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
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…
