I recently ran a Christmas Big Shot Class in which the ladies made various Christmas goodies using dies and folders and the Big Shot.
One of the projects we made was this Bauble card which was inspired by a card from Andrea Lowcock who has since informed me that her inspiration came from Leonie Hegarty. I think its just wonderful how even though we are all working for the same Company we are all more than happy to share our ideas and encourage each other – something that didnt happen with other craft companies I’ve been with.
Here’s my card ….
I just love this card … its such a queasy card 😉
I simply cut the circles using the Circle Scissor Plus and used the Scallop Circle Die in the Big Shot to create the scalloped card base. The top of the ‘bauble’ was created using the Round Tab punch. You simply stamp the greeting first and then randomly stamp the snowflakes from Snow Swirled Stamp set and pop on a few adhesive rhinestones and you’re done!
It also looks awesome hanging from the Christmas Tree – do you like my new Penguin bauble? he was a new one this year 😉
I do hope you’ve finished all your Christmas preparations and can now sit back and relax. If not then I hope it all comes together smoothly (and quickly) for you.
Have a wonderful Christmas Eve

It is a wonderful world where the concept of share and share alike is upheld!! I love your bauble Leonie….very festive indeed!!! Such a different idea to send out to those whom you cherish. (BTW the penguin is v v cute!!)
I am still at my wit’s end with all that I have to do in the next 24hrs…altho I did have a giggle to myself…cause not long after reading ur Dasher post….I realised I had left myself SHORT of cards too!!! Sadly no time to rectify the boo-boo…..but I did find a couple in my stash that served the purpose…note to self….count BETTER next time.
Merry Christmas to you and yours. ooxx
