Christmas cardmaking
The iconic image of a vintage car driving home for Christmas sits at the heart of this festive range. Retro-inspired illustrations and a cosy colour palette of fir green and candy cane red, combines with pistachio and coral tones for a fresh look.
There are die-cut toppers, decorated card blanks and comprehensive cardmaking compendiums. So, all abilities of crafter can design and craft the cutest cards that glow with warmth and nostalgia!
Here are a few ideas to get you started:
This impressive card is so simple to make! Simply pop out your chosen design from the Decoupage Pad and arrange alongside cut out pieces from the Paper Pack to craft something unique! Use one of the coloured Card Blanks as the perfect canvas for your festive creativity!
This cute card uses the Home for Christmas die set to create a vintage-style car design. Layer up different patterns from the Paper Pack to create candy cane stripes and top with a sweet sentiment to make a truly professional Christmas card.
And if you don’t have a die cutting machine, don’t worry! Just choose a design from the Assorted Toppers set – they’re pre-cut and ready to pop straight onto your card.
We’ve mentioned the Home for Christmas Paper Packs a few times, and this card puts them front and centre!
Choose from a 6″ x 6″ or 12″ x 12″ paper pack. Then cut out pieces from different patterns and arrange in your own style to create a cosy and colourful patchwork look. Top with a festive sentiment and tie with a ribbon for a fun finishing touch!
If you’re just dipping a toe into Christmas crafting, why not start by embellishing decorated Christmas cards? Simply choose your Home for Christmas card design then have fun embellishing with ribbon bows, stick on gems, pom-poms and more!
Christmas wrap and gift tags
Wrapping gifts is a cosy and fun craft activity, often with a festive film on the go and a mince pie or two for sustenance. Why not add to the fun and give more with your gifting with cute embellishments and hand-crafted tags from the Violet Studio Hme for Christmas range?
Layer up different patterns of Home for Christmas Craft Tape with sweet striped Twine and the Home For Christmas Ribbon Pack . Use with classic brown parcel paper to create an authentic and sophisticated look.
The collection features patterned gift tags, ready for you to decorate and embellish. But if you want to make your own there’s everything you need! Simply cut out a tag shape and stick on a sweet sentiment or image.
There’s a whole sleigh-full of choice, use a pre-cut topper, choose a piece from the Decoupage Pad or cut out your favourite image from a Paper Pack!
Craft a Christmas gift bag by layering up patterned paper and fun toppers. Then use ribbon to form a handle! Why not add a cute embellishment by cutting patterned paper in the shape of holly leaves?
Make your own gift wrap by stamping designs from the Clear Stamp Set onto plain paper, or dot with fluffy Pom-Poms for some colour and fun. Layer patterned paper and tie with ribbon or twine, or customise your pressies by spelling out the recipients name in stickers!
When it comes to gift wrapping, with the Violet Studio Home for Christmas collection, the possibilities are endless…
Christmas decorations
Why stop at cards and tags? Why not use your crafting supplies to make beautiful and unique decorations to hang on your tree?
This welcoming little bauble is so quick and easy to make! Just build one of the designs from the Decoupage Pad, punch a hole in the top and string with striped twine. This could also make a really adorable gift tag.
No knitting required for these mittens! Just cut out two simple mitten shapes, layer with patterned paper and decorate however you like. Then edge with ribbon and a fluffy Pom-Pom and attach together with more ribbon.
If you love nothing more than wrapping your fingers around a hot chocolate or festive coffee – why not decorate your tree to match! Just cut out a cup shape and a lid shape from card, layer in your chosen colours or patterns and add a sweet sentiment!
