This is the third card from the monthly bundles freebies. I have used the snowflakes background stamp from yesterday again but this time behind the white main image on the card. I have also used the hoho background stamp from two days ago blog post to make the background to the main image.  This time I have stamped the sentiment 'tis the season' and adhered it to the side of the image for a bit of quirkiness! I have not finished yet with this bundle so check back tomorrow for the sweet little gift box with lid. TIP: If you are making a whole stack of these cards and gift boxes it is worth making a whole bunch of candy canes and bows to rearrange on the top of your cards. Having a pile of images will also give you lots more design options to play with. Have fun with changing the cards around. JoP x

Yesterday I featured one of the cards from my monthly bundles offer. Today is another great all-round card to make using the bundle and the freebies I send to you when you buy the bundle from me. This card uses the snowflake background stamp in the set. I have stamped it in pool party ink and the candy canes I have stamped using a combination of the words and the striped stamps red ink. I have stamped over the words with the outline candy cane stamp in black ink. The bow as before in pool party ink with an outline stamp in black ink. I love the detail in this bow. All are punched using the candy cane punch.  I have mounted the canes onto some of the flocked striped designer series paper called 'Santas Workshop' and then mounted this again onto red card (poppy parade). Then mount onto a red base card.  I really like the simplicity and boldness of this set and there is one more design I want to show you tomorrow. JoP x
