Festive Friday 2025 #26

Half way through my challenge to make every Friday a Christmas themed project and ahead of my Christmas in July series I went for simple!

Obviously they aren’t actually that simple because of all the sewing – but because these were already die cut, sewn and assembled it was just a case of choosing how to add them to a card with layers etc and a second sentiment added (again these are premade sentiments so simple!).

Probably took my about 15 mins to make these two for this final stage – but let’s ignore all the time I spent sewing them probably at some point last year! 🤣

I kept this one so simple with just two panels (one of which has been lightly embossed – I didn’t get the right sandwich for my die cut machine for this yet!) and then a kraft card blank.

The sentiment is a foiled one from the stash I made a couple of weeks ago (I do bulk making of sentiments or foiling whenever I can to save time!)

This one is one of the remaining pieces of the paper I used a few weeks ago and is a small slimline – perfect for this tall slim focal point!

I added the foiled cardstock behind the plain green to add interest and again one of those foiled sentiments.

Love how these came out as finished cards and how easy it was for me to make – essential as I am in the thick of planning for Christmas in July and have 31 festive projects I am trying to get planned, and then some are already filmed ready to go! I’m in the nervous state now wondering why I challenge myself to do these things!

Ah well – another festive Friday done and dusted!

Happy crafting!
