Merry Christmas! It's incredible to see how time flies, I can hardly believe that this is the last project of 2024 and obviously it had to be very special! I made this project for Santa Claus with a lot of love!
I tell you, I wanted to surprise Santa in a very special way! Leaving him the traditional cookies, so I made a box with the cardboard technique and the Tinsel Time collection and the result is adorable!
I placed many cookies for Santa inside the box and decorated the outside with the odds & ends and I love how they look!
I decorated the lid with Odds & Ends and Chit Chat pieces and of course I added sprinkles to give that shine that I love so much!
And what is a gift without a beautiful bow! I placed it on the lid with a December 25th tag, which of course is when we all wait for the arrival of our dear Santa!
I take this opportunity to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2025. Sincerely, your friend,
Just one more day until we celebrate the jolliest season of the year! I am sure that you are all ready to take the photos, eat the food, open the present, and make the memories. So what better way to relive them than to document them with the fun and beautiful Tinsel Time collection. I pulled some past memories of my children for today's layout:
I just love how this layout came together using a simple design and all the embellishments that I could add here.
I started by framing a piece of the coordinating cardstock with the Berry Merry, and Tinsel Time papers. Next, I pulled pieces from the Odds & Ends pack to create the light garlands under the bell bough at the top of the page.
I decided to back the photos with papers from the 6x6 pad, and then adhered to the base so that they sit right under the light strings. I mixed die cuts from the Bits & Pieces pack to create the large cluster to the right of the photos.
To complete the line of embellishments at the bottom of the photos, I added the cute reindeer Doodle Pop to the left of the photos and then pulled a piece of Chit Chat to create my title.
A few Sprinkles around the embellishments complete this page. I just love it! And I hope it gives you inspiration for your next crafty project featuring Tinsel Time!
I want to take this space to wish you all a blessed Christmas, and may 2025 be filled with joy and peace! XO
We are officially down to the wire! It's time to get all of those Christmas gifts wrapped and put under the tree! I decided to add some fun Tinsel Time Shaker Tags to some of my gifts this year... take a peek...
I started with some Tag Dies from my stash. I cut them from some Tinsel Time Coordinating Textured Cardstock. I lined the bottom tag piece (without the window) with some fun papers from the 6x6 pad. I love the smaller prints, they work perfectly for projects like this. I covered the open window of the tags with some Heavyweight Acetate. I added some double sided 1/8"foam tape to outline the window, filled it with some fun shakers then attached the top tag to the bottom! All that was left was to decorate which was easy with all the fun Puffy Stickers, Shaped Sprinkles, mini Jewels, Icon Stickers, Odds & Ends and Bits & Pieces! Here are some close-ups...
On the "B" side of the Happy Holly Days 6x6 paper are word strips that are great for cards & tags. I used them for sentiments on my tags. I also added some fun Glitter Sprinkles from the Christmas Assortment to some of the ornaments.
In addition to Doodlebug Shaker balls, I also used the Happy Holidays and Jolly Holly Shakers. I also added some shaped sprinkles from the Christmas Candy Shaped Sprinkles.
To top my tags I stapled some grosgrain ribbon using my tiny attacher stapler. They are all set to be added to my gifts!
Here's a little video of my tags.... it's always more fun to see things in motion!
I hope that everyone has a wonderful, safe & healthy Holiday season. I'll be back in the new year with some more Doodlebug projects! Thanks for stopping by to peek.
