A Foxy Christmas Treat Bag

Hi there & welcome to my Merry Monday blog.

In today's post I just want to show you a cute little treat bag made using Stampin Up This Christmas Designer Series Paper and the stamp set Foxy Friends.

These little treat boxes use a piece of 6x6 inch paper so you can make 4 from 1 sheet of the Speciality Designer series paper.
The finished dimension is 9cm x 4.5cm, big enough to fit Christmas treats!!

I decorated the box using the Foxy Friends stamp an Fox builder punch. Such an awesome set which you can purchase as a bundle and save 10% or purchase each on their own.

The little bow at the top is made using Copper Foil and the bow die from the Pretty Pines Thinlits Dies.

I hope you enjoyed this project. If you would like PDF instructions on how to make this treat bag, please email me and I will be happy to send them to you.

If you need any Stampin UP supplies and you don't have a Demonstrator in Australia, I would be happy to help.

There are so many ways to use our Designer Series Paper : cards, cute and cafty boxes and packaging, as background papers for Scrapbooking and Project Life, just to name a few.

Presents & Pinecones from the Holiday Catalogue

Hi there and welcome to my Merry Monday post.

Todays card features the Presents and Pinecones suite from the Holiday Mini Catalogue.
This is a set designed for the Holiday Season but many of the images can be used for any occasions.

To make this card I cut a piece of Presents and Pinecones Designer Series paper at 10cm x 10cm.
I stamped the bolder pine image in Emerald Envy over the top of the designer series paper.
I stamped the lighter pine image in Mint Macaron onto the Whisper White cardstock in the right hand corner and added the small dots using Cherry Cobbler ink.

I stamped the sentiment in Cherry Cobbler onto whisper white card stock and cut out using the tags and labels framelits.
I adhered it to the scallop circle which I cut in Cherry Cobbler card stock using the Layering Circles Framelits.

The Presents and Pinecones Designer Series Paper is part of the buy 3 get 1 free promotion which runs until 31 October. A great time to stock up on Designer Series Paper for the holiday season.

I stamped the banner image in Early Espresso on the inside of the card and added the sentiment in Emerald Envy.

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Amazing You featuring Christmas Pines Stampin UP stamp set

Hi there and welcome to my Merry Monday post.

Todays card features stamp sets from the Annual Catalogue and the Holiday Mini Catalogue.
I just wanted to show that Christmas Pines stamp set from the Holiday Mini Catalogue and co ordinating dies can be used for cards that are not necessarily just for the Holiday season

The Christmas Pines stamp set features 22 photopolymer stamps. I used the Pinecone image as a pineapple... so cute.

I stamped the stars and dots first in So Saffron classic ink. Just to add little more Old Olive I coloured in a couple of the dots using an Old Olive Stampin Marker.

I stamped the larger pinecone in So Saffron classic ink. To get the three different colours I wiped away a small amount and coloured in with Peakaboo Peach and Flirty Flamingo Stampin Markers.
I cut the Pinecone using the coordinating Thinlit Die.
I also cut the Pine in Old Olive cardstock using the coordinating Thinlit Die

I adhered Copper Metallic Thread to the back of the Pinecone and adhered to the card.

I stamped the Amazing in Flirty Flamingo classic ink onto Flirty Flamingo card stock and punched out using the Duet Banner punch.
I used the Thoughtful Banners stamp set... features a whopping 53 stamps for just about every occasion!

You can purchase the stamp set and coordinating Pretty Pines Thinlits Dies as a Bundle and save 10%.

I hope you enjoyed this project.
