Christmas Snowflake Gift Tags

Hello stampers! Time sure fly by fast. It is Christmas already. Hope you got all your shopping done. One year I didn't and had to shop on Christmas Eve. The mall was so busy. It was not a good idea at all.

I was asked to make some gift tags for the treats for the Christian School kids. This was what I made, a snowflake ones. The kids did a wonderful job performing the Christmas play on Sunday night and each one of them received a yummy treat bag for their job well done.

I stamped the snowflakes using the Festive Flurry stamp set and then die cut them using the Festive Flurry Framelits Dies. I put a blue rhinestone in the middle of each snowflakes. The sentiment is from the Sprinkled Expressions stamp set and then was punched out using the Word Window punch. The snowflakes were nicely tied to the bags. All the kids love it, the treats I mean.

Happy Holidays! Thank you for stopping by!

Vintage Money Envelopes

I made these envelopes for my sister. Instead of giving the kids gift cards she is going to give them money.

She wanted a vintage look envelopes so this is what I came up with.  I think it might be too fancy for the kids.

Thank you for visiting today! Have a wonderful weekend.

 2. Accordion fold the designer paper pieces. Make sure the ends of the designer paper pieces are facing down. Set these aside.

3. Use a pencil and mark 2 lines at 2-1/8" and 2-3/8" on the short side of the card stock.

4. Draw 2 lines as shown in photo. This is the tree base.

5. Cut off the sides.

6. Draw curve lines on the tree base. Starting from the bottom draw a line about 1-5/8" from the bottom edge. Draw the other 4 lines decreasing 1/4" measurement. The lines doesn't need to be perfect. They will be cover up by the designer papers.

7. Starting at the bottom line first and add hot glue to it.

 8. Adhere the 2" x 8-1/2" designer paper to the line.

 12. Turn to the back of the button and add hot glue to the centre of the button.

 13. Adhere the button to the top of the tree with hot glue. Embellish the tree. This tree is flat on the back and it shows the Gumball Green card stock.

optional: You can make another set of the designer paper pieces and add it to the back of the tree to hide the back.


You're done! Enjoy making the tree. I love to hear from you and if you make it I love to see it too.

Christmas Tree Ornament

Hello, stampers! I thought I took a little time off creating for the 12 days Christmas projects to create this for you to see. I have this idea while I was making the tutorials for the event.

It didn't turn out the way I wanted it but it is still nice. I'll go into more details  or make a tutorial if anyone is interest to know how to make it. It'll be the next week or so before I can get around to it.

Thank you for stopping by!

Vintage Christmas Ornament

Good day! Hope you are having a wonderful day! This summer seems to be busy for me. I'm hardly at home. I finally have the chance to create something.

I was so excited when Stampin'Up!  sent me the Holiday Mini Catalogue. I love the ornament on the cover so I ordered the Ornament Keepsakes Bundle that have the stamp set and the framelits when it was available to order.

I case the ornament on the cover of the catalogue. I did mine in kraft colour. I added the Scalloped Tulle Ribbon to the ornament. The rosette in the middle was made with satin ribbon and the tutorial can be found here. To make the ornament look pretty I added a pearl in the middle.

I'm going to make lots of these as Christmas gifts and maybe sell them too.

Thank you for stopping by!

Pennant Ornament

I was playing with the Petite Pennant Builder Punch and I came up with this ornament. Isn't it cute? It is about 3" in length and hang nicely on my Christmas tree. I'll have to try it in different colours.

I added mini flowers to each pennants and 2 flowers hanging on gold cords. I think snowflakes goes nicely on each pennants.

I'm off to make some projects for the Ladies Christmas Tea. My friend and I are hosting a table and we have been busy making stuff to decorate the table. It is this Saturday and I'll take tons of pictures to show  you of the other tables.

Thank you for stopping by!

Happy Stamping!
