This week Kris set the challenge over at Sunny Challenges & Creations & it is all about “Christmas“.

With everyone’s busy schedule this time of year, you have 2 weeks to complete this challenge.

The challenge is to share something Chrissy – 3-D, Gifts, Cards, Scrapbooking or in fact, anything you like with a Christmas Theme.

So come on everyone, grab that stampin’ stuff & start stampin’, creating or even baking!!!!!

My sample has been around in blog land for a long time now, but I wanted to create something for blokes that I didn’t have to spend much time on & easy to fill once I had created it. Not to mention, easy for them to get into too.

This bag is full of Chocolates ready for Christmas Day – Fingers crossed they will last that long with me around as I am my own worse enemy with chocolate around.

Once I created my box for the bottom, I cut my DSP & wrapped it around the bottom of the box.

I cut a strip of Old Olive Cardstock, punched one long side using the Scallop Edge Punch, added a bit of Faux Stitching with my Gel Pen & again wrapped it around the bottom of the box.

I punched 2 pieces of Old Olive Cardstock using the Round Tab Punch, applied Faux Stitching around the edges, punched a hole in each tab using my Crop-a-Dile & adhered one each side to the top of the bag.

After I filled it with Chocolates, I tied 3 pieces of ribbon though the top.

The greeting was stamped direct onto Whisper White Cardstock using Old Olive Ink & adhered to the centre of the bag.

A really easy & quick project.

Supplies –

Stamp Set – Perfect Punches

Ink – Old Olive

Cardstock – Old Olive, Whisper White

DSP – Letters to Santa

Punches – Sallop Ede, Round Tab

Ribbons – 1/8″ Taffeta – Old Olive, 1/4″ Grosgrain – Whisper White, Chocolate Chip

2nd Calender…

Published on November 28, 2011June 9, 2014 by Vicky Wright1 Comment

I am a day late in posting my 2nd calender, but better later than never. This one is a little different from the one posted 2 days ago.

I randomly stamped images over the pages of the calender using Riding Hood Red & Baja Breeze Inks. Ensuring all pages were squareed away nice & evenly, using my Handheld Punch, I punched 3 holes into the top of the calender about 1.5cm from each end & 1 cm down from the top. I applied 3 White Brads through the holes & adhered to the piece of A4 Whisper White Cardstock which had been adhered to a piece of Cardboard from the DSP Papers with Sticky Strip.

I created the background for the top of my calender by stamped random images onto Whisper White Cardstock using Riding Hood Red & Baja Breeze Inks.

The stamp set is a 2-step stamp set, but for the background, I only used the outline stamp. I wanted the background to be sort of clean looking.

Deciding that I wanted my 3-D flowers to filled in, I used both the outline & the filler stamps to create my flowers to be adhered over the background.

I stamped 3 large flowers onto Whisper White Cardstock using Baja Breeze Ink, cut them out & adhered over the stamped images using SU Dimensionals.

I stamped a number of smaller flowers onto Whisper White Cardstock using Riding Hood Ink, cut around the images & again adhered randomly to the stamped images using SU Dimensionals.

Using the Boho Blossoms Punch, I punched 3 flowers with Baja Breeze Cardstock, adhered to the centre of the larger flowers with Crystal Effects & adhered Basic Pearls to all the centres of the 3-D flowers.

This piece was adhered to a piece of Riding Hood Red with Sticky Strip & finally to the top of the calender.

Supplies –

Stamp Set – Flower Fancy

Ink – Baja Breeze, Riding Hood Red

Cardstock – Whisper White, Riding Hood Red, Cardboard from DSP Papers

Punches – Boho Blossom, Handheld Punch

Accessories – Crystal Effects, Sticky Strip, Basic Pearls, SU Dimensionals

Until next time, Enjoy!

2012…

Published on November 26, 2011June 9, 2014 by Vicky Wright1 Comment

We created calenders last Friday for next year. These calendars are magnetic, so they are able to be hung on your fridge or if you wanted, punch a couple of holes in the top, add some ribbon & hang on your wall. So many possibilies.

I created the calender on the computer, but wanted an A5 size so that I could easily use it to record everyday living – appointments, birthdays, workshops, etc. I think it has worked out well. Another thing you could do, is stamp all your birthdays in one stamp & colour, appointments in another, public holidays another & so on……

I have already given this calender to a cousin of mine, which will suit her kitchen perfectly!

I will post the second one I did tomorrow & will probably give it away too, which means I will have to create another for myself.

I randomly stamped images onto the calender pages using Marina Mist & Soft Suede Inks. I also stamped off on some of the images to give it a little of a different look.

Ensuring I had all pages squared away neatly, using my Handheld Punch, I punched 3 holes along the top of the calender, about 1.5cm in from both sides & 1 cm down from the top. I added 3 Rhinestone Brads through the holes.

