Our First Guest Design Team Member!
Our first guest designer is Karen Wittkop, who has made some adorable fabric Santa gift bags (and pockets with tags) using the Wool Felt Set with the fabric Santa Postcards collage sheet.
I can't believe it's Thanksgiving already. I know some of you started your Christmas gift- and card-making last summer... but some of us are just getting started...
Set of five 12" x 18" sheets of gorgeous wool felt (40% wool/60% rayon) in Maroon, Olive, Sage, Red and Oatmeal. Very soft. Imported from Spain. Would make beautiful ornaments. And check out the pockets on the fabric holiday shopping/gift bags by Karen in the sidebar at right.
Quick and easy tags for your gifts (or as ornaments). Buy all the components or just the piece you want.
- A new collage sheet, with 12 lovely holiday images from vintage Santas to classic Madonna paintings to elves and children, printed on a velvety 60# cardstock.
- Really large (2-1/4" diameter) metal-rimmed tags. Sold in sets of 12. The gold edging on some of the samples was colored using a metallic leafing pen.
- A HUGE round paper punch (2-1/8" diameter). Be warned: you need some hand strength to use this punch...
New Rubber Stamps
Angels we have heard on high...
Beautiful set of woodcut angels and blackletter text. Also includes some 16th century music. Good background/texture stamps.
Madonna
From the Italian Renaissance. A lovely image, surrounded by putti.
Aurora
Aurora is the goddess of dawn in Roman mythology. She renews herself every morning and flies across the sky, announcing the arrival of the sun. She has two siblings, a brother (Sol, the sun) and a sister (Luna, the moon).
Misc. Holiday Items
Die-Cut Printed Gift Boxes. Beautiful printed boxes to put together (the pages are printed on both side with coordinating patterns so your boxes will be pretty on the inside, too). Large 12" x 12" book with 24 pages. Little coordinating tags and other embellishments included, too. Includes 11 ready-to-use boxes, 16 gift cards, tags and envelopes, and more than 100 embellishments. Die cut and scored so just pop them out and you're ready to fold.
St Nick Double-Sided Paper Set. Two double-sided 12" x 12" heavy 65# sheets. A charming, vintage Victorian Christmas paper set.
Set of 6 Victorian Christmas Postcards. Embossed and embellished with metallic gold. Reproductions of vintage postcards.
