Club La-La Land Crafts December Kit Inspiration

Hi everyone, welcome back! I hope everyone is enjoying their holidays. Today I'm sharing more projects using the December 2020 Kit from Club La-La Land Crafts!

The first card used the stamp set Knitting Marci. I have her sitting atop the Yarn Basket filled with the mini yarn balls in the die set.

How cute is her knitted hat? That's just the Yarn Basket turned upside down with the handles trimmed off and topped with the mini yarn ball for the pom pom. She is colored with Copic markers. I used the Large yarn ball from the Knit and Crochet Die Set. The gorgeous papers I used are from the Home For Christmas Paper Pack.

Kat Scrappiness Holiday Inspiration

Hi everyone! Have you picked up any of the new holiday release from Kat Scrappiness? Here are a few projects featuring some of the new items in the store.

For my first card, I combined the Slimline Mountain Scape Dies with the Holiday Village Slimline Border Die. I colored the village houses and trees with Copic markers. For the rooftops, I added Star Dust Stickles glitter glue. I layered the forest trees from the Mountain Scape Dies behind the village. I used the outline of the mountain die to create my shaker window. Lastly, the shaker bits used were Mirrored Clear Starlight Sequins and the White Snowflake Sprinkles.

My second card uses the Christmas Shaker Ornament Dies and Mountain Scape Slimline Dies in a not so traditional way. I made a donut shaker using the round ornament shaker die. The icing is made from the large mountain die, which I placed on the donut and top of the card. The large donut was created with several circle dies. The shaker bits are Peppermint Sticks Sprinkles, Chocolate Sprinkle Donut Sprinkles and Santa Baby! Sprinkles.

My last card features the Stitched Layered Christmas Tree Die and the Wrapped Up With A Bow Slimline Dies. Santa's mustache is made up of two pieces of the Christmas tree dies. I added a wooden embellishment for the nose. I used the ribbon strips from the bow die to help create Santa's belt along with the small square die in the set. The shaker bits are Jolly Sweet Sprinkles and Peppermint Swirl Sprinkles.

I placed Marcia atop a snow hill using the Snow Banks Die. Behind her I created a winter village bubble scene using the Winter Houses and Snow Banks Die. The house dies and background were cut from the Blue Christmas Paper Pack. Marci was colored with Copic Markers. I added some clear glitter to the house roofs. I also adhered mini white foam balls and shaped it into a heart on the sled. The sentiment "I love you snow much!" is also from the Marci with Sled Stamp Set.

Kat Scrappiness November Release - Day 1

Hi everyone! Get ready for the holidays. Here are some cards featuring products from the

Kat Scrappiness November Release.

This card is dedicated to all the Disney lovers out there. The brand new Christmas Shaker Ornament Dies are fabulous. I used the circle ornament to mimic Mickey Mouse's iconic head. This coordinated perfectly with the Magical Holiday Sprinkles, which include Mickey shaped heads in white and red. The paper is part of the release as well, Cuppa Christmas Slimline Paper Pad, perfect for slimline cards and as well as other smaller sized cards.

Here is the video over at the Kat Scrappiness YouTube Channel

Next card I have for you is using the Forest For The Trees Slimline Die. This makes a scenic woodland backdrop for your cards. The gorgeous paper is from Sugar Plum Fairies Slimline Paper Pad and coordinates well with the Sugar Plum Fairies Sequin Mix.

The colored trees are from the Merry Critters Stamp Set. You'll also notice some Kat Scrappiness Tools featured in the photos. There is an Embellishment Tool, an Embellishment Tray and the Sequin Organizer. All products used are listed below.
