Wowee - what truly Fabulously Crafty Friends we are blessed to have here at Cuddly Buddly Crafts. I received piccies of this charming concertina tag card that Edna has made and loved her project immediately … what a delightful way to pass on the main events of the true Christmas story from one generation to another.

Edna has used a variety of our stamps, coloured the images and attached them to her base card. She’s created the scripture tags on her computer and then printed them out and hand finished them with coloured card, eyelets and narrow ribbons and tucked them neatly into their little pockets. If you would like to know more about how Edna has created her card please join us on our friendly forum where I’m sure she’ll be only too happy to share with you the ‘how to’s’ of how it was done!
More projects by Edna and our other Fabulously Crafty Friends Gail and Sonia can be seen in our Gallery.

We are blessed here at Cuddly Buddly Crafts to have the most Fabulously Crafty Friends and this morning as I opened my email I was in for such a visual treat that I felt we should shine the Spotlight On Gail and share with you all the exquisite concertina Christmas Card that she created for her Grandson. Gail has used a selection of our rubber stamps and a paper from our ‘Let it Snow Papers’ downloads to produce this frosty winter scene.

Sixteen new ‘Santa’s Workshop’ rubber stamps have been added. The stamps work well on their own or can be used together to create fun little scenes for your greetings cards and scrapbooking pages … for example, Robbie and Emmy Elves pushing can be used with the Toy Train and Dolly’s Pram stamps … while the Toy Train and Dolly’s Pram stamps could also be coloured in pastel shades and work independently on New Baby projects. Little Santa looks quite comfortable stood in front of the Fireplace or Christmas Tree and Mrs Santa could dress in her everyday colours and bring out the tea tray throughout the year!
We’ve also added a few new bits to the shop … Adirondack Pigment Ink Pads, Ranger Ultra Thick Embossing Powders, Sakura Ultra Fine metallic pens, the new Bind-It-All Covers, Closures and Owires and a few more of the pretty Starform Transparent Glitter Peel Offs.
