Jingle Bells Card

This is an idea I had a couple of years ago, I even located the die in the US, but when it arrived it was put in a drawer to gather dust.
Well today I finally got it out and I am so pleased with how it’s turned out and now wish I had used it sooner!
jingle bells
The die is Sizzix – Shadow Box Upper Case J No. 38-0457
J die
I am sorry there is no name on the paper I have used. The bells are taken off a fancy bit of trimming I’ve also had for ages and the writing is my own.  Simple and cute.

    Love these cards. I want a sissix thing! Can you recommend yours? I don't know what to get.

    I love the hand writing. I was watching a program on QVC probably and the lady did some amazing things just by writing.

    LOVE these 'J' cards and your writing ...may have to use the idea and have a go at the writing too. I tried it once but it looked like a drunk spider had put her leg in an ink pot lol

    Hi Sam

    I had a cuttlebug for a couple of years and loved it, but I sold it on ebay to fund a Bigshot because I saw the fantastic XL Boxes Sizzix were bringing out and needed a bigger machine. The bigshot is great and takes all my dies (not that I have a lot)

    Having said that I have asked santa for a Sizzix sidekick for my small dies just as it would be more convienent when working at my desk.

    My big regret - selling my cuttlebug alphabets!!!

    Hi I popped over to your blog as I noticed someone had visited my blog via your blog.
    Next time I update my blog list I will add your one to it.
    I love the Jingle Bells cards you have made. Also like the triangle tree ones.

    Thanks Helen, I think the Big Shot it is for my first machine. Seems to be more versatile and robust from reading lots of comments online.

Thank you for wanting to leave a comment. I HATE verification and apologise for the extra bother it causes, however, if I don't have it I get all sorts of dubious spam added and the comments would be bogged down utter ***p!

Occasionally I get comments on posts from several years ago, again, I have to apologise, copies of TEMPLATES etc. that I once offered are now NO LONGER AVAILABLE, when my last computer died, I lost everything and decided not to replace any them.
