Tonic Create & Make #5 - Buzzy Bag Gift Box :D

Here's my Up Close video for Tonic Create & Make #5 The Buzzy Bag! this dinky little die set creates a gorgeous large gift bag/box that can have a bee theme to go with the hexagonal shape, or can be completely unrelated to bees! And of course the decorative portions and basic shapes are fabulous for your cards too! :D  

And for the corresponding Tutorial video I have shown how to create a multi-aperture shaker card, I don't think I've filmed a proper tutorial on it before and I think it's a great step up from a regular shaker card, so I'm hoping you enjoy seeing it :D xxx

Tonic Showcase #44 - Amazing Aperture Box :D

Here's my Up Close video for Tonic Showcase #44 The Amazing Aperture Box, which is a nice versatile one that you can use in the intended way, leave the side flaps off, or just keep it as an open vessel for a flower too... And of course it has some gorgeous decorative panels for use on your cards as always :D

And for the corresponding Tutorial this month, I thought I'd show my cheats way of doing in-laid die-cutting when you have tiny little pieces in your patterned dies :D Hope you find it helpful :D xxx

CRaFTi Advent 2023 :D

This post is a little different, but it's the one I will link to on all of my Advent videos this year to give you a little info :D  

So all these videos are old ones that have been lurking on a hard drive for years! I might not sound quite as cheery in them as I was quite depressed when I filmed some of them, but I'm sure they'll have some useful info in them, and they are packed full of cards and projects that might inspire you! I asked on my Facebook page if you would be interested in my using these old videos for Advent and it was a resounding yes, so even though you might not be able to buy a lot of products anymore, you might have them in your stash, or something similar :D I have plenty of old videos to use up, but if I get a chance I will of course film a few new ones to sprinkle in too :D And there'll be the usual Tonic videos for the month as well!

I won't do a separate product list for each video as a lot of the products aren't available, so instead, here's a list of all the online shops I'm affiliated with and if you'd like to do any shopping, I'd very much appreciating you using my links to do so :D 

Hope you have a wonderful December and Christmas!! Christine and Pumpkin xxx
