Coffee and Chat with Han | Online Extravaganza!

Happy Saturday!

Recently I started a brand new video series over on my YouTube channel, Coffee and Chat with Han! I’m hoping to get one of these out every couple of weeks, usually on a Wednesday (Yes, I know that today is Saturday, but I thought I would share it today, seeing as I didn’t earlier in the week).

I do apologise for the very strange expression on my face, YouTube picks lovely shots for title cards!

Christmas Countdown | Non-Traditional Christmas Card using Glamper Greetings

Glamper Greetings Christmas Card using Stampin' Up! UK Products

Ok, with a month to go until the big day I was hoping to be more organised this year, but alas I still have a heap of shopping to do, I haven’t made as many Christmas cards as I need yet, and I haven’t even thought about the day itself yet! but it’s ok, because I have another Christmas Countdown project for you, so enjoy while I go and panic about all the stuff I still need to get done!

A few months ago on of the lovely ladies on the Stampin’ Up! Artisan Design Team did a super simple project stamping onto Crumb Cake card stock with Basic Black ink, I love the look, and couldn’t miss the opportunity to do something simple with this cute snowman from Glamper Greetings

Measurements:

Card Base – Crumb Cake – 10.5 x 29.6 cm, scored at 14.8 cm

Matt – Basic Black – 10 x 14.3cm

Layer – Crumb Cake – 9.5 x 13.8 cm

Sentiment strip – Crumb Cake – 1 x 10.5 cm

Question of the day: What traditions do your family have at Christmas time? I don’t know if we really have any, both James and I are so busy around Christmas we barely see each other let alone have a tradition! Although I do make him an Advent calendar each year, really should get on with that!

Wow, this Make It Monday looks like it took ages, but really its super quick!

I needed to whip up a bunch of Customer thank you cards in a hurry over the weekend and this was the perfect way to get a stack of cards made in a flash, seriously all 14 cards made in less than 30 minutes! These Thank you cards use Affectionately Yours Speciality Designer Series Paper and Endless Thanks.

Now, rather than listing all the measurements here, I have created a great PDF Download for you this week, it includes the cutting guide to getting all these pieces from 1 sheet of Designer Series Paper!

Now, I have also made 14 Christmas cards using Christmas Pines and Presents and Pinecones Designer Series Paper.

How to …. Make a Quick and Simple Sympathy Card

How to video tutorial quick and easy simple sympathy card using Rose Wonder from Stampin' Up! UK

There are some cards that we should always have on hand; birthday cards, congratulations, Thank you… for me a With Sympathy card falls into that ‘must have’ category. However I found a couple of weeks ago that I didn’t have one when I really needed one (so of course I whipped one up) and so I thought I would share a Quick and Easy sympathy card for you to either make in a hurry, or make and keep on hand for those sad occasions.

Smoky Slate

Emerald Envy

Wisteria Wonder

I’m loving that colour combination too, although the Wisteria Wonder hasn’t translated awfully well in the photograph

What do you do when you need a card in a hurry?

Christmas Countdown | Perpetual Advent Calendar

Yay! Christmas Countdown, that must mean that it is FRIDAY! Thank goodness, I am tired this week…. in serious need of the weekend.

Now, the video has two sets of measurements this week…. basically because I was more than a bit tired when I filmed this on Wednesday. The true measurements are underneath the video 🙂

Measurements:

Card stock: Emerald Envy – 25 x 18 cm (10 x 7 1/8″)

Score on the long side at 6, 12, 18 and 24 cm (2 3/8, 4 3/4, 7 1/8, and 9 1/2″)

Score on the short side at 6 and 12 cm (2 3/8 and 4 3/4″)

You will also need 12 pieces of Designer Series Paper that measure 5.5 x 5.5 cm (2 1/8″ x 2 1/8″)

My plan is for a base for this project next Friday, hopefully….

Christmas Countdown | Easy Card using Christmas Pines

Easy Christmas Pines Card using Stampin' Up! UK products

My favourite Stamp and die bundle at the moment is Christmas Pines. Did you know that when you buy a bundle, you save 10%? You can find all the current bundles over in my Webstore.

How cute is that Designer Series Paper?! This is Warmth and Cheer; I love this paper stack, for a start it has awesome festive patterns and some really lovely colour combinations, but also it’s 6 x 6″ pad, which makes is awesome for Card making, AND its only £9!

Measurements:

Card Base – Crumb Cake – 21 x 14.8 cm, scored on the long side at 10.5 cm

Basic Black Layer – 10 x 14.3 cm

Whisper White – 13.8 x 6 cm

Designer Series Paper – 13.8 x 6 cm

My favourite part of this card is that POP of copper! not only the Copper Metallic Thread, but that super shiny pine cone die cut from Copper Foil Paper – so pretty

The die cuts are adhered using Fine-Tip Glue. I have a couple of top tips for using this great adhesive:

Stick with it! At first I wasn’t a fan, but as I have continued to use it, it gets easier – partly because I’ve learned it’s properties and therefore can control it better, but also because the bottle isn’t full anymore, making it easier to use.
Use it one the silicone mat – saves me sticky fingers!
You only need a tiny amount, can you see where it has spread on this card … that’s because I used too much (Ooops!) but I blame the video camera!
