Make a Magnetic Closure Christmas Gift Box

Make a Magnetic Closure Christmas Gift Box – Brightly Gleaming – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I’ve used the Brightly Gleaming designer series paper (DSP) here to make these cute little gift boxes. I think the copper foiling really pops against both the Real Red and Melon Mambo pink. These boxes were both made using scraps of DSP from making another gift box which I will feature shortly on this blog.

I used small neodymium earth magnets that I got online for the magnetic closure. I covered both with some DSP so that the magnets were not so strong. The stamp set is Wrapped in Christmas and has some matching dies as well. This sentiment also matches the 1 1/2″ circle punch perfectly as well. I love punches and tend to use them rather than dies whenever I can.

measurements

Real Red / Melon Mambo – 8″ X 7 1/2″, Scored on the:

How to Make a Christmas Ornament Card

How to Make a Christmas Ornament Card – Heat Embossed – Christmas Gleaming – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I love to heat emboss. It is such fun to be able to make these shiney cards. The ornaments are from the Christmas Gleaming stamp set that carried over from last year. They have a set of two matching punches making this card very quick and super simple to make with no added tools needed. I love heat embossing as a little powder goes along way so you can get not only such great value for you money but the chance to create this magic over and over again.

The sentiment is from Itty Bitty Christmas. This is a great Christmas sentiment stamp set and I just want to give it a big shout out as it will become a staple in your Christmas cardmaking.

Stars in the Night – Christmas Blessings –

Stars in the Night – Christmas Blessings – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

This card is simple but elegant. The designer series paper (DSP) is Brightly Gleaming. It has carried over from last year’s Christmas catalogue. I love all the copper foiling and have picked this up in using come copper foil sheet to mat my sentiment on .

I think this is a perfect card to make in bulk. It takes a few minutes only to make but is stunning and of course handmade. I don’t work in an office anymore but this is definitely one I would have made as my office Christmas card.

Large Gift Box Tutorial – Brightly Gleaming

I have this gorgeous large gift box to share with you today. This uses the Brightly Gleaming Speciality Designer Series Paper (DSP). This is a very good size box, perfect to house a present for a special someone.

The Brightly Gleaming DSP is gorgeous. One side of each sheet has copper foiling. I have used two different designs here to give you options when making this box. This box measures 6″ X 4″ X 2″. This paper is part of the Brightly Gleaming suite of products that includes the Christmas Gleaming stamp set and two ornament punches.

The bauble and sentiment have been heat embossed with copper embossing powder to match the paper and copper foil sheet. I love the way all the colours co-ordinate in the paper, inks and ribbon.

measurements

Pretty Peacock – 10″ X 8″ Scored at 2″ on all sides
Brightly Gleaming DSP 10 1/16″ X 8 1/16″ Scored at 2″ on all sides
Very Vanilla strip 2″ wide

The strip of Very Vanilla is the full length of an A4 sheet but was still too short as this is a large gift box. I had to add in an extra little piece that is hidden on the bottom of the box.
