Welcome to this month’s Paper Crafting Blog Hop featuring the theme of Gift Packaging. I am excited to share another project with you today. Fellow Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from all over the globe are participating, so we have lots of fun projects to share with you. I hope you get loads of creative inspiration from them. You may have started here, or arrived from the talented Tracy Held’s blog. Wasn’t her project amazing? Either way, you’re in the right place!
I decided to use the Most Wonderful Time paper because I just love red for Christmas. I spotted a cute little gift bag made with this paper collection on page 2 of the mini catalogue. I thought it was so cute I decided to case it. It is perfect for a small gift or voucher. Caseing Catalogue projects is a great way to come up with new ideas.
The supplies I used from the Most Wonderful Time Product Medley:
DSP, Holly diecut, Star of Bethlehem Die, gold tinsel.
Additional supplies used:
Card: –Real Red Card, Gold Foil paper
Tools:– Stitched Shapes Dies Circle, Bone Folder
Other: –Stampin’ Dimensionals, Tear n Tape

Welcome back to my blog. I wanted to share some Christmas cards I received at our Avid Inkers Christmas get together.
This was a swap card from Frances who used Cherish the Season Bundle with the Greenery Embossing Folder and Gold Foil for the bells. She has coloured the embossing on the foil. Isn’t it stunning? The Cherish the Season Stamp Set is reduced by 10% during the Year End Closeout sale.
Karen created a gorgeous triple fold swap card using the Gnome for the Holidays Stamp set. This stamp set retires at the end of December. It is discounted by 20% during the current Year End Close Out Sale. How cute is it?
My swap card was made using the Quite Curvy Bundle of products. These stamps and dies will be available in the 2021 January-June Mini Catalogue and are available as an advance offering as part of the Curvy Celebration promotion which runs to 4 January. The promotion bundle includes the limited release bundle of Curvy Christmas Stamp set and Classic Christmas DSP which I used in my November blog hop.
My card also uses the Tasteful Texture Embossing Folder and the card is Rococo Rose.
During our get together, we also exchanged some Chistmas cards.
I forgot to photograph mine, but these were from Anne (left) and Karen, who both used the gorgeous Brightly Gleaming DSP (discounted by 50% during the current Year End Closeout Sale), and Vicki who used the Cardinal stamps. Frances used the Joy to the World Paper Pumpkin Kit which is available this month. Handmade Christmas cards are such a joy to receive.

The theme for the recent Facebook Live Share Fair was quick gift packaging using a variety of Stampin’ Up! packaging products. I chose to feature the tiny treat boxes. I like these because they make the smallest gift look gorgeous and you can change the items you use to decorate them to suit any occasion.
These particular boxes can be hung from the Christmas tree and can be used to dress up a small gift, a voucher, a cash gift, or some treats.
Stamps:-Todays Tiles
Card: –Seaside Spray, Feels Like Frost Designer Series Paper
Ink:- Misty Moonlight
Tools:– Field Tiles Dies (label and top decorative shape),Stitched Shapes Square Dies,
Other presenters at this event showcased packaging such as pizza boxes, cello bags, acetate card boxes, mini shipping boxes and paper pumpkin boxes. So there are many solutions for your gift packaging needs, and you can easily dress them up to suit the occasion.

Last weekend we had the first Avid Inkers get together for ages. We met at Goulburn for the afternoon as the event was hosted by my Stampin’ Up! niece Beck.
We had a secret Santa, swaps, a couple of projects and yummy festive treats. I love spending time with other SU Demonstrators and especially these particular ones. My two SU sisters and I have been meeting under our own steam for many years. We have been Demonstrators for 14 years now and our upline retired after about 2 years, so we’ve been “doin’ it for ourselves” since then.
I led the project above using the Enjoy the Moment Stamp Set which will appear in the new January-June Mini Catalogue. The design was one which was shared during the On Stage Online event. I really like this set and am looking forward to doing more with it.
Supplies Used
Stamps: – Enjoy the Moment
Card: – Misty Moonlight, Whisper White
Ink : – Misty Moonlight, Crumb Cake, Pool Party
Other: – Pool Party Sheer Ribbon
Karen led this project. It is so cute. You could use it for a voucher or for cash. We all used the Gift Wrapped Stamp Set and Gift Bow Builder punch These products are available as a bundle until they retire at the end of December. The stamp set is available with a 20% discount at $24 during the Year End Close Out sale running at the moment.
The supplies I used were:
Card –Real Red, DSP from Most Wonderful Time Product Medley (the medley is reduced by 40% and the refill kit by 10% during the current Year End Close Out sale), and Artistry Blooms DSP (for the ribbon and bow)
Ink : – Real Red, Memento Black
Basic Rhinestone Jewels
I will be back soon to share more from our get together.
