Chatterbox & Metallic



Early Chatterbox paper is a great weight for teabag folding. I've been going through my stash and creating. I combined the old Chatterbox with the new midnight metallic paper and absolutely love it. I even had a few Chatterbox quotes for the inside of my cards.

More Christmas Tree Cards





Just look what happens when you keep the same style, but change the paper. Everything seems to change. I used the same technique as described earlier in my Green Christmas Tree Post. This time I used my corner punch for the mat and used coordinating paper for the large mat. The light colored tree is made from Heidi Grace papers that are shimmery and have some sparkle. I added red rhinestones to finish off the project. Then I came across my favorite Christmas paper from last year by Daisy D's and had to try my hand at it again. The bold paisleys really change the look of it. I used my Gelly Roll Stardust pens to add some glitter to the paper. I did not have rhinestones, so I bought red pearls to put on the tree. They look sharp too!

Iris Folded Cards

Oh man, I forgot how fun and easy iris folding is. I used my Cricut to cut out a Christmas ornament and then used a generic iris fold pattern from Circle of Crafters website (get pattern here). I used my corner adorner punch for snazzy matting. And one large bling for some sparkle. I love the way they turned out. I may have to make a few more. I made up about 6 kits for the local craft show this weekend. We'll see if anyone else likes them as much as I do.

Kite Fold Cards

I love making tea bag folding cards. I found a bunch of cool sites online by doing a google search for "free tea bag tiles".

The thanks card tiles are were printed from www.masikatiwebdesign.com. I added a little bling and a glittered brad, centered it on a circle then a square and added a sentiment all on a white card.


The boo card tiles were found on Heather's Tea Bag Tiles -> Larger Tiles -> Halloween. I printed different jack-o-lanterns and alternated them between plain tiles. I added orange and purple bling and a brad. I used the Cricut to cut the shadowed sentiment.

If you don't know how to fold the tiles, do a google search for tea bag folding instructions. There are great sites available. Thanks for sharing.
