 Hi everybody, Sam here and I am so excited to have some lovely, wonderful, I'm going to say Trimcraft goodies because that's what you will all know it as being and it used to be my what's in the box videos. Trimcraft have now changed their name so they are now known as Craft Label and I will link their website below. So under the brand Craft Label will be all of the names that you're familiar with. So Dovecraft, Fest Edition, Simply Creative, Nova, you've got Spin which is their yarns, there's lots more as well. There's something about having the Trimcraft stuff it was like a big hug when the parcel landed through my door and the guys are just so lovely and yeah I would hate to not be able to work alongside them. So what I thought I would do is show you've got piles all around me and as always I'm so you know thankful for what they send me and this is now it's like the proper kickstart to my Christmas because I want to work a lot of this with my product so my lovely stamps I've already got some kind of plans on how I want to do this and I'm going to do some just Trimcraft only ones as well so just make some lovely you know projects just using this collection for example and so on. Now if you watch this video at the end I will have a really nice discount code for you so hold on for that I'll go through all the the gump that goes alongside that but first of all let's get into the first collection so this one here is all what they've sent me actually because I don't have full collections of everything but this is Winter Sparkle. Now if you have been a fan of Dovecraft for some years you would have probably remembered the Happy You collection it's basically that but christmified it's it's just been turned into a Christmas collection it's beautiful it's so lovely so first of all if we go through all of the accessories so you've got these wonderful little frames how cute are they now I've kept it in the plastic because they're loose inside so but hopefully there's not a lot of glare there anyway so they're not self-adhesive so you just add a little bit of glue to the back of them but this one has that lovely rose gold with the snowflake detail there and you get eight frames in that pack then you've got these ones here these are very pretty so you get two wooden shapes and they've got little hearts on them there we go if I just bring that up there and you should be able to see the little hearts either end isn't that adorable and again you could pop that in the middle of that frame that's sweet so you get two wooden shapes in that one then you've got these ones here so you this one you get six wooden shapes and these are deer heads yeah if I just bring it up can you see how cute they're very different so you get six of them and you can easily pop some foam tape on the back of then you've got buttons really really nice to get loads in there actually get 60 buttons in the rose gold then you get the bows these are actually the same ones I believe that when they done the happy you collection so they've just brought them out again 16 mini bows and I did use them a lot and they're that nice dinky size a lot of bows when I handmade them they're much much bigger but these are just nice and small just to finish off that little detail that you need then here you've got 12 printed tags you've got a variety of designs so you get three of each and you've got this kind of ornate kind of design which is great to stamp a sentiment in and then just pop that onto your present if you're wrapping something or you could put this onto a card but you get the plane with that just kind of peachy colour frame and then you've got that rose gold glittery frame and then you get three in the oval it's beautiful glitter that one and it's all non-shared as well it's no glitter anywhere and then you've got that kind of peachy creamy colour there as well I mean you could layer them up so you could have that one behind stamp on this one and then have that kind of poking out the bottom which looks nice but you get 12 of the tags then you get these ones here and these are metal embellishments they always do lovely metal embellishments and these are little snowflakes I'm just seeing yeah that's just the wire through there so you can just pop some thread through there and kind of tie them with a little bow or you could put some hot glue behind that and attach it to your card but again you could just you know have one of them hanging off the tag which would look really cute you get eight snowflake charms like I said they are yeah they're metal little charms they're really cute and then you get your sentiment toppers now there are there is also some ribbon and something else but it's sold out already so but this is little yeah little toppers you've got festive love cozy little christmas merry christmas warm wishes warm wishes cozy little christmas and then festive love and merry so they're basically they repeat but on different shapes so that's the repeat there that's a repeat that's a repeat oh they're the same but then that's different as well so yeah eight sentiment toppers and then the papers the best bit for me is the papers really really lovely I've already opened up the sides and had to look through so I'm going to pop it on its side here oh yeah you get 36 sheets three sheets of 12 designs acid and lingon free so perfect for your scrapbook layouts and 150 gsm so and I always use the front as well because you can use you know that there would be a mat layer you know on a landscape kind of card and this actually you've got all of this sorry that's not stuck over the top so use this it makes a lovely background okay so we have this gorgeous rose gold star paper there then you have this one here isn't that beautiful cozy little christmas festive love so basically is these these sentiments that they've put on here but that's wrapping paper for me that would wrap something really you know obviously something a bit smaller but you could stick two of them side by side you know if I take that one off there we could certainly stick them together and then obviously wrap something a bit bigger but that's yeah I love that and then I know some of you would if you have this you'll probably just stroke it or buy two and have one that you just keep and look at and the other one you use and you have this one here which has that sparkle through some of the stars really really pretty look at this one oh again it's all non-shed and it's it's tactile you know you can feel it's almost