My Papercrafting Class Samples

These are my samples I made for a papercrafting class I'm teaching on Friday at JoAnn's. There is a gift bag and tag and two Christmas cards. I'm posting them for the following challenges:
  • Creative Card Crew-Christmas
  • 365-Red and Green
  • Creative Inspiration-Christmas card and tag set
  • 2 Red Bananas-Christmas

Supplies (all available at JoAnn's):

  • K&Company Ck McKenna Mat pad (great double-sided paper)
  • Inkadinkado Queue Rose Petal Inks
  • Inkadinkado Clear Holiday Pattern Play Stamp set
  • Inkadinkado Colorbox Black Ink
  • EK Success punch edger Snowflakes
  • Small (5 1/4 x 8 1/2" ) brown paper gift bag with handles
Above and below are close ups of the two cards. All images and the sentiment come from the Inkadinkado Holiday Pattern Play stamp set. The first card has the Happy Holidays sentiment and the candies inked with maroon ink and uses the snowflake edge puncher. The second card uses the holly and flourish stamps with maroon and black ink both on the stamp. The bird is stamped with only the maroon ink. After stamping the hollies are cut out for arrangement on the flourish. The little bird looks as though he's hanging from the flourish.

The snowman stamp you see below is stamped on a green patterned paper and surrounded with the snowflake stamp from the set using three different red inks. The snowflake edge puncher is used on the bottom edge of a light beige paper.

The gift tag used the holly, sentiment and Christmas tree from the set. The tree and holly are stamped onto green patterned paper and then cut out. I hand wrote the To: and From: on the tag. The gift bag has a piece of beige paper that's stamped with the snowflake in the three red inks, scored and slit to fit over the handles.

Project Tuesday/Stamptacular Sunday



What a fun little box/bag from Project Tuesday. I couldn't resist and it gave me an early start on Christmas wraps for my Christmas goodies. The best thing about Project Tuesday is the directions are clear and easy to follow. This little creation only took about 20 minutes to put together. Great when you have to do something in mass. After the first one it will probably go faster with the rest. My circle sentiment came from The Cutting Cafe and I mounted it on a scallop circle I cut with my Cricut machine (Mini Monograms). My paper is Heidi Grace and the cute little gingerbread man is something I picked up last year from the day after Christmas sale at Target for 50% off. My ribbon also came from the day after Christmas sale but from Wal-Mart. Don't you love the day after Christmas sales. I always go with an eye towards items I could use for card making or scrapbooking. I drag my husband out every year. Poor guy, that's what happens when your wife is legally blind and can't drive.
