Robin's Creative Cottage Challenge #4: Holiday Treat Packaging

Hi and welcome to another fun challenge from Robin's Creative Cottage! This week we are creating Holiday Treat Packaging. There are SO many fun options for gift and treat packaging that I have been seeing this season, it was hard to choose.  I settled on this cute gift box because it is so versatile- you can fill it with any kinds of treats- cookies, candies, small gifts or even cards. And the options for decorating are endless. Here is my project:

I found the tutorial for this gift box at Split Coast Stampers. You can find it HERE. The paper and chipboard accents are from KaiserCraft. The sentiment background shape is cut from Elegant Edges and the stamp is from Robin's Gingerbread Holiday stamp set. These stamps are SO perfect for holiday gift and treat giving! (get your own set HERE!). I added some diamond stickels for a little more sparkle. And lastly, I added some tinsel string from Prairie Bird Boutique. I just love this for holiday projects. Here is another view of the project:

I hope you have enjoyed my project and I look forward to seeing all of your fun holiday treat packaging!

Robin's Creative Cottage Challenge: Let it Sparkle

Hello everyone and welcome to the first ChallengeTuesday over at Robin's Creative Cottage! This week our theme is 'Let it Sparkle'- use glitter, jewels, or any bling! I had a fun time with this theme, because I love the sparkly! I created a card for this challenge:

All the paper is from KaiserCraft. I cut the trees out of a patterned paper from the collection as they had some sparkle already in them- hopefully the photo does it justice. I cut a frame at 1 1/4" from Elegant Edges for my stamp- from Robin's Gingerbread Holiday set. I added some stickles for a little sparkle on the stars in the stamp image. I then added some tinsel string from Prairie Bird boutique (this stuff is awesome for holiday projects, I wish I had discovered it before I did all my Christmas cards!) and some glitter brads for a little more sparkle! Here is a close up of the Stamp sentiment- one of my favorites from Robin's collection:

I hope you enjoyed my project, and can't wait to see how you all Let it Sparkle! If you would like some of these amazing and fun stamp sets for yourself,  please visit here.

Robin's Creative Cottage Stamp Release Day 2

Hi everybody and welcome back!! I hope you are enjoying all the great projects featuring the new stamp sets from Robin's Creative Cottage. Today I am featuring the Gingerbread Holiday set. These stamps have lots of cute phrases that would be perfect for holiday gift giving. I chose to make a little gift bag that you could fill with treats to give to a friend or neighbor:

The bag is cut from Plantin Schoolbook. I just pressed the 'fit to page' button and it cut it at 7 1/2". The tag is also cut from Plantin Schoolbook at 3". I then cut a wreath from Joys of the Season.  I used the 'flip' key so that I could use both sides of my patterned paper without having to flip it on my mat. The wreath was cut at 4".  I added some bling to the tag and tied it to my gift bag with some ribbon.  Here is a close-up of the stamp on the tag:

I added some glossy accents to make the sentiment really stand out.

I hope you have enjoyed my project, and make sure to check out all the projects from our talented design team on Robin's blog. And be sure to come back on Friday for our Stamp Release Celcbration Blog Hop for a chance to win one of these fun stamp sets!
