Seems to be the perfect time for our Stampin’ for Christmas Blog Hop as around the world we participate in various Christmas in July activities. Stampin’ Up! demonstrators have had the perk of seeing and ordering from our new Mini Catalogue with lots of Christmas products. It is as always, beautiful. However, today I’ve got a cute project featuring some Christmas products from our Annual Catalogue.
Our Christmas Time section in the Annual Catalogue is on Pages 88 – 93. There is a gorgeous suite called the Tidings of Christmas Suite which I’ve used to decorate the Soft Succulent gift bag. These Ombre Gift Bags come in a pack of 20 for $10.50 in our new In-Colours.
I embossed the bag with one of the Wintry Embossing Folders. As these are the Mini folders, I ran the bag through twice to ensure the whole bag was embossed.
I die cut a frame from the Ornate Layers dies to create the border along the ribbon which I coloured with Rich Razzleberry ink to coordinate with my project.
The star was die cut from Basic White cardstock and sponged with Rich Razzleberry ink to give a softer tone of colour instead of cutting directly from cardstock. Some leaves die cut from Rose Gold Metallic Paper and Rich Razzleberry Cardstock add to the festive look of this special gift packaging.