like felt it kind of reminds me of that felt that you used to have as children you know you kind of create little scenes so you've got three of those and then you've got that nice background one there see when I look at it in the monitor I just see lots of diamonds but then when I look down at it I see the snowflakes in the hexagons it's kind of plays with my eyes this one so then you have your christmas trees quite a contemporary style there and then some more snowflakes with that pinky background this is nice again if you want to do a festive scene or maybe you're doing like a shadow box or a diorama card you know this could be your background and then you build up your scene in front of it would look really nice and then you have this one here with the two dears kissing and these are great to fussy cut you can do some pretty cards and things with those and then you have a nice background there with just different christmas trees and some stars and then I believe the last one is again just another background one which is again it's very modern kind of style I guess they're trying to look like maybe christmas trees or mountains or something or they could just be little arrowheads it's entirely up to you oh no sorry there is one more it's another pretty one there really nice so that is the pattern that will also come in eight by eight I don't think there's six by six but again check the links below because you may prefer a smaller size but that's what I have from for the new winter sparkle dovecroft collection then I have these two new fest edition paper pads these are eight by eight I believe they also come in 12 by 12 I'm not sure about six by six but again check the links that I have shared so I've got the north star and almost christmas so we'll start with the almost christmas this is very much my kind of colours I'm that traditional christmas kind of girl and there are lots of papers in here that you could use throughout the year you don't just have to use them for christmas you have 48 sheet pad three sheets of 16 designs they're 200 gsm so they're that good weight whereas it's in between that paper and card stock you know so you can use this to make envelopes with and it's great for mats and layers but you could also make 3d projects gift bags and things like that from it as well so it's a heavy weight card stock they've got there and then there's acid and lingon free so first of all you have also you get one canvas design two spot UV designs and two glitter designs and then the rest of the pad is your double sided so this one here will be the canvas and you can feel it it's got a lovely texture to it and this is that lovely plaid detail so like I said straight away you've got a paper here that isn't just christmasy then you have this one here which is the spot UV so you can see there you've got those little glittery areas and you've got little gift tags here in the mistletoe and then you have another one here that's gorgeous what a lovely background paper that one is and you've got your holly and berries there and then you have this one here which has that lovely shine on the yes on the robins and it's also on the ponsettias they're in like little wreaths again you can fussy cut them use a circle punch get some nice little designs there and you have this one gorgeous and this you could do lovely strips and have them at the bottom or the tops of your cards or just keep it as it is as a nice background then you've got this one here again great for those backgrounds and this would look great if you're going to make any of my 3d like the oh my focus has just gone there okay it didn't like that so we're going to quickly go past that one but you could use that for my she shed you know if you want to create that wood effect as the the wall or the wallpaper and things like that this is great then you've got this one here with that beautiful wreath pine cones the bows and the robins and you have that one there that lovely that rich background and you could add glitter to this as well you know usually like nuvo drops and things like that this is beautiful love that ponsettia can't wait to start using this oh and now we're on to the double-sided this is the star of the double-sided so there's that one there so they complement each other well and then you have this one with this one again you could use that all year round along with this then you have this one here and it's got kind of elements throughout the pad there you've got the robin with the mistletoe then you've got the wreath and you've got those baubles and then there's the background that lovely sky there but again they work really well together and then you have that one again you could easily fussy cut and that's the background which is the sheet music and then this one love that one again some really nice winter masculine makes I can see with this one look at that how nice are those two together oh I just can't wait to start making all my gift boxes and stuff and look at that I love a candy cane so that's really nice and that works nice with this one as well and then you've got this one here nice little sentiments with that checked plaid kind of print there and then this is kind of a yes you've got your pine cones there and like the sprigs and then this side it's like a wood grain with then it's it's kind of snowflakes so it's nice you know wintery background you've got there and then that's the end of that one is lovely really really pretty paper pad so I'm looking forward to using that one so that's almost Christmas and then I have the lovely eight by eight north star paper pad this again is printed with soy inks and you get three sheets of 16 designs acid and lingon free 200 gsm and you get one glitter design two foil designs two pearlescent designs and then half is double sided so first of all we have this beautiful one here it's actually a watercolor background and then it's got these silver kind of snowflakes or stars on the front this one here love this one look at that all those lovely shiny snowflakes and then you have this one with the stars catch the light there they're glittery those ones again it's all non-shared this is a pearlescent one you see that lovely shine again it's like a watercolor background with white snowflakes over the top and this would be nice throughout January and February just to create some really nice winter themed cards then you've got this one which is kind of a watercolor but it almost looks like it's been done using alcohol inks