This XCut 3D Robin would make some great place settings for your table on Chistmas Day.

XCut Christmas Wreath

This has been made using the new XCut Wreath Die Set.
There are lots of components to this one and is is great to build up the layers as much, or as little as you like.  I've used sticky foam pads to make it quicker but you could use Pinflair Glue Gel to really make the most of the shaping of the decorations.

Happy Christmas Crafting!

XCut Christmas Decorations...

XCut have brought out some great new dies to make your very own Christmas decorations.


These are best cut out of cardstock, and stick them as you go.  I made the mistake of trying to put them together without any glue and just as I got near to the end, it all fell apart!!  I won't repeat what I said!!! Both these decorations have been made using the XCut Christmas Decoration die which retails at £12.99, but is available from Crafty Devils at ONLY £9.99.  There is a third decoration that can be made from this set too so it is really good value for money.  Looks great made out of glitter card, but how about using last years Christmas cards for a really 'up-cycled' Christmas!

Happy Christmas Crafting!!
