Stampin’ Up! Rectangle Tins

Happy Monday! 

Before sharing my projects with you today, I wanted to let you know that the new January-June 2021 Mini Catalog is coming soon and will be available on January 5th.  If you’ve ordered from me in the last six months, I ordered a catalog for you (and the Sale-a-Bration brochure) from Stampin’ Up! yesterday.  It will come directly from Stampin’ Up! and they will begin to mail them on December 9th. If you don’t want to wait until January to buy products from this jam-packed catalog, consider joining my team by purchasing the $99 Starter Kit.  You’ll receive $125 in product for $99 and it will ship free.  One of Starter Kit perks is that you can preorder products from the new catalog early!  If you’d to purchase the Starter Kit, click here.  Feel free to email me with any questions you might have!

 

 

Our Rectangle Tins are a fun way to package a gift card (or any small gift).  I wrapped a 8″ x 2-1/2″ piece of Poinsettia Place Designer Series Paper around the tin and then used our Gold 3/8″ Metallic-Edge Ribbon to “tie” it up.  To open the tin, the recipient just needs to slip off the sleeve.  The sentiment was stamped onto Very Vanilla cardstock using the stamp set, Wrapped in Christmas, and was cut out using the Rectangular Postage Stamp Punch. As you can see from the picture below, a gift card fits inside perfectly! 

 

 

I wrapped this next tin with Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper and wrapped our Silver 3/8″ Metallic-Edge Ribbon around it.  The sentiment was stamped onto Whisper White cardstock using Pacific Point ink. The ribbon will need to be removed first to open the tin.

 

 

Each package of tins come in a four pack and they are food safe! It’s such a quick and easy, but cute, way to wrap up a gift!

Stampin’ Up! Happiest of Birthdays

I needed a masculine birthday card this week and created it using the stamp set Happiest of Birthdays and In Good Taste Designer Series Paper.

 

Happiest of Birthdays Stampin Up

 

Happiest of Birthdays

 

I started with a base of Smoky Slate cardstock and then added a layer of Whisper White cardstock and then a layer of In Good Taste Designer Series Paper. I struggle bit with masculine cards but this was the perfect paper to use! 

 

 

In Good Taste Designer Series Paper

 

I stamped the sentiment in Smoky Slate ink using the stamp set Happiest of Birthdays and then cut it out using the Stitched Rectangle Dies. I cut another larger rectangle out of Smoky Slate cardstock and layered the two pieces together.  Stampin’ Dimensionals were added to back to give the card some dimension.  I finished by adding three Elegant Faceted Gems to the front. If you’d like to make today’s card, you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List.

Happy Thanksgiving!

 

Happy Thanksgiving Day to everyone in the United States. This holiday feels very different as many of us are not gathering together with our families but there are many things to be grateful for. Mark and I will be having a very quiet Thanksgiving but we’re going all out in the food department and making all our favorites.

2020 has brought challenges to all of us. This past year I’ve had so many of you reach out to me and I’m very thankful for all of you! 

From my family to yours, Happy Thanksgiving! Be safe, healthy and happy!