because this here these droplets of the this is what you get when you drip the solution into the alcohol inks so that's what I'm thinking that's been done with really nice and that's a pearlescent one and then look these adorable penguins aren't they lovely so so sweet so you get the penguins and then the next one I think is the yeah the polar bears look at that you got the little baby bear as well love them then you have this one here which is this is a chart this is wait a minute it says the chart of the south succumb polar regions succumb polar regions succumb polar regions yeah I think I'm saying it correctly showing the discovery track top note I'm not even attempting it I'm not I'm not attempting it but that's what it says it's nice yeah I'll let you guys look at that one but again great background ones there mini lap and scrapbook layouts as well because I know lots of people like to do eight by eight size you can get the little albums as well that will fit those in really nicely this is a very subtle it's almost distressed and then it has it looks like the snowflake yes the snowflake stars kind of throughout there again very very subtle but very nice then these aren't the start of your double sided so that's the double sided of that one which it looks like a very very lighter version of that one that I shared said about with the alcohol inks I think that's what that is then you got this one love that with the snow really nice that would look lovely in a shadow box with acetate with actual faux snow in it as well like a shaker card that's that would yeah I like that one that's kind of like a almost looks like brushstrokes but then it kind of looks like wood grain as well so a bit of both and then look I don't know if it is birch trees kind of looks like them lovely just start again you could create a really nice diorama you know layered card with that as your background and then the other side you get that kind of swirl like marble effect but then you have this one again just really nice backgrounds that's great with the polar bears there just a repeat pattern and then this one is a bit grungy so you've got snowflakes and then you've got stars again great for masculine makes as well you've got that one there the snowflakes oh I like that not lovely that's really really nice yeah do you like that one a lot and then this one again a bit grungy because it's kind of patchy in places with the stars and then this one's kind of like a paint brush effect again but look lovely on some nice summer kind of beach kind of cards as well it's kind of that white wash that's what I'm thinking I like that and then you've got more this blue kind of snowflakes and then that's a sweet scene the polar bear the house and the trees and then that kind of moss green background there and then that's the end of that one really nice love it and this one they're both but bring back in this one here different illustrators that have done these ones but it hasn't got their names used to have the names below so I recognize both of them from doing previous ones I'm pretty sure she works for I want to say trim craft but it's the craft label I'm just trying to have a look on the back here no I can't see anything I imagine maybe it says to scan with your smartphone that might give you some information I'm pretty sure I've recognized when I've been up there because I've visited there a couple of times I'm sure I'm wanting to say that's where I've seen her but then maybe I've seen her just through social media but anyway it does show you who's created these wonderful pads so once again that's almost Christmas and the north star and then I've got quite a lot of simply creative products so what I'm going to do first of all start with the stamps so I went a bit click happy I do like my stamps and I like sentiment stamps now what I didn't realize is there's two noels or no and one's a bit smaller than the other so depending on you know if you prefer slightly larger sentiments I mean it's not too much in the size one's obviously taller and shorter the other one is longer and not so tall but anyway choose what you wish you have them there that one has like a festive holly leaf and berry through the middle and then this one here obviously it just has some dots then we have start with these ones the larger ones here I love these just great for putting on to just a piece of white card cut it with a circle die and you have your gift tag so do not open until the 25th of December then we've got this one here happy Christmas I do have some of the dovecraft large sentiments which I love and I use them they're timeless and these will go in with them because yeah you see me use these a lot so these are the ones that you're going to see me use on a lot of my Christmas makes coming up so again lovely big happy Christmas then you also have season's greetings and then you have winter wishes that was nice because you get the little snowflakes around there as well so that's those slightly larger ones and I guess if you're looking these up just type in clear stamp and then I imagine you'll get all the different ones for winter wishes season's greetings um they've just got that one as the 25th of December and that one is Noel and then here again these ones are just clear stamps so you just put in this one's Christmas sentiments and you get peace on earth and joy to the world this one's lovely look at that cute snow globe I do like that lovely bear I think the one I had last year was the top half of his head and now they've got the full body very very sweet then you get your reindeer then we've got this one it's the most wonderful time of the year a little gift tag there then you have Christmas kisses I don't have one of them I do not have not well might have the sentiment in a different kind of layout but I don't have it a nice big size like that so that's nice and then you get a cute Christmas tree as well and then that little well there are lots more these are just the ones that I selected that I thought you know I would enjoy in their more my kind of style but um there is loads within the simply creative range oh and one more I've missed you get the stocking that's a super cute nice size Christmas stock in there and then I picked up a few dyes again there are loads of dyes but these are just some of the ones that I thought I would enjoy more and this is the dinosaur the dinosaur with the present and the hat so what I will do is die cut it in green then I'll die cut just the