In the Workshop: December Greetings

Lots of fun creating Christmas crafts this season!  Here’s a peak at some projects that I have been working on during the month of December:

I taught a class at Checkered Cottage in early December where participants completed 4 cards and a treat box.

Christmas Treat Box

Aside from basic layering and stamping techniques, participants learned how to: fold a single sheet of 12×12 paper into a festive treat box, create a banner shape using a square punch, edge paper borders in Krylon/glitter, and create texture by threading ribbon through die cut shapes.

This cute and simple tag adorned a special Christmas package!  I love using twine as garland on this tree punch.

And, finally, I couldn’t resist attempting to make my own thumbprint light garland for a recent post with The Dating Divas.  (Original inspiration for this craft came from Pinterest.)
