Christmas Card With Gift

Hello My Dear Cakettes,

It's been a while since my last template, but here's another one especially for you!!

This is just another Christmas project I have created a template for.. It's basically a card with a gift, the gift being the tea candles...

 

I have made this project quite some time ago, but I have since seen red glittery tea candles, which would have been perfect for this card... Oh well.. Still looks really cute and makes for a super sweet gift..

 

To make sure I covered the lines from the template I have made an insert!!!

 

The ribbon is just some extra embellishment..

So by now you are probably guessing that if a template is involved, then you are probably going to be able to get a copy for free right?

Well GOOD NEWS!!!!!

Just like my previous templates I will be sharing the files for this box with my sweet Cakettes!!! YEEEIIII!!! :)

And of course once again it is FREE!!!!

Just remember in case you haven't seen my previous free template post here is how it works.. Because it's a template I have designed myself I am happy to share with all of my subscribers and followers.. You can download it and use it as many times as you would like..

My Handmade Christmas Cracker Template

Ho Ho Ho Cakettes!!!!

   A couple of years ago, my Christmas tree decoration theme was metallic greens, purples, pinks and blues. Yes I do change the theme every year..

   Anyway, I wanted tiny little Christmas crackers to match, so I decided to create my own templates so   that I could make my own...

So this is what the crackers looked like...

Okay.. So they are a little bright..

But it did match my decoration... :)

And the best part is, you can add whatever you want inside them.. I chose Ferrero Rocher just because they are so yummy!!!

So this year I have decided to revisit my old template and create these little crackers to decorate my Christmas table...

Of course I had to use my favourite Christmas paper collection at the moment, the noel collection by Dovecraft.

   I believe this is a collection which was released last year, but I have been in love with it since...
   Everything I love about Christmas is in these papers.. From traditional Christmas scenes to snowflakes to vintage looking Santas.. Gotta love it...

    So when I designed the template, I had only designed the hexagonal shaped cracker but this year I have altered my original template so that i can have a traditional rounded cracker too.. So I've ended up with two templates.

   I think this year's Christmas crackers turned out really cute..

So this if the hexagonal shaped cracker, it's the first template I made all of those two years ago.. :)

The distressed edges give it more of a vintage look which I thought was perfect for the paper...

The glittery paper also helps with the final look. Love glitter!!! :)

And then of course, the traditional shaped crackers.. Simple rounded shape...

Still very cute though...

Snowflakes in a red "christmassy" paper.. Just beautiful....

And of course, the candy cane stripes.. who doesn't love those?

   So here's the good news!!!!! Just like my previous templates I will be sharing the files with my beloved Cakettes!!! YEEEIIII!!! :)

And of course once again it is FREE!!!!

   So Just in case you haven't seen my previous free template post here is how it works.. Because it's a template I have designed myself I am happy to share with all of my subscribers and followers.. You can download it and use it as many times as you would like..

Christmas Stocking Advent Calendar

Hello Cakettes!!!

If like me you just love christmas, you probably like to count down the days until this very special time of the year.. So to help me and my husband to do that and have a little treat along the way, I have made us an advent calendar....

Of Course if I owned a sewing machine I would probably have done this with fabric, just because it would have been more durable, but for now I think paper will do the job just fine... :)

I wanted to be able to add a little treat to each day so this is what I have designed...

I have designed a template for the stockings, it consists of three parts, the stocking itself, the "fold" on top of the stocking and the "pocket".

   The plan is to have this "rope" of stockings wrapped around a christmas garland and decorate around the room. Right now it is too soon to decorate the house, so I guess I'll have to wait untill I can do that, but I am sure it will look very nice.

I have placed the stockings in an ascending order of numbers, but you could place the numbers randomly which would also be a lot of fun!!!!

In the last stocking I wrote XMAS using glitter glue, I just thought it needed extra sparkle as it is the day I look forward to the most through out the year.

And of course in this picture you can see that I can fit a small treat in each pocket.. Yum!! :)

To be able to do that, I have used a small cellophane bag between the stocking and the "pocket" cover

I'm pretty sure there are many different ways to do this, you just have to find the one works best for you...

So by now you are probably guessing that if a template is involved, then you are probably going to be able to get a copy for free right?

Well GOOD NEWS!!!!!

Just like my previous templates I will be sharing the files for this box with my sweet Cakettes!!! YEEEIIII!!! :)

MASSIVE CHRISTMAS SALE

Yes! That's right, I am having a MASSIVE SALE on my Zibbet store!!!

 http://www.zibbet.com/craftsdotcupcake

You know how shops usually have their sales right after christmas and it makes you wish that you could have bought your presents then..?

Well, I don't think that's fair.. I believe we should all be able to get great discounts BEFORE Christmas so that we can save some $$$ when we're buying presents...

And for that reason I have decided to have a Massive sale on my Zibbet Store!!! The sale is a MASSIVE 20% OFF every single item!!!!

This sale will be on from now until the end November (2011),  The only thing to remember is stocks are limited so if you like something I suggest you "go and get you some" because when is gone is gone!!!

You do not need any special codes, the discount is already applied all over the store!!!!

Enjoy this early christmas present from Me to You!!! :)

Have a Fab Day!!!

xoxo
