In today’s Make it Monday video, we are creating a tall holiday gift box. I am thinking this would be a great project for our beloved teachers. Create a special box and fill it with some home made or store bought candy for that special teacher in your child’s world.

It is also a great gift box if you give Christmas gifts to your bosses and co-workers. It is super easy to make, just follow the video instructions and the pdf cutting template! Add some designer series paper and a cute tag and you are all set!

This box was created using a 10 x 7-3/8″ piece of Cherry Cobbler cardstock. have fun creating this adorable box!

Holiday Gifts and Treats-Favorite Things Friday

Well my friends Christmas is only 42 days away. While I do not really like to shop, I love making Christmas cookies and candies. One my my favorite things to make and give away at Christmas is homemade caramels.

Depending on the year, I will give my caramels away in hand-crafted boxes, such as the ones featured in this weeks Make it Monday and Weekly Wednesday videos. But I also enjoy making bag toppers and putting my wrapped caramels in one of our clear envelopes.

To create bag topper, begin with a 3 x 5-7/8 piece of Cherry Cobbler cardstock and score in portrait position at 1½. Stamp a greeting of your choice, here I chose the Merry Christmas from Evergreen Elegance. I stamped it with VersaMark ink and heat embossed with some white embossing powder. I added a few snowflakes from Penguin Place. Sorry, no homemade caramels, yet, but soon!

Do you have a favorite Christmas treat that you like to give? Share your comments and you could be the lucky winner. Just comment below and let me know what your favorite Christmas treat to eat or to give away and you could win a package of In Color Jewels!

2021-2023 In Color Jewels

Comment to win before midnight on Wednesday 11/17/21. I will randomly choose one person from the comments to receive a package of 2021-2023 In Color Jewels. The lucky winner will be announced on next week’s Favorite Things Friday blog post! Good Luck!

Holly Jolly Christmas

Today I have a super simple holiday card! I did not use the traditional holiday colors, but instead coordinated the colors from the star paper in the Sweet Stocking Designer Series Paper pack. You can literally create this card in less than 5 minutes!

I began with a Bumblebee card base and added a triangle layer of the Sweet Stocking Designer paper. I stamped the greeting from Holly Jolly Wishes and the star from Penguin Place in Evening Evergreen ink to match the paper.

I used the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine and the Seasonal Label Dies to crop the greeting and layered it on the front of the card. Super simple. I love the sweet stars from the Penguin Place stamp set.

You could also use a BumbleBee Blend marker to add a bit of color to Jolly! Of course I thought of this after I create the card and uploaded it to my post. LOL

If you have not had a chance to play with the Holly Jolly Wishes stamp set, it is great for creating quick, clean and simple holiday cards. I hope this card will get you thinking outside of the box for your next holiday creation!

Until next time, be blessed, Renae

Give From the Heart-Sunday Wisdom

Today’s gospel is all about giving from the heart. It really does not matter how much you offer our Lord, He needs nothing from us, but sacrificial giving pleases Him. Whether we offer a monetary gift or simply give freely of our time and attention, we learn to become more generous.

The Lord does not expect us to empty our bank account, but he does want us to pour out our hearts and be as generous as He is. After all He gave every drop of blood, every ounce of mercy and even His last breath so that if we so choose, are free to eternally live in His Kingdom.

Countdown to Christmas-Favorite Things Friday!

Hey my stamping friends, now that we are officially in November we can begin our countdown to Christmas 2021! There are only 49 days until Christmas!

Over these next few months I hope to share a variety of stamping projects that will get you in the mood for the holidays and for gift giving, which are two of my most favorite things!

Today’s card begins with an Evening Evergreen card base. Evening Evergreen is a new In-color featured in the 2021-2022 annual catalog. I used the Evergreen Elegance and Peaceful Cabin stamp set to create this card. Don’t you just love the little fox?

I stamped the trees from Peaceful Cabin in Evening Evergreen ink, and the greeting from the Evergreen Elegance stamp set on a 4 x 5¼ piece of Basic White cardstock. Mr. Fox is stamped in Cajun Craze and the sweet little snowflakes (Peaceful Cabin) are stamped in Smoky Slate Ink.

I created the snow by tearing a 2 x4 Basic White CS and layered it on the bottom of the white panel. To add a bit more dimension to the snow drifts and use a sponge dauber and add some Smoky Slate ink along the top of the torn edge and under the trees.
