Tags til Christmas – Pretty Packaging CCMC-HM8

November 20, 2010 By Connie | 1 Comment

Our last challenge over on Create with Connie and Mary is for the Design Team only. We are wrapping up the week that featured Tags til Christmas, Designer Fabrics, Candy Countdown Calendar Kit and Peaceful Season in the Holiday Mini. This week's challenge is Pretty Packaging! Each of the designers has come up with their version, so make sure to check them out!

Hard to believe that another session of Create with Connie and Mary is over. Yes, you can still sign up, but there will not be any new posts…you still have access to all the past ideas we've shared over the 8 weeks. But…don't worry…the Occasions Edition will be starting soon!

For my pretty packaging, I made a #2 Box from the Sizzix XL die. I cut it from Cherry Cobbler Textured Cardstock. Along the side, I used the Candy Cane Christmas Designer Paper and the Tasteful Trim XL Die. I used the SIlver Tinsel to tie it closed. With the Tinsel, I tied the punched Decorative Label that was stamped with my favorite greeting in the Tags til Christmas set, "Even the Naughty Deserve Something Nice!" I added a fun "Santa Owl" punch art, using the Owl Punch and the Santa suit stamp in Tags til Christmas for the vest…isn't it cute? The Santa hat is from Jolly Jingle Bits. Here's a close up of the owl! Isn't he cute??? I love using Black Mini Brads for the eyes…it just makes them POP!

Make sure to check out what the rest of the Create with Connie and Mary Design Team did this week! They DEFINITELY have some great packaging ideas for you!

Have a great weekend!

I love stamping cards, altering 3D items and making little favors. I've been stamping for over 21 years and just had my 20th year Stampin' Up! anniversary in early May. I love being part of something that sparks my creativity and hear people comment, "you MADE this?" I also enjoy sharing that passion with others in my classes! If you live anywhere in the Lewis Center, Delaware, Dublin, Powell, Westerville, Hilliard or surrounding Columbus, Ohio areas, join us! I love to meet new stamping friends. Email me for a current class schedule... I'm adding new classes all the time!
