Recycled Gift Box Idea with Craftwell

 Hi I am over on the Craftwell Blog....
Hard to believe it is only two days until Christmas!!!!
Are you like me? 
Waiting to the last minute to wrap gifts...
AND
Finding that your are out of paper!!!
WELL
If you find yourself in my shoes, I am going to share with you how to make a pretty package by re-cycle some old gift boxes. 
 First thing you will need to do is get a box, lol.
Then search through your stash of scrapbook papers and find some you would like to work with. 
I am using Teresa Collins Hello Life Collection for my gift box.
 OH MY!!!
Can you see all the different dies I ready to cut on my Cut n Boss!!!
Love that you can cut several at one time, especially when you are in a time crunch! 
Begin by selecting the pattern papers and dies you are going to cut. 
Once selected run through the Cut N Boss using two A plates, B plate, shim and platform. 
Remove papers from dies.
Repeat again for the bow, tree and label.
 Cover the box on all sides with pattern paper. 
Make a mat stack using pattern paper, deco punch the corners, adhere together.
 Border punch patter paper.
Adhere under pattern strip.
Adhere to top of prepared box.
 Adhere mat stack to top of box.
Form bow, adhere to to of mat stack.
Layer the two tree die cuts with pop dots, add to top of box.
Add label to top of pattern paper, fussy cut around label. 
Adhere to top of box. 
Add second label center to label on box with pop dots.
 I hope you have enjoyed my recycle gift box. 
REMEMBER!!!
If you get in a crunch whether at Christmas or any time of the year recycle last years gift boxes into a magical gift. Have a Merry Christmas and I will see you in 2016!!!
2016!!! OH MY!!!!

Merry Christmas With Emerald Creek - Guest Designer

 I am so excited to be a Guest Designer this month for Emerald Creek!!!
Emerald Creek is a lovely Canadian Company that makes and sells stamps and some of the most amazing charms and embellishments I have seen!!!
 Make sure to check out Emerald Creek Store HERE!!!!
 I created a Merry Christmas Card using the Wreath 2 Stamp 
along with Tim Holtz Yuletide Collection. 
 I began by inking a prepackaged doily with Vintage Photo Distress Ink.
 Ink the edges of the Yuletide pattern paper with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. 
Layer Yuletide pattern papers to card base. 
Add prepared doily to top of card base.
 Die cut Yuletide pattern paper and red card stock with Sizzix Framelits Die.
Stamp Emerald Creek Wreath 2 on pattern paper using black ink twice. 
Place on colored image on mat and place on card front with pop dots. 
Fussy cut bow from second colored image and add to top with pop dots. 
 Add border, brad and epherema pieces to bottom of card front. 
Tie red twine to Emerald Creek Candy Cane Charm and add to front of card.
 Don't forget to decorate the inside of your card.
Add a Yuletide pattern paper border and half of an inked prepared doily. 
Stamp Emerald Creek Merry Christmas Stamp to inside of card with black ink.
 Don't you just love all the dimension the stamps and layers give to my card. 
I do....
SO...
I had to make a matching TAG!!!!
 To begin by die cutting 3 tags using Sizzix Tag Die...one in Kraft, one in Yuletide pattern paper and one in red card stock. (this if for the back of the tag)
Ink the Kraft card stock with the Vintage Photo and Fired Brick Red Distress Ink.
 Stamp "Merry Christmas" to top of prepared tag with Emerald Creek Merry Christmas Stamp and black ink.
 Ink edges of prepackaged doily using Vintage Photo Distress Ink. 
Adhere smaller doily to front and doily halves to the back of tag. 
Ink edges of pattern tag that has been torn using Vintage Photo Distress Ink.
Adhere to front of tag. 
Ink edges of ephemera and adhere to top of tag.
 Stamp Wreath 2 image to Yuletide pattern paper like you did for the card. 
Fussy cut the wreath. 
Place on tag with pop dots.
 Tie red twine bow to Emerald Creek Candy Cane Charm. Add to top of tag. 
 Make another red twine bow using red twine and Emerald Creek Candy Cane Charm to the top along with Tim Holtz Pine Twine to form holder on your tag.
I hope you have enjoyed my Merry Christmas Card and Tag and hope you try making some for this Christmas season. Make sure to check out Emerald Creek Store...I am so excited to see so many unique and beautiful charms along with special embossing powders. If you love Tim Holtz and Ranger Products well there is a large array of all of these that are available.
