Welcome to the last Kre8tors blog hop of the year! What a creative year it's been! You maybe hopping from Melissa's project (thanks Melissa) or you maybe starting here, very happy to see you all.
Our theme this month is Christmas, please hop along with us all. We are all Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator's from around the world and we aim to inspire you to create.
As we are getting close to the big day I've made a quick and easy card and small gift box.
There's no stamping on the card, just cutting and sticking.
I've added the Red Rhinestone Basic Jewels (which are in the sale at the moment) and the Frosted and Clear Epoxy Droplets. The bow is the Linen Thread.
Tiny bit of stamping on the tag for the mini box. I then went a little bit crazy with my stamping and stamped a square of white tissue paper to go into my Clear Tiny Treat Box. I used Peaceful Noel stamp set, Garden Green and Real Red ink.
The tissue paper takes to stamping really well and is quite quick to do. It looks expensive and festive. The box is very quick to put together, I've cut a piece of the Farmhouse Festive DSP to fit the top of the box, then I've die cut some Whisper White card stock with the dies from Stitched Labels Framelits. The Festive Farmhouse Elements have some cute Christmas Trees which look great on the top of my box.
Please don't forget to hop along to Tricia Butts Awesome Christmas project.
