TIME FOR SOME MORE MERRY, BOLD & BRIGHT CREATIONS

If you didn’t see my post yesterday, make sure you pop back and have a look. It explains why I have so many Merry, Bold & Bright projects to share with you.

It has something to do with these next two images –

Today, I have another 3D project and card to show you.

These Christmas gift bags were inspired by Sam Hammon Donald – thank you Sam for always sharing your creations (with instructions!). Here is a link to see her creativity in action – https://pootles.co.uk/2023/08/18/stampin-up-zany-zoo-gift-box-idea/

I made these to showcase the amazing designs in the Merry, Bold & Bright 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper.

The wonderful Deckled Circles Dies were used to cut the sentiment label for the front of each bag. Then the Christmas bulbs were stamped, die cut and attached to the labels.

Each label then had Iridescent Adhesive-Backed Discs were added to give the bags a little bling.The bags were closed with coloured mini bulldog clips that I found at my local stationery store.

Now for a card!

For this card I wanted to create a gift card holder. I started with a Poppy Parade landscape tent fold.

I took a piece of Basic White card and used the Christmas Tidings Embossing Folder to add this amazing texture. After I attached this embossed layer to the front of the card, I created the gift card pocket and cover.

The Shaded Spruce gift card pocket was a trial and error process to get the right measurements. I added an insert of DSP to add to the Christmas theme.

A length of Silver Trim was attached to the back of the pocket and was then tied into a bow behind the ‘Santa was here’ greeting. The greeting was cut using one of the dies from the Autumn Leaves Dies.

The same greeting was stamped on the white card insert and envelope. The same Iridescent Adhesive-Backed Discs were added to the card front.

Tomorrow – some more Merry, Bold & Bright to share.

Until then, happy stamping.
