5 Un-Christmasy cards to make with Hobbycrafts Pa Rom Pa Pom Pom collection



OK so who else was a little surprised (and slightly horrified) to hear that Hobbycraft had released their Christmas paper collections in June?

Now don't get me wrong, I love Christmas as much as the next person and spend most of my year planning for it. But to release your Christmas collection a full 185 days (over 6 months by the way) is just touching on the ludicrous.

If you haven't started thinking about your Christmas crafts yet (good for you), then here are 5 cards you can make with the new Hobbbycraft Pa Rom Pa Pom Pom collection. And we guarantee there isn't a snowball or Santa hat in sight.




Take the polar bear felt cut out, give him some cool shades and he makes an awesome card topper for any cool dude.


Use PVA to glue the pom poms to the card. This also makes a great moving house card (just substitute the person for a house).


This simple Happy Birthday card was made using the small presant papers in the card kit as well as some cut out from the larger 12" x 12" papers.


I love this Llama. The backing paper came from a selection at Hobbycraft and the Speech bubble was made using Picmonkey


Need a card to pop the question? Use the flamingo in the "card set" and trim the winter boots into sassy heals before adding it to the card. Add self adhesive gemstones for a little extra bling and they won't be able to say no.

Music to craft too


I love music.

All music, all kinds, all genres.

I have made a playlist on Spotify of the music that I love to listen to while I'm crafting.

I would love to know what music you listen to?
