Sign up by December 31, 2020 to get this kit!

Can you believe this is the last kit of the year?!?! The December Kit is Knitting and Crochet themed! When I was a little girl I crocheted a lot, and when I was pregnant with my first child I taught myself how to knit so I could make my son some sweaters. Sooo needless to say, I was super excited about this month's kit theme! 

My first project is a planner layout in my B6 Traveler's notebook. Marci looks so relaxed and serene knitting. I colored up the kitties three different ways. I love how you can put the kitties in the yarn basket too! Isn't this layout so fun! And yes, "Knit Happens" on my weekends. LOL!

~ now for the tutorial you have been waiting for ~ 


Stamp the bear with skis and the bear sitting down onto white cardstock, color with your choice of coloring medium, and fussy cut the colored images.

Die cut two squares using the second to the largest die from the Double Stitched Squares Die Set and the blue-green background with snowflakes patterned paper.  Then on white glitter cardstock, die cut a Ski Lift and the Snow Caps. Die cut the Ski Lift with the same square die so that the ski lift would fit perfectly into the square die cut. 

Next die cut a mountain onto grey cardstock and a lake onto blue-green glitter cardstock. Die cut the mountain and lake with the second to the largest die from the Double Stitched Squares Die Set to square off the bottoms as shown in the picture below.


Die cut the outer components of the tag. Using the second to the largest die in the Large Stitched Tag Die set, die cut two tags with the Zig-Zag patterned paper. With the Zig-Zag pattern face down, adhere the 2"x2" scored square between the two tags as shown below.


Then die cut the inner components of the tag. Using the second to the largest die in the Large Stitched Tag Die set, die cut two tags with the Fair Isle patterned paper. Adhere the Fair Isle tags to the back of the Zig Zag patterned tags. Die cut the oval shaped tag reinforcement from the Large Stitched Tag Die Set onto the blue-green cardstock, die cut two in total adhere to the top of each tag.

Then die cut two pockets out of white cardstock, one pocket using the Left Pocket Die and one using the Right Pocket Die. Die cut the decorative components for the pocket dies using the Snowflake patterned paper. Then die cut the stitched labels from the blue-green cardstock. Adhere all of the components to the inside of the tag as shown below. 



Die cut two star wreaths out of light blue pear cardstock using the largest die in the Star Wreaths Die Set. Now you have all of the components for the front side of the tags! Put all of the components together as shown in the picture below and glue them together. Lastly, if you'd like, string some white ribbon through one of the tag holes and tie the ribbon in an knot.


We hope that you are inspired to try out your own creation with the amazing stamps and dies from La-La Land Crafts!

Club La-La Land Crafts - November Kit more project Inspo

Hello Crafty Friends! I'm here to show a few more projects I've created using Club La-la land Craft's November 2020 kit! Sadly November 30, 2020 was the last day to subscribe to get the kit that I've used in the projects below, but don't sweat it, you can purchase past kits with your 2nd subscription!




My first project is a fun shaker card! I love love love the bear from the kit and he's here wishing you a Beary Merry Christmas! I used the Double Stitched Rectangle die for the sentiment, it was a hair taller than I wanted, but thankfully because the die is double-stitched you can use the die to trim down the rectangle and still have the lovely stitched detail!

My next project is another shaker card, this shaker card was made using a plastic photo sleeve and a Fuse tool. I wanted to really showcase the beauty of the Marci with a Sled and the Snow Banks and Winter Houses die. It's a simple card but it's so pretty!
