For the December Make and Take it was all about Christmas! I held the
class closer to the beginning of the month to try not to interfere with too
many holiday parties and plans. So here is the first one, a tall stack of
pretty wrapped presents! I was inspired by THIS card created by Angie over at Chic 'n Scratch. Now here is my version.
- Stamps: Snowflake Soiree, Teeny Tiny Wishes
- DSP: Be of Good Cheer
- Ink: Cherry Cobbler
- Accessories: Scallop Edge Border Punch, Gumball Green Stitched Satin Ribbon, Paper Snips, Champagne Glimmer Paper, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Glue Dots, SNAIL Adhesive, 2-Way Glue Pen
I started off with a piece of Cherry Cobbler card stock cut at 5-1/2” x
8-1/2” and scored at 4-1/4”. I stamped the card front with the image from
Snowflake Soiree in Cherry Cobbler ink to create a background pattern.
The presents are basically a stack of rectangles adhered behind one
another with a smaller rectangle at the top for the “lid” of the box. The
bottom box is a 1-3/4” x 3” piece of DSP. For the lid I used a 3/4” x 3” piece
of Gumball Green card stock and punched one edge with the Scallop Edge Border
Punch and adhere the scalloped trim onto the top of the DSP with 2-Way Glue
Pen. For the middle present I cut a 2” x 2” piece of DSP and 1/4” x 2” piece of
Champagne Glimmer Paper. I adhered the bottom of this present behind the very
top of the bottom present.
For the smallest present I cut a 1-1/2” x 2” piece of DSP and a 1/4” x
1-1/2” piece of Very Vanilla card stock. I adhered the bottom of this present
behind the very top of the middle present. Next I cut a piece of Gumball Green
Stitched Satin Ribbon about 1-1/2” longer than the height of the presents. I
used SNAIL Adhesive to adhere the ribbon ends onto the backside of the
presents. I adhered the stack of presents onto the card front with a few
Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I stamped the greeting from Teeny Tiny Wishes onto a 1/2” x 3” piece of
Very Vanilla card stock in Cherry Cobbler ink. I used Paper Snips to trim one
end into a dove-tail and adhered the other end of the tag under the ribbon at
the top of the stack of presents. Finally I tied a bow in Gumball Green
Stitched Satin ribbon and adhered it onto the top of the stack of presents with
a Glue Dot.
Simple and fun! I would love to receive a stack of presents like these,
how about you?
