New from Little Claire - Christmas Stamps Day 1


Today is the first day of a week of Christmas stamp releases from Little Claire - an amazing selection and definitely something for everyone.  Today, I'm showcasing 'Letters Snow' and 'Polar Hugs'.

First of all, a brand new alphabet and numbers set 'Letters Snow' which you can find here on the Little Claire website.  It's a great set for making personalised Christmas cards and those based just on text.

**SPECIAL INTRODUCTORY OFFER**

Until midday on Wednesday 8 August you can buy 'Letters Snow' for the special offer price of £10 - the RRP is £12.99!

My first card (above) is an easel card using one of the tall, slim cards.  The paper I've used is from Little Claire here and I've also used lilac card and some white Card Candi.


My second card (above) uses the same card blank but this time with some blue spotted paper, some white glitter card (which doesn't show up on the photo too well) and blue card.


The second of today's releases is called 'Polar Hugs' and you can find this stamp here on the website - isn't it cute?!  In my first card (above) I've used paper from an old Forever Friends pad, white sheer ribbon, a peel off greeting and some rhinestones.


For my second card (above) I cut round the image and then put it against a background of dark blue patterned paper from Paper Adventures.  The little sentiment is from Personal Impressions.

Have a look at the Little Claire blog here for some great inspiration from my fellow Design Team members.

There are more great releases tomorrow so make sure you keep an eye on the Little Claire website and blog.

I'd like to enter my cards in the following challenges:

Totally Papercrafts - 'monochrome' (first and second cards)
Cute Card Thursday - 'clean and simple'
Crafty Ribbons Challenge - 'seeing spots and dots' (third card)
DYSU - 'polka dots' (second and third cards)
Christmas Card Challenges - 'use something new'
Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge - 'favourite colour' (purple - first card)
Jingle Belles - 'Santa baby' (polar bears at the north pole!)
Crimbo Crackers - 'tall and thin' (second card)
