Perfectly Preserved Christmas Gift Tags

I have been having a lot of fun lately with the Perfectly Preserved stamp set and matching framelits. 

I saw the cutest project on Becky Roberts' blog which I CASEd but in a Christmas theme. 

 

 

Becky points out that the framelits are only meant to go through one layer of cardstock but the Whisper White and Very Vanilla cut on the fold work well.  Loving the Be of Good Cheer DSP.

 

Wouldn't these make cute, inexpensive gifts for all sorts of people?

That Ornament

I had a great time a couple of weeks ago making the Christmas Ornament on the front cover of the Holiday Mini. 

It's a beautiful thing "in the flesh."  Here is mine.  That's my thumb and my decoration in front of the catalogue thumb and decoration.

Don't forget we have a great special to get the co-ordinating paper piercing pack for free.  Click HERE for more information.

I love giving out little somethings that give my customers cute gift ideas.  These are made using the Petal Card Double Punch which scores and punches.  Two cutouts Tombowed together make each of these cute little boxes.

In each cello bag is a teeny box with a variety of brads and buttons and a teeny box with a metre of rolled up ribbon.

 

 



 Our new In Color Dahlias are a perfect embellishment and so easy to apply with a Mini Glue Dot.

Beautiful Decoration

There are so many gorgeous handmade decorations on blogs and websites. 

We have a fantastic new Big Shot die called Designer Rosette which makes creating those accordian flowers so easy.  This decoration is copied from a video by Kay Kalthoff.

As each layer is added it becomes more and more scrumptious.  If you are a Big Shot fan, I highly recommend the Designer Rosette die - lots of fun to play with and so quick!

Eleven!!!

Free ribbon with every $60 spent!

 

 

 

 

 

I can't believe it!  My son has turned eleven!  In that many years again he'll be twenty-two!!  Say it isn't so!

 

I made this card using retired DSP and the retired Simple Letters Alphabet.  I love the colours on this DSP which is actually a Halloween set.

 

 

 

 

• Crystal Effects on the letters gave this card its elegant polish. 
• Tombow Multi-Purpose glue was perfect for mounting the letters on the card - a little bit of give to line them up but then quick drying.
• The envelope co-ordinates perfectly with a little DSP snailed over the flap then trimmed.

 

 

Card:  Basic Black, Old Olive, Frightful Sight DSP (retired)

Tools:  Big Shot (got one yet?), Simple Letters Alphabet

Accessories:  Basic Black Grosgrain Ribbon (retired), Crystal Effects
