Welcome to our Paper Crafting Blog Hop featuring talented Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from all over the globe including the USA, United Kingdom and Australia. We have a wide array of gift packaging projects to share with you. You may have arrived from Maureen’s blog. She had a fabulous project!

The Sweet Stocking suite is for the dog and cat lover. The images on the patterned paper are so cute! The paper is richly toned with cherry cobbler, evening evergreen along with shades of bumblebee, cinnamon cider, old olive and pool party. I decided to make a wrap to go around the Acetate Card Boxes. Position the patterned paper for a custom wrap tailored to the person receiving the box whether they like dog or cats.

Paper Crafting Blog Hop Gingerbread and Peppermint

November 17, 2021November 17, 202114 Comments

Welcome to our Paper Crafting Blog Hop featuring talented Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from all over the globe including the USA, United Kingdom and Australia. We have a wide array of projects to share with you featuring December Holidays. You may have arrived from Maureen’s blog. She had a fabulous project!

The Gingerbread and Peppermint Suite has lots of options. Select just a few items or get the whole lot! I used the Gingerbread and Peppermint patterned pack to create a dramatic back drop for my merry message. Three die cut shapes from the Pillowbox Dies were used on the card. Can you find all three?

The tag “ribbon” is actually a scrap of real red cardstock for something a little different.

My Youtube video shows how to use the long tag to create the fancy edge on the Real Red cardstock.

Welcome to our Paper Crafting Blog Hop featuring talented Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from all over the globe including the USA, United Kingdom and Australia. We have a wide array of fun projects and design styles to share with you showcasing gift packaging. You may have arrived from Sandy’s blog. She had a fabulous project!

The Playful Pets Suite is a must add to your collection since it features both cats and dogs. My project today features each pet on a treat package. The printed gusseted cellophane bags are roomy enough to bake a batch of snacks and gift to the neighbor pets.

I can share recipes for taste test approved puppy dog treats. I use to bake for our beagle and it was the highlight of his week!

the kitty cat version…

I do have a Youtube video showing assembly tips.

Paper Crafting Blog Hop Snowflake Splendor

Welcome to our Paper Crafting Blog Hop featuring talented Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from all over the globe including the USA, United Kingdom and Australia. We have a wide array of fun projects and design styles to share with you showcasing December Celebrations. You may have arrived from Sandy’s blog. She had a fabulous project!

Best laid plans change. I love the Snowflake Splendor Suite. When I initially created this blog post, my plan was to use this suite. But then I got to designing without consulting my notes and came up with these square acetate box designs which are perfectly sized for a couple of candy store chocolate treats.

one for Christmas using a pattern from the Forever Greenery paper pack…

one for Valetine’s using the red velvet 12×12 inch paper…

Both use the beaded pearl trio embellishments found in the August-December mini-catalog. Snap them up quick because they did not make it into the January-June mini-catalog.
