Fran has had a chance to play with both Christmas ranges from Kaiser. She has made a variety of projects, cards and scrapbook pages using these two new ranges.
And a quick little step by step to make gorgeous sweet bags:
Cut your paper into 4″x 6″.
Turn over and add adhesive to both the long sides and one short side.
Make into a cylinder as shown – then take off the adhesive of one end and close shut.
Fill with treats of your choice then stick the other end closed.
Very very quick and simple and a great way to use up scraps

One of my friends introduced me to these sweet little doilies that she had received as a gift from the US. They were so cute I was determined to hunt them down and bring some into the store:

Georgia has a new step by step for you!
Materials
- white and kraft cardstock
- Basic Grey Olivia papers – Amelia, Ashlyn & Eliza
- Basic Grey Olivia Canvas tags
- American Crafts Dear Lizzy fabric paper – Friendly Finch
- October Afternoon Cherry Hill stickers
Not pictured;
- Websters trims
- American crafts thickers
- Buttons
- Various Martha stewart and fiskars border punches
- Hat pin
- Sassafras Lass flowers
Step 1 – Trim the kraft cardstock to 10 inch x 11 inch and use a border punch to scallop the top and bottom edges. Cut strips of patterned paper to various sizes and use a different border punch on each one.
Step 2 – Peel off just the fabric layer of the dear Lizzy fabric paper making sure you remove all of the paper backing.
Step 3 – Stick the kraft cardstock to your white cardstock base at a slight angle and stitch a line across the top and bottom. Attach your pieces of patterned paper randomly across your kraft background and place your photos to the middle right hand side of page. Use the fabric to form a ruffle under your photo and machine stitch to keep it in place.
Step 4 – Stick a hat pin through the fabric ruffle and attach one of the basic grey canvas tags using baker’s twine or string. Place some random stitches in various coloured threads around the page. Scatter some buttons and other small embellishments (I’ve used some October Afternoon stickers and Sasafrass Lass flowers.)
Step 5 – Place your title using a few different thickers so it overlaps your photo slightly. Add some Websters trims to your page and secure with either stitching or staples.
All done!

Kaiser’s Christmas lines have just arrived in store. Two paper ranges with co-ordinating embellishments, new mini and tiny stickers, new MDF off the page items and new flourish/bauble items.
Please note that large Flourish Tree (SB2076) stands at 60cm in height, 48cm wide and is also very heavy and hence requires special packaging for postage, not to mention sizeable postage charges for me! Once this item sells out – it will no longer be available at this store – so first in best dressed!
Be Merry
‘Tis The Season
Mini and Tiny Stickers – these contain upper, lowercase, numbers and punctuation
