Si sa, in fiera si passa la maggior parte del tempo a dimostrare come utilizzare i più svariati prodotti, e anche quella che sembrava una banale fustella a 3 cuori della Big Shot si è rivelata utilissima per creare delle decorazioni natalizie.
Working at the fair gives you a lot of time to show the customers how you use the products you're selling, and after cutting a vast number of hearts I decided to use this 3 hearts Sizzix die to make Christmas decorations.

To create this tree you need 24 hearts, 8 for each size (big, medium and small).
A hearts die would help, otherwise you can cut them by hand, maybe involving the kids at home on the 23 december to make the place card for the Christmas table (it's only a suggestion : )

The tree is made by 3 parts, each maden by 8 hearts (same size), folded in halves and glued together back-to-back (you can see this post I came across).
Then you must attach each part on a stick, upside down, in decreasing order and glue a star at the top and strass, or glitter, or whatever.

You can make Christmas decoration in the same way, adding a ribbon in the centre.

I made those cards playing with the new Impronte d'Autore stamps (you can find them here), with the precious cooperation of Annaelle (precious bowe-ribbon maker : )


E dire che non mi è mai venuto in mente di usare il nero per i biglietti di Natale... complimenti all'autore/autrice!
This last card is not mine, rather it's my favourite card of the 'Il 150° Buon Natale Italiano' competition.
I never thought of using the black cardstock to make a Christmas card before... my compliments to the author!
Come sempre fantastica... idee strepitose (e grande anche nel suggerimento sui bimbi ... è necessario tenerli impegnati a fare qualche cosa!) ... le tue creazioni sono sempre deliziose!
