Unboxing day 2020!

 Thanks for stopping by my blog! I hope you had a good holiday. Christmas 2020 was certainly different, but was still quite nice.
We had a fairly quiet, laid back day. While we missed family and friends, we had an enjoyable day, and the kids were able to play with their new treasures. 

I spend part of my holiday cleaning up and organizing my craft room. I promised myself that nothing would be unboxed from my Stampin' Up! pre-order until it was done. Thankfully my husband was a willing assistant, and did most of the heavy lifting for me, and I can now see all of the surfaces in my craft room again. 

This morning, I did my unboxing during a Facebook live on my page. Check it out if you don't already follow or like it- I've got loads of project ideas, and fun planned for the next few months!

12 Crafts of Christmas day 10- twist and close box

Image
 Today's project is a fun twist (ha!) on a gift box. While it looks challenging, it's really quite simple to put together, and all you need is cardstock, patterned paper, adhesive, a ruler and stylus or scoring tool. Trim 1/2 inch from your cardstock so you're left with an 8 1/2 x 10 1/2 piece. Score on the long edge at 2 1/2, 5, 7 1/2, and 10 inches. Score the short side at 2 1/2 inches, flip, and score the other side at 2 1/2 inches.  Mark one side as shown 1 1/4 inches from each score line, and score from the mark to the bottom corner. Fold and burnish to crease.  Cut the bottom of the box as shown to the bottom score line. Discard the small tab at the bottom.  Cut your patterned paper to 4 3/4 x 2 1/4. Run adhesive along the side and connect the two edges. Apply adhesive on the bottom edges and seal the box. Working from one side, pinch the top closed, and your box is done!  Check out the video here. Check out all of our projects as the 12 days continue here...

Need a quick gift idea? These boxes come together quickly and easily. All you'll need is a 7 x 10" piece of cardstock, some patterned paper and a stamp sentiment.  Take your cardstock and score on the short side at 1/2, 1 1/2, 5 1/2 and 6 1/2 inches. On the long side, score at 5 and 6 inches. Cut the tabs as shown in the video. cut the patterned paper 1/4 inch smaller than the box front and back.  Stamp the sentiment on the tag strip and adhere to the front of the box using dimensionals, and decorate as desired.  Check out the video here.

12 Crafts of Christmas- Day 2

Image
  My friend Stephanie from Chalk Couture and I are doing a 12 Crafts of Christmas collaboration over the next little bit. This is my project, which can be added to her snowman soup cup from yesterday.  The Snowman Season stamp, coloured with watercolour pencils is a cute and quick card on its own, but when you add a little bit of heat embossing with white embossing powder, it adds a little bit more interest and texture to the card.  Check out the video here: https://youtu.be/y8RoAFZmKLc Check out all of our projects as the 12 days continue here: bit.ly/3oXmsLB Supplies used: Snowman Season stamp set, Memento Tuxedo Black ink, versamark, white embossing powder, gems, Night of Navy cardstock, Basic White cardstock, watercolour pencils, Stampin' Trimmer.
