Still here

I am afraid I have become one bad blogger, not that I ever was good!
But today, just before Christmas Eve, I wanted to share this year's Christmas card. It is simple but as i lacked inspiration for my own projects (all it is used for my Sizzix job!) I founf that quick and simple is always a good idea.

I used eCAL to design the motif and then I die cut it using the eclips. I am in love with that machine the cut is amazing and the eCAL gives me the freedom to design anything. LOVE it!

December...

Usually when it hits mid November things are quiter for the crafters, but not for the Sizzix designers. A lot of new things in preparation for the new year need to be done in November and December so I am unusually busy for a crafter. But loving it and grateful for it.

But it means that any crafty personal things take back seat, like this blog and my Christmas cards. I am not sure that i will get time to make any!

Wish me luck and energy so I can make them.

Until I have time for personal crafty projects, visit the Sizzix blog.

Child friendly card

Today I have posted a tutorial on how to make this card. Yes it is not a earth shattering new technique, but it is a great what to craft with children just using white card some cream chalks and your finger tips!

PS: Have you seen the new Framelits? Seriously they are the best wafer thin dies that I have ever used because of the position of the blade. If you think I am biased because I work for Sizzix I wont blame you, instead watch this video by a retailer in the USA (who also sells other manufacturer's) not only she is a big fan of the Framelits but also explains why they are so good.
