Happy December! Penguin Place Double Gate Fold Christmas Card

Happy December! I just sent out my December newsletter to my mailing list. This month I shared how to make a double gate fold Christmas card with the Penguin Place stamp set and the Penguin Builder Punch.

Christmas card with a penguin on the front. a belly band is wrapped horizontally around the card. The greeting says season's greetings. The penguin has four presents in front. Penguin Place, Penguin Builder Punch, Christmas, card, fun fold, double gate fold card


I also shared a few tips to make stamping and assembling this card a snap!

I designed and planned this card using the Penguin Place stamp set several months ago, and unfortunately, in the last few days it sold out and is no longer available for purchase. I debated on changing this month's project. However, most of you already have both the Penguin Place stamp set and the Penguin Builder Punch, and the skills in this card are easily translatable to another stamp set, and designer series paper can be substituted for the stamped winter tree and snow scene. So, I did not substitute another stamp set.

The new host code for December is 9CVPJ27N. Please, use the host code on orders under $150 USD. For orders over $150 USD, please, don't use the host code.

My December newsletter is available all month to new subscribers. If you sign up for my email list during December, you will also receive a copy of my December newsletter with the instructions, supply list, and measurements for this cute penguin Christmas card.

Turn a Tag into a Treat Holder with Partial Die Cutting

Today's Ghirardelli peppermint snowman treat holder was an experiment. Could I use something from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog to replicate one of my favorite quick and easy treat holders?

Framed and Festive, treat holder, 3D, Christmas, snowman, winter, gift packaging

I was sad to see the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch retired. I have made countless different treat holders and boxes with the decorative punch over the years.

The Scalloped Tag Topper Punch was one of my go to stamping tools! When the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog debuted, I noticed a possible replacement - #159165 Designer Tags Dies on page 170.

#159165 Designer Tags Dies graphic

This die set comes with 4 different tag dies, 1 decorative tag background die, 3 dies to cut shapes - a rose, a butterfly, and a floral sprig - and a tiny circle die.

I am excited about all of the tag shapes and decorative additions. However, the tiny circle die is what really surprised me. I thought, you know, it looks like a circle hole punch shape. That's helpful, I guess. I could just use a handheld circle punch though. 

 

#159165 Designer Tags Dies graphic metal dies

What's the big deal? The tiny little dot in the above graphics is not just a tiny circle die. It is a circle die that cuts the hole at the top of the tag, yes, but the actual die is in the shape of the top of the tag with the circle in the middle! Great, right!? The die's shape can be butted up to the top of the tag die for precise alignment!

No more guessing where the center of the tag is. The die lines up for you. That is why that tiny little circle in the above graphic is so great. So clever! Spread the word!

Ok. So, how did I turn a tag into a treat holder? The secret is to partially die cut only the ends of the designer series paper and not the bottom. To do this, cut the designer series paper slightly narrower than the width of the die. Fold the designer series paper in half.

Framed and Festive, treat holder, 3D, Christmas, snowman, winter, gift packaging


Slide the open end of the designer series paper from the back of the die to the front. Keep the folded end on top of the die, so the fold won't get cut. If the side view of the treat holder, I didn't crease the fold line, so you could see where the fold area goes more easily.

Line up the open end of the designer series paper with the top of the tag die. Place the circle die on top of the designer series paper at the top of the tag. Place a piece of low tact tape on the dies and run it through the Stampin' Cut and Emboss Machine.

Framed and Festive, treat holder, 3D, Christmas, snowman, winter, gift packaging


Tada! Your "tag" is now twice as long as the die and ready to add your treats to.

Framed and Festive, treat holder, 3D, Christmas, snowman, winter, gift packaging


Add the chocolate snowman with a bit of Stampin' Seal or a glue dot to the inside of the treat holder. Add the stamped and die cut stitched circle on dimensionals with some pearl basic jewels. Close up the treat holder and thread the ribbon half way through the top holes. Then tie the ribbon into a bow.

Once you make one treat holder. You will be making multiples in minutes!

I made 12 treat holders with 1 sheet of 12" x 12" designer series paper and 1 piece of 8-1/2" x 11" cardstock. If you cut your 8-1/2" x 11" piece of cardstock into 2" x 11" strips, you can die cut 20 circles from one sheet of 8-1/2" x 11" cardstock, making this treat holder design very economical and a great way to use up designer series paper.