I adhered a piece of Soft Suede Cardstock to a piece of cardboard from a pack of DSP Papers, which had been cut back to A4 size, using Sticky Strip. This will give you a little more strength for your calender. I then adhered the pages to the bottom of the board, only applying adhesive to the top part of the calender. This way, come next year, all you have to do is tear off the last page, print out a new calender & adhere to the same board.

I embossed 2 pieces each of Very Vanilla & Marina Mist Cardstocks using my Bigshot & the Embossing Folder – Finial Press. I was going to add pockets to the calender using these embossed pieces, but thought better of it as they would have either got stuck in the pockets or stay there permanently, so I created false pockets.

I matched the pattern of the 2 embossed pieces, added a thin piece of Marina Mist Cardstock, along with a gathered piece of Crochet Trim Ribbon to the Very Vanilla pieces & adhered them to a piece of Marina Mist Cardstock.

I then repeated the same step except with the piece of Marina Mist Cardstock & adhered it to a piece of Very Vanilla Cardstock.

Both pieces were then adhered to the top of the board using Sticky Strip.

I stamped 8 flowers onto Very Vanilla Cardstock, 4 using Marina Mist Ink, & 4 using Soft Suede Ink. I cut around the images, adhered them to the embossed cardstock with SU Dimensionals & adhered Basic Pearls to the centre of the flowers.

If you wanted, you could easily add a photo to the piece of embossed Very Vanilla, as there is heaps of room to do so. Better still, add a photo to the top of your calender & decorate. As I stated previously, the possibilities for this type of calender is endless!

Supplies –

Stamp Set – Vintage Vogue

Ink – Soft Suede, Marina Mist

Cardstock – Very Vanilla, Marina Mist, Soft Suede, Cardstock from DSP Papers

Embossing Folder – Finial Press

Ribbon – Crochet Trim – Victoria

Accessories – Basic Pearls, SU Dimensionals, Sticky Strip, Rhinestone Brads – Light Blue, Bigshot

Until tomorrow when I post the 2nd calender, Enjoy!

For Dad…

For a bit of a change, thought I would post the card & box I created for my Dad’s birthday. He loves Scorched Peanuts, so instead of just giving them in a bottle, I decided to go with a box & put them in celleophane…..

I cased the card from Christine Blain sometime ago, but was waiting for the right occasion to use it! Christine does some lovely work!

I created my box from scratch, but there are heaps of different types of boxes in blog land. I just got a bit lazy & didn’t look. I was happy with the final result as was Dad, especially the Scorched Peanuts!!!!! He couldn’t wait to get into them.

Supplies –

Stamp Set – Extreme Elements, Happiest Birthday Wishes

Ink – Baja Breeze, Riding Hood Red

Cardstock – Baja Breeze, Riding Hood Red, Whisper White

Punches – Large Star, Small Star (Retired), Scallop Edge Border

Embossing Folder – Square Lattice

Ribbon – 1/4″ Grsograin – Whisper White

Accessories – Sticky Strip, SU Dimensionals, Basic Rhinestones, Bigshot, Crystal Effects,

Until next time, Enjoy!

A Tissue, A Tissue…

Published on October 19, 2011June 9, 2014 by Vicky Wright2 Comments

… I have seen these Tissue Boxes around the blog world & thought it about time I tired my hand at one.

I created a basic template using Pretty in Pink Cardstock. After glueing my pieces together, I cut 4 pieces of DSP slightly smaller than the actual box, so that I still had a small edge of coloured Cardstock showing around the edges & adhered to the sides of the box. I then adhered the final edges together to form the box.

Using the Scallop Trim Border, I punched along one edge of a strip of Pumpkin Pie Cardstock & adhered to the bottom of the box.

I cut a round circle in the top of the lid with my Bigshot & Circles Die, cut & adhered to form the top & sponged around the top edge & circle with Pretty in Pink Ink & a sponge.

I again punched a strip of Pumpkin Pie Cardstock, punched along one side with the Scallop Trim Border Punch & adhered to along the bottom of the lid. I adhered Brown ribbon over the top of the border going right around the lid. I tied a double bow off to one side to finish the top off.

I adhered another piece of the same ribbon – a little narrower – around the middle of the box, cut 2 each of the same lace DSP, adhered them to the middle of the ribbon on all 4 sides using a Mini-Glue Dot & applied a Basic Pearl in the middle of each doiley.

Supplies –

Stamp Set – Nil

Ink – Pretty in Pink

Cardstock – Pretty in Pink, Pumpkin Pie

DSP – Flirtatious Speciality

Punches – Scallop Trim Border

Dies – Circles # 2

Accessories – Sticky Strip, Mini-Glue Dots, Tombow Glue, Basic Pearl, Bigshot, Sponge
