Hobbycraft Christmas Haul

Who doesn't love Christmas?!
It is my favourite time of the year, I love all the sparkle, food, warm night infront of the fire and of course mulled wine.

Normally I start my Christmas cards in July but this year I am very behind schedule as I move house at the end of June and with all the unpacking and getting into a routine my crafting has fallen behind! But I am now getting back into the swing of things so I decided it was time to update my Christmas Craft collection.

I have a lot of papers and accessories from previous years that I still use but I always like to update my collection to keep my Christmas cards fresh, here is a peak at what I brought.


I am a sucker for new paper pads, my collection is getting out of hand but I can't help myself! The Hobbycraft Christmas Paper Pads are gorgeous this year, I purchased the Enchanted Christmas & Christmas Woodland but I was very tempted to buy more! I also treated myself to the Dovecraft Christmas Tales Paper pad (and some accessories) as I loved the traditional but fun feel to the range.

As well as the paper I definitely didn't need, I also stocked up on ribbon and toppers. 

What is your favourite Christmas paper pad this year?

DIY Bloom & Wonder Ideas Notebook

If you are anything like me then you will always get the greatest craft inspiration when you have no way of noting it down! I always tend to get sparks of inspiration for card making and crafting at random times, and I always forget them. To try and conquer this I decided to make myself an Ideas notebook, a small notebook that will fit in my handbag to allow me to write down these random craft ideas, making sure I don't forget them (though I may look at them later and wonder what the hell I was thinking). After a quick look through the Cricut Design Space I found a notebook shape that looked perfect, small size and easy to remove and add more pages. I decided to make the notebook using the First Edition Bloom & Wonder paper pad I had recently received from Trimcraft, it is gorgeous and I love just flicking through the paper pad so thought it might make a good inspiration sparker.