Highlight a Greeting Stamp with this Fun Fold Christmas Card

 Today's flap fun fold card highlights not only the Sweetest Christmas Designer Series Paper, but this flap fun fold is fantastic for using larger greeting stamps like some of the stamps in the Framed and Festive stamp set.

Framed and Festive flap fold Christmas card with Sweetest Christmas Designer Series Paper DSP on the card front

The larger greeting stamps in Framed and Festive really stand out and shine on this fun fold! The jingle bell trinket and linen thread are the perfect holiday embellishment to enhance the greeting stamp.

This card opens with the flap on the right, revealing a larger designer series paper panel on the left side of the card front. The flap is adhered inside of the card base with Tear and Tape Adhesive before the inside mat is added.

On the inside of the card, I stamped another larger greeting from Framed and Festive - "May this season be filled with peace and joy" with Real Red ink. I did not add any more designer series paper to the inside of the card because you can see some of the inside of the card when the card is closed. 


However, you could add some more stamping or a vertical piece of designer series paper along the left or the right edge of the inside mat. A few festive pearls or rhinestones would also look nice in the upper right or lower right corner too. There are lots of ways to customize this flap fold card!

Deck the Halls this Christmas Season with the Framed and Festive Stamp Set

I love how some of the stamps in Framed and Festive stamp set are from Christmas carols! Today's Christmas card project uses the 'tis the season to be jolly and falala, which are both part of Deck the Halls.

Framed and Festive stamp set Christmas card with falala stamped in the background. The greeting on the circle die cut says 'tis the season to be jolly. behind the circle are sprigs of holly, leaves, and berries. There is a horizontal rectangle of birch tree patterned paper with a border of brown cardstock. Framed and Festive, Christmas, card, Boughs of Holly Designer Series Paper, Stylish Shapes Dies

I used 'tis the season to be jolly as my main focal greeting and stamped it on a stitched circle from the Stylish Shapes Dies with Cherry Cobbler ink. I then fussy cut holly leaves, berry sprigs, and leaves from the Boughs of Holly Designer Series Paper to highlight the greeting further.
 
I stamped falala with Versamark clear watermark ink to create a subtle background pattern across the card front. I didn't want the connection between the two greetings to be so obvious that it was too busy looking.

The White 3/8" Glittered Organdy Ribbon embellishment was created by folding the ribbon into an S-shape on the back of the circle die cut. I chose the white organdy ribbon because it is sheer and does not detract from the fussy cut leaves and berries. The ribbon also adds an extra bit of sparkle almost reminiscent of snowflakes, enhancing the wintry feel of this card.

Inside of the card I stamped Merry Christmas with Cherry Cobbler ink and added a narrow strip of the birch patterned paper horizontally along the bottom of the Inside Mat, leaving plenty of room to write a special message to your loved ones!

Christmas Wreath Pocket Gift Card Holder

Being a demonstrator, to me, means being part of an incredible stamping community. Part of my stamping community is my demonstrator team. They are an amazing group of ladies that I am so happy to be a part of! We talk throughout the week with each other, craft together, have in-person & online get togethers, go shopping together, have luncheons, play games, have bingo nights, and more.

We also have team meetings once a month on Zoom where we share projects and do challenges. Not all of my team members are local, and we all have different work hours, so it make sense to have our regular team meetings online.

During our October team meeting I shared a pocket gift card holder. The shape of this holder may be familiar, and I have made this style of pocket card before. However, the measurements for this gift card holder are my own.

I demonstrated how to make the pocket and how to make the insert. On the back of the insert is a piece of Basic White cardstock stamped with leaves, leaving plenty of room to write a special Christmas message.

I named our team Purrfect Stampers because my husband and I have two adorable, amazing cats. We love and spoil our cats with toys, treats, blankets, and more! They are very loved! The name comes from a play on the words purr like the sound a cat makes and perfect. It is not a claim just a play on words. All of my team members also love animals.

Ringed with Nature Christmas Double Pocket Treat Holders

Today's protect is a double pocket treat holder featuring the Ringed with Nature stamp set and the Boughs of Holly Designer Series Paper. The double pocket treat holder was one of the first treat holders that I learned when I started as a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator. 


Ringed with Nature Christmas Double Pocket Treat Holder

This festive treat holder comes together quickly and easily with minimal supplies. It also uses an entire piece of 6" x 6" designer series paper. 


There are two pockets to contain  a variety of treats. Here I used Ghirardelli chocolate squares. One chocolate square fits in each pocket.
