Snowflakes, Snowflakes, Snowflakes

I've been busy getting ready for the holidays ~ only one

post last week ;(.  Sometimes procrastination pays off apparently,

since now there are five challenges for snow and snowflakes at 

Addicted to CAS, CASology, CAS-ual Fridays, Curtain Call

Inspiration Challenge: Sweet Snowflakes, and at

Simon Says Stamp! Wednesday Challenge.

I have been making gift card holders, mostly featuring

snowflakes.  All of the paper used has been from my stash,

a few are older Stampin' Up papers.  I used the We R Memory 

Keepers Envelope Punch Board (which I believe is almost 

identical to Stampin' Up's).  The snowflake is the smallest one

in PTI's Fancy Flake Die Collection;  buttons are also from PTI.

I have made over thirty, mostly to give as gifts at school.  There 

are a lot of ideas on Pinterest for giving wrapping paper and tape

for a neighbor or teacher gift with a cute saying with it ~ 

"Hope you're getting all wrapped up in the spirit of the season!"

I am doing this, and adding tags and gift card holders as well. 

Its fun and practical.

 

 These are the seven different papers I have used.  Snowflakes are 

perfect for this.  Since to get a regular design straight on the board, 

you have to cut your paper on the diagonal and waste a fair amount 

of paper.

 

 

This week the challenge is…

Let It Snow

Thanks so much for stopping by!
