Gifts Galore Paper Pumpkin Alternate Ideas| November 2021

Hey there! I have some cute Paper Pumpkin alternate ideas to share with you featuring the Gifts Galore Kit. This was such a cute kit. I filled the little treat holders with large soft peppermints. I decided not to use both sides of the winter image for the treat packaging. Instead, I saved it and added them as focal pieces on card fronts. I really love how they turned out. You can make 9 card fronts (3 of each design) in doing this.

Card Measurements:

Basic White Thick card base (not included in kit) 5.5" x 8.5" scored at 4.25"

Pool Party cardstock (not included in kit) 4" x 5.25"

Tips:

• Decide where you want your image cutout to go on the front of your card. Adhere it using Liquid Glue.  Then cut off the areas that hang over the edge of the card front using Paper Snips.

• Using the Layering Circle Dies, die cut a piece of Basic White cardstock. Stamp the sentiment in Flirty Flamingo ink. Die cut a Pool Party scalloped circle. Layer the sentiment onto the scalloped circle using the liquid glue.

• Add a twist of the twine, included in the kit, to the back of the sentiment scallop using tape. Then pop up the sentiment on the card front using dimensionals from the kit.

• Finish the cards with a few Pool Party gems from the Holiday Rhintestones.

Easy DIY Christmas Giftcard Holder| featuring Evergreen Elegance

Hey there! I have a fun new project to share with you today. I use to create giftcard holders all the time before I started using Stampin' Up! products. I'm not sure why I haven't created them in such a long time. They are so much fun and make a giftcard truly like unwrapping a present. I couldn't remember the measurements I used all those years ago so, I started all over and came up with new measurements and I'm really pleased with how these turned out. Note: The Heartwarming Hugs DSP I used is not longer available but you could substitute any designer paper of your choosing.
