How to Make a Cute Pen Pouch / Stocking Filler – Greetings of the Season – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – UK

I think this is a great idea for a stocking filler. This bag/pouch is easy to make and fits at least two pens. I’ve used some pretty Christmas-themed ones I found online. You can use paper or cardstock to make these but I prefer paper. One thing I should mention is to be careful when scoring the paper. Use the fatter end of the scoring stylus or a lighter hand on the trimmer. You don’t want to cut through your paper.

Measurements

  • Snowy Scenes designer series paper (DSP) – 8″ X 4 1/2″ scored on the short side at 2″ & 4″ and 1″ & 3″ up to the score line. On the long side score at 1″ only.

Peaceful Season – Make a Card – Perfect for the Season – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

I was looking through my pretty paper and noticed I hadn’t used much of the Winter Meadow designer series paper (DSP). It is lovely paper and deserves to be used. This is the card I came up with. It is a tonal Christmas card and I love it. Do you?

I love to use my scraps. I hate having tons of leftovers. Are you the same? This is a great way to use scraps. I took strips of designer series paper and stuck them to a piece of Basic White cardstock in an order that was pleasing to my eye. A tip is to ensure they are well stuck done, I used an adhesive sheet but you could also use a wet glue. This became my “new” patterned paper to die cut as I pleased.

I love the bright and vibrant colours of this card. I’ve used Poppy Parade, Pumpkin Pie and Crushed Curry to create this gorgeous blended background. They work well together, do you agree? The emboss resist technique makes this focal image pop.

Scene cards are one of my favourite types of cards to create. This mother deer and her baby are sweet and perfect for a focal image for any Christmas card. I made the snowbank the old-fashioned way with my scissors. The purpose was to show you don’t always need dies to cut everything.

The mother and baby deer are coloured using the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers. I only used two colours, Crumb Cake and Petal Pink. Crumb Cake is my favourite shade of brown for animals.

I love the simplicity of this Christmas Card. The main star of the card is the Falling Snow background stamp. I’ve white heat embossed it on Azure Afternoon cardstock and then ink blended in the same colour over the top. The white heat-embossed areas resist the ink and stay bright white. Such a gorgeous effect.

  • Thick Basic White Cardstock – A6 Card Base – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half.
  • Azure Afternoon Cardstock – 1/4 sheet of A4 cardstock.

I wasn’t pleased with the outcome the first time I made this card. You can see the first version in the video below. I remade it in the video and now, I love it. The coordinating designer series paper (DSP) inspired the colours I used. I love the snowman with his red top hat. He is so cute and full of joy.

I’ve always loved the combination of blue and red. Do you like it? The colours here are Balmy Blue, Azure Afternoon and Poppy Parade. I’ve coloured the little house to look like a gingerbread house. The image is from the Humble Home stamp and punch bundle. I love punches. The colouring was done using the Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers. I love them, they are easy to use and produce great results.

I love this little tent box. It is easy to make and I am happy with how it turned out. There is no stamping here. I’ve used our ephemera packs to decorate and embellish it. A top tip is if you are making any bag or box for the first time, make a template using cheap cardstock. You can practice building the box or bag and make any mistakes before ruining your pretty paper. You can find a template for this box below the measurements.
