The stamp set is Holly Jolly Christmas from the Night Before Christmas Suite or products. I love this suite and have used this paper previously to make a gorgeous mini album which I will link below.

The Father Christmas is coloured in using the Stampin’ Blends alcohol markers. This makes for bright, bold and easy colouring in. He is cut out using the matching Holly Season Dies. The sentiment is also cut using this die and then adhered using Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue. You can also use adhesive sheet but unfortunately, we no longer sell this.

You might be able to see that the Father Christmas has a shimmer to his white trim. It is really difficult to show on camera but it is there I promise you. This is done with the Crystal shimmery effects which give a raised shimmery feel to this white trim.

Mini Chocolate Wrapped Gift – Stampin’ Up!

I have this yummy mini chocolate wrapped gift to share with you today. This is a very simple project but I would be very pleased if I were to receive it.

I bought a little pack of 5 chocolate bars from the supermarket with the intention of using them in a project and this is what I came up with. I have used the Night Before Christmas Designer Series Paper (DSP) here to wrap each chocolate bar individually. The ribbon is in the gorgeous classic weave ribbon that has “Merry Christmas” in two different fonts. I’ve heat embossed the sentiment to match it.

Measurements

  • Night Before Christmas DSP – This DSP is 6″ x 6″. I’ve used the full width of the paper and cut the other side to 11cm

I think a gift such as this would be perfect for a little pressie to work colleagues or neighbours. It looks beautiful but is very easy to make. It is also a great way to use up scraps of DSP which is always good.

Christmas Paper Bag Mini Album – Stampin’ Up!

I wanted to share with Christmas Paper Bag Mini Album that I’ve made. I really enjoyed making this and am so proud of the way it turned out. The album uses the Night Before Christmas Designer Series Paper (DSP). The whole suite is amazing and is perfect for this mini-album.

There is no stamping at all in this album. I used the DSP as well as the co-ordinating Memory and More cards. The cards come with 6″ X 4″ cards, 4″ X 3″ cards a number of sticker sheets. They are perfect for this album.

The album is made from 6 brown paper bags. This gives you 6 large pockets at the top and another 6 small pockets on the back page. I’ve matched the colours in the DSP in my cardstock mats.

I’ve used the Memory and More cards as embellishments, as well as tags and photo mats. The stickers make great accent pieces as well. You can also fussy cut images out of the DSP to make embellishments.

I did say in my video that I would put up the measurements here. However, I am not going to do that as I realised that without a tutorial video they don’t make that much sense.

If you want a tutorial video then please let me know in the comments and I will do it for you. Here is a video showing you a flip through of the album as well as the supply list.