section of the hat in red and then I'll die cut the present it may be red and green as well and just paper piece it together and I think that's going to look super cute then you've got the little bear here with some wobbly star right headband on um yeah it just says bear and then you have another present here so again I will cut that in a few different colors and paper piece it back together and then you have a little snow globe with the Christmas tree and then you have this one here which says seasons greeting there's like a little tag you can see that's how it looks there so those are just some of the dyes but like I said there are tons on there then I selected some wooden sentiments now you're going to recognize these ones because these were out last year and I used so many of them they are wonderful toppers I'll take one out to show you bring it up there so this one has the holly leaf in the corner so that says you're happy Christmas and then that's the same but that one says merry Christmas so this is silver and the other one's the gold but I used lots of them I've done a beautiful gift box and I've done a really nice kind of little arrangement on the top and those were on there I've used them on all kinds of different gifts last year so have a look at my Christmas playlist from last year or I think it might just be under one big playlist now but you can get some ideas already on how I've used those and then these ones were new and these are wooden sentiments you get eight of them and they say merry Christmas but you can add your Versa mark and then you can sprinkle these with different coloured embossing powders and then just heat set them you can also paint them as well so yeah you can do quite a lot with them but I just thought they were quite nice and you get eight there and then I picked up let's just do these all together I'll do that one as well so I got the felt pensettias thought they were nice for gift bags tags things like that then I got some tartan bows I don't have any tartan bows and they're just adorable they are so cute so you'll see me adding those to different makes and then look really really cute little bows so your mini gift bows how nice they're going to look on cards so that's what I will probably do with those because believe it or not I still do have a fair amount of cards to make I'm giving out a lot this year so I'm looking forward to making a lot more so I've got those Merry Christmas really traditional and they're going to go nice with the almost Christmas papers there and then these ones actually will go really nice with especially the silver ones that the silver Merry Christmas ones will go lovely with these papers so I've got some of the packaging on that one let's take that out the last one left in that pack there we go so you get your golden silver or you get your red and green and they're just sentiment and then look love these ones so you've got your felt ones if you prefer that and you could probably add glitter to that but then you've also got these ones here the glitter punsettias that is some more again this is all under the Simply Creative brand and then I got some more of these so I actually had this one last year and these are your gem stickers these look lovely stuck on to acetate really really nice but then these were two I don't know if they were new I can't remember seeing them last year but I didn't have these ones so you've got your robin you've got your Rudolph and then you have your Father Christmas I do have a tutorial where I made some very over-the-top kitsch style gift tags and if I remember I'll link it up here but otherwise just type in gift tags mixed up craft and you will see those come up but that used the Santa and the ones from last year but this time you could obviously add those ones in and they do have all those past ones still on there as well so they're really nice just something a little bit different and then this was something again that I hadn't seen before and you've got a mix in fact I'll bring in this on here so this is craft dovecraft junior which I've not ever had anything of before and then here you have the Simply Creative so but they are the same thing so these are foam stickers and these are glittered foam stickers but I guess these have got more of a childlike and obviously now we have the lovely Charlie who is part of our family who's my beautiful nephew who's just started to roll over which is just adorable but I've also got my best friends little boy Ralph and some of my other friends as well they've still got young children so I just thought to have I don't have a lot of kiddy stuff in my stash so I saw these because they'd be nice to do when I do their presents and you just get I think it is just one foam have a little look yeah so it's just one piece of foam and then they are thick foam stickers but how nice is that to put on a card or to put on a gift tag and he's got little googly eyes you can see that it's very very thick so it's just something different I don't have anything like this so I wanted to give them a go I love the thick glittery stars there I mean you could use those on that lovely North Star paper pad again and these the little candy canes and that holly would you know work really well with that as well but I just thought they were very very cute so you get I think there was more as well within the junior range I mean this isn't just the only three things so we have a look if you are doing a lot of more younger children makes and check them out isn't that lovely I love the tree and then these here are puffy stickers so just fun I actually like to put these on the backs of envelopes so when I've sealed them I'll either put a wax seal and I'm going to be doing a video of me sealing all of my Christmas cards when I come to that point but these are nice to put on the you know for the kids and stuff put these on the backs they're just a nice little extra or on the front where like the stamp would go if your hand delivering them you could have this as your little stamp on the envelope I think it's a really nice extra touch and then these ones just to bring them up a bit closer you've got all the different trees there which are really cool that one's very droopy it always looks like sweater or jumper kind of arms that's what I'm seeing there but I like all of these they're nice and then here you get the elf two elves and two Santa faces and all those glittery stars so okay so that is everything thank you again to craft label
