Boy and Girl Elf gift bags and tags

Hi everyone!!
Today I am sharing a project for both Miss Kate Cuttables

and Craftin Desert Divas design teams.

I love making special gift bags for our kids to give to teachers,
therapists or other people who help them out and are special to our family.
I made these matching bags with gift tags that hold a gift card.

For my project,
I used the "Get Your Jingle On" and "Tag It" stamp sets from Craftin Desert Divas
and the Boy Elf and Girl Elf from Miss Kate Cuttables.

For my cute boy elf, I used Peachy Keen Happy Lash Assortments for his face with some stampin pastels and then did some white faux stitching for his outfit.

Then for the girl elf I used Peachy Keen Kawaii Face Assortment,
then some stampin pastels to her cheeks and some white faux stitching to her outfit.

Close-up of the sentiment.

Inside of the Tag gift card holder.
Sentiment from Get Your Jingle On and the "To/From" are from Tag It.

Unfortunately, "Get Your Jingle On" is currently sold out
but Tara will let everyone know when it is back in stock!

You can purchase "Tag It" {here}.

December Daily Journaling cards using Planner Stamps

Hi Everyone!!
Today is my day to share a project for Trendy Twine using their fun Planner stamps.

Well, it's that time of year, time for December Daily or Holiday Scrapbooking.

I'm sharing some 3x4 pocket scrapbooking cards I made using several of Annie's Paper Boutique products including the Planner Stamps: At Home and Feeling Happy.

For these two cards,

I used some Christmas Mint Trendy Twine , White Tags size #2,

Red Chevron Trendy Page dot,

and Doodlebug snowflake washi tape.

For this card, I made a pocket for the coffee sleeve. I always like to save the special ones I receive.

So I used a small Glassine bag, Coffee Journaling Tag, Cherry Latte Ziggy Trendy Page dot,

Cherry Latte Trendy Twine and Krafty Red Trendy Twine.

I kept this card really simple.
The Wood veneer I purchased at JoAnn's, but the Candy Cane Doodlebug Washi Tape is from Annie's Paper Boutique.

For all the cards, I used the At Home and the Feeling Happy Planner Stamps.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Happy Memory making and keeping!!

Purple Snowflakes- Die Cuttin Divas Guest Designer

Hi everyone!!

Today I am honored to be sharing a project

as a Guest Designer for Die Cuttin Divas!!

The new challenge is Non-Traditional Christmas colors,

which means "NO RED OR GREEN."

So I thought, why not use my favorite color? Purple!

For my "Die-cut" I used Miss Kate's Cuttables file- "You're like a Snowflake."

I embossed my sentiment on vellum. The sentiment and snowflakes are from the Craftin Desert Divas November Release set "Get Your Jingle On." Then I added some Wink of Stella and some iridescent sequins from JoAnns.

Make to stop by to join this fun challenge and see what the Die Cuttin' Divas Design Team has created to inspire you!!

Have a wonderful day!!
