Twas the Night Before Christmas Card
Hi crafters! Here's a lovely card using parts of the Twas The Night Frame. You can easily cut it up to use whatever pieces of it you desire.
The finished dimensions are 6" x 7 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
Hi Sue I always find these designs warm and homey, those dangling boots can't help but make you smile. A great card for a little one's Christmas or adding one of your new mini expressions a festive time new home. Wish I had this collection, yet another to save for. Enjoy your day xxx
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, so look forward to seeing your video's and this one is no exception, brilliant, all those little pieces fitting together, and love Santa's legs hanging down the chimney. ha ha.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Hi Sue. What a lovely humorous touch with Santa coming down the chimney. I would add some glitter to it as, for my taste, I always love some sparkle at Christmas.
Good Morning Sue. A lovely Christmas card which I am sure is aimed at our little members of the family. See thier faces when santa gets stuck up the chimney. We used to sing this song to our two boys when they were very little and our youngest used to cry every time we got to the chorus. It was so funny... Ahhhh the memories... Lovely card and video Sue. Thankyou. Sending best wishes to everyone. Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds.
Hi Sue - this card really captures the fun of Christmas and would bring a smile to many faces, especially the little ones. Sending best wishes YvonneMayxx
Hello Sue Bought loads of your beautiful products yesterday at the NEC so much better than buying on line I squirrel some money away each week ready and I am like a child in a sweet shop. Love todays card so much fun.
Hi Sue and lovely wilsonettes x Fantastic card Sue x really makes me smile x this would be great for the guys x looking forward to seeing the video later x thankyou Sue x Theresa w in Berks xxx
Good morning Sue and all. A truly great card today and the video is great too. I wonder how many of our little ones have never seen a chimney so it could lead to a history lesson as well. (joking of course.) I love the way you cut away at the cards to get the bit you want and will have to take another look at the video to see what you have cut. My vision may not be up to it but I will try. Hope you have a great week-end. Marie P.
Hi Sue this is a gorgeous card I just love those dies. That poem made one of our family Christmas traditions. Have a great weekend. Take care. Hugs Jackie
Hi Sue, I love this fun card and your video shows clearly how you have achieved it. The frame die was on my very long list of your new Christmas dies but sadly it didn't make the cut, maybe Santa himself will bring it for me to use next year.
Hi Sue, A lovely card, I love the Twas the Night set. I missed yesterday's offerings and have just checked, I love both but my outright favourite is the first one with the robin on. Lot of love from Patricia xx
Hi Sue Love it - fab card. Definitely want to give this one a go. Going away tomorrow for a week so not sure how much I will be able to comment - I’ll try x Crafty hugs PP Yvonne X
