I know Xmas is over, but......

I needed to post some of my xmas creations that I made for a craft show in early December.  I have been so busy with the kids, my pregnancy, and xmas preparations, that I've had no time to post.  So, this will be a double post today to make up for some lost time. 

These are a few samples of the money holders I was asked to make.  I thought they would be huge sellers at the craft show, but the gift card holders sold much better.  They were super easy to make, and again, like the gift card holders, I was able to use alot of my scraps!

Gift Card Holder

This is my first attempt at a Christmas Gift Card holder.  I found the tutorial here and I thought I'd give it a try.  It was actually super easy! I used a different punch to indent the gift card holder, but other than that, everything was the same.  The one thing I did notice is that, because of it's small size, this is perfect for using up scraps of DSP and regular paper.  I had so many scraps of Jolly Holiday DSP, and I was able to use a bunch with these gift card holders.  I'm going to try to make a few birthday gift card holders too.  I hope you like it!

Gone awhile but getting back into things.....

This is my newest Christmas creation.  I cannot stop talking about how much I love the Jolly Holiday DSP!!!  I actually just ordered another pack because I am almost out of my original pack.  I also just placed an order for one of the 'Tags Til Christmas" Bundles that Stampin Up! has as a special.  I can't wait to start making more cards and tons and tons of tags!!!! 

Anyways, I got this idea from Riley Fitzgerald here.  I loved her paper combo and general card layout.  I changed one or two minor things, but kept most of it the same (she did an amazing job!!!).

Thanks for looking and sorry it's been so long since I've posted.

Fun Christmas CASE

This fun Christmas card was CASE'd from Ann Schach here.  I loved the DSP combo on her card and I wanted to try it out for myself.  I'm trying to put together a box of various Christmas cards that have similiar themes, and this one I will definitely add to my collection.  I hope you like it!

Christmas Gift Box

This is my 3 X 3 Christmas gift box.  The color idea came from Sabriena here.  I loved the usage of the DSP but I changed out the bottom pattern, ribbon, and tag.  The great thing about the box is that it can also be adjusted to fit a standard 5.5 X 4.25 card easily.  I used a huge amount of DSP in a class I just did, so I made the smaller box just for an idea for people for either little Christmas treats, or the idea for a bigger box if they want.  I LOVE the Jolly Holiday DSP!!! It is one of my favorite DSP's so far.  The colors are fabulous and the designs are perfect for anything.  The tag has a cute "diamond" on the center of the snowflake and on the back I stamped "For You".  Thanks Sabriena for the fabulous idea!!!!
