwise to make a DL card. Cut a triangular edge as per the example and

snip a small v shape 1 inch in on either side, top and bottom to make the basic cracker shape.  Decorate the front of the card with

peel off stickers.  Thread various colour fibres and ribbons through the front v shape and tie in place.

Finally cut out two tag shapes from off cuts of card, thread a length of ribbon through to attach them both together and attach to

the front of the card.

 

Project 2 - Mulberry Tissue Card!

Materials

Cream square linen cards

Mulberry tissue in Ivory, Green, Red

Red Satin ribbon

Green ribbon

Ivory ribbon

Chipboard letters

Square Typewriter stickers Gold

Square Typewriter stickers White

 

Use a square linen card and cut a piece of the red mulberry tissue to cover the card front leaving aprox 1” at the top and

1 ½” at the bottom.  Tie a piece of the green ribbon to the top of the card and make a bow. Make a small slit in the spine of

the card on the left hand side to thread the ribbon through. Next glue down the red ribbon slightly under the

mulberry paper and then under this glue down some more of the green ribbon.  Cut out a basic triangle Christmas tree shape

from green card and attach this to left hand side of the mulberry paper using glue dots.  Take the M of the Heidi Swapp letters

and cover this with Basic Grey paper. Sand gently to distress it and ink the edges with any ink pad you have. Place this directly

over the hand cut Christmas tree. Finally use the letters E R R Y and space them evenly beside the monogram letter and add the

word Christmas under this. I have made this card in 3 different colours to show you the different ways of using this design
