Wrapped in Cheer tags for Christmas

I shared the November Paper Pumpkin kit on last week’s live video. I just love receiving my crafty box in the mail each month! Easy crafting without a plan or step it up and use your creativity to change the projects.

There were two different tags in this kit and each one includes multiple pieces. Aren’t they pretty? The embossing folder is called Traditional Wreath 3D folder and can be seen here. It’s discounted and available while supplies last.
*The greeting is from the stamps in the kit.

I used the tags to make Christmas cards which you can see below. All I did was add a textured layer and a card base. *I’ll share more details tomorrow.

Remember that each month my subscribers and Team receive my bonus projects PDF. Lots of unique ideas to create with the contents of each box. Subscribe to Paper Pumpkin here.

Below is the video where I share this kit, last months and how to make the cards too.

• Retro style circles layout; super easy! Catch the Live video tonight!

  November 9, 2020

  ---

  Tonight at 7:30 pm Central Time I'm sharing how to make these retro style circle cards on Facebook Live.  Click here to join me.   You can also see this video below!

  
  
  
  
  
  

  Basically you need three sizes of circle dies or punches for the start of this layout.  Cut them in half and layer together with the edges meeting on one side. Adhere and add a long greeting between the two. 

  Watch how on my FB Live replay!

  Measurements:

  • 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base
  • 3 1/2" X 4 3/4" Whisper White; the greeting strip is about 5" long and either 1/2" or 3/4" wide depending on your greeting image.
  • 1" X 5 1/2" horizontal strip
  • Circles from the Stitched Shapes dies are the largest three circles. 

  You'll want ink, stamps and embellishments that coordinate with your Designer Paper.  Remember you could use card stock instead of DSP.

• Curvy Christmas & the Postage Punch

  November 6, 2020

  ---

  Check out this easy card using the new Curvy Christmas stamp set and the Postage Punch!  

  
  
  
  
  
  

  It's super simple! Here's how I made it:

  1. Stamp the curvy trees image on the White CS using Shaded Spruce ink.  Color the trees with a Light Shaded Spruce Blends marker.  Add a tiny star using Cherry Cobbler ink on one tree. Adhere it to the Cherry Cobbler layer and to the main card.
  2. Punch out three pieces of Classic Christmas designer paper with the Postage Punch seen here.  Adhere to the White CS. 
  3. Stamp the greeting in Cherry Cobbler ink on a 1/2" strip of White CS.  Punch the ends with the Banners Pick a Punch. Add it to the card with mini dimensionals. 
  4. Finish with a few Holiday rhinestones. 

  You can see this stamp set here; it's only available through January 4th.  And the Classic Christmas Designer Paper is here while supplies last. 

  Remember that everyone who orders any of these products or places an online order with me in November will receive a free 22 project PDF tutorial featuring the Curvy Celebration products!

• Gift Wrapped Box Fold Card with video

  November 5, 2020

  ---

  Check out this cute Christmas card we made at my October Card Clubs!  It's a box fold card; a super cute but easy fun fold. 

  
  
  
  
  
  

  The colors are Real Red with Granny Apple Green & White. The dies on the front are the Stitched Shapes and Hippos & Friends.

  It even folds flat for mailing!  As you can see the back is similar to the front; leaving some space to write or sign the card.  

  I used the Gift Wrapped punch bundle from the Holiday catalog.  You can see it here. 

  
  
  
  
  
  

  Check out the video and measurements below. 

  
  
  
  
  
  

  Here's the video: 

   

  Measurements:

  Real Red 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2", 7", 9" and 10 1/2"
  Granny Apple Green 3 5/8" X 4 7/8" (2 pieces) plus scrap for die-cut
  Whisper White 3 1/2" X 4 3/4" (2 pieces) plus scrap for circle die-cut and bow
