Isn’t this a pretty bag to place a special treat in. I love making gift bags and boxes and have a whole stack of them. Ever since I was a child I’ve always loved pretty packaging and taking time to make a gift look extra special. It makes all the difference I think to show you took the time to care.

This is a very simple monochromatic birthday card. I am starting to use embossing folders more and more in my designs. They add great texture and interest to backgrounds. The one I used here is called Pretty Flowers and is new in the catalogue. The rhinestones really make the flowers pop. Sometimes these tiny finishing touches really make a card.

So pleased with how this came out. I used Calypso Coral cardstock. I never use this colour but oh my it looks good with this You’re a Peach designer series paper (DSP). The Pale PawPaw ribbon just finished it off perfectly. I have stored two little packets of biscuits in it for a sweet treat for someone special.

I’m so happy with the way this has turned out. He reminds me of a children’s tv show I used to watch called “Captain Pugwash”. I think I still have some of the storybooks but not sure where. Perhaps in a box somewhere. The pirate is coloured in using the Stampin’ Blend Alcohol markers. I made the rock he is standing on using the Painted Texture 3D embossing folder.

If you are a regular follower of my blog you will know that I love big bold sentiments. They make easy cards and work well with a busy designer series paper. This stamp set is called Biggest Wish and I love it. I use the stamparatus to stamp set this so I could restamp it to really deepen the colour.

A really simple design. I find I am using lots of banners and strips of paper in my cards now days. This is a great way to use up scraps and not waste anything. I’ve coloured these lovely flowers using the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers. The colour is Blackberry Bliss and really pops against the white.

Making a Large Gift Bag – No Cutting Needed – Hydrangea Hills – Fine Art Floral – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I’ve made this type of bag quite a few times. It is great if you are new to paper crafting or to do with children as no cutting is required. This bag uses a full piece of 12″ X 12″ paper / cardstock and makes a good size bag. The paper I’ve used here is the Hydrangea Hills designer series paper (DSP). It is so pretty. More importantly is that it has no specific direction which is important if you don’t want part of your image to be upside down.

measurements

  • Hydrangea Hills / Fine Art Floral DSP – 12″ X 12″, scored on one side at:
    • 3″ & 9″
    • Scored on the second side at 4 1/2″ from either end

I loved the Hydrangea Hill suite of products from the moment I saw them. This paper is beautiful. I have always loved hydrangeas. My mother had a huge pink one in the garden when I was growing up and we still have them in our garden now. I love the big blooms. They aren’t shy and very much a show stopper.

How to Make a Tall Square Box with a Separate Lid – Well Suited – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

These are really good size gift boxes. They are super easy to make I promise you. I did struggle to see the score lines when I was filming the box on the left. Oh boy!! I couldn’t see those pesky lines for love nor money. I tilted the paper and actually marked them with my pencil off camera. Did it though. The paper is quite masculine as it is the Well Suited designer series paper (DSP). I gave it a little extra touch with the punched flowers and red rhinestones.

measurements

  • Well Suited DSP – 11″ X 11″ scored at 4″ on each side
  • Well Suited DSP – 7 1/16″ X 7 1/16″ scored at 2 ” on each side
