I have been playing a bit with the Surfing Santa set this week. This one is a great one for our warm, sunny Christmas.
I had this idea with this one to have the gifts look like they were tossed up on the waves. This is the card. I have to say though it wasn’t quite what was in my head. Something is not quite right. But maybe it’s an idea for when you use this set.
The paper is from the Reindeer Days pack which works ok with it.
This is the Surfing Santa Stamp Set.
Very cool isn’t it. Not just for Christmas though. I think the wave and the sun would be great with the Beach Day stamp set. I must try that.

A Triangle Box would have to be one of the easiest type of boxes to make I think. No gluing. Just cut and score and fold.
Triangle Boxes have been around for some time. I used to make them a lot way back when I first started with Stampin’ Up! – 16 years ago!
I was reminded of them recently so pulled it out to make for a recent class. I wanted to share it with you.
These are using the Green and Gold Specialty Designer Series Paper. Seen Here.
The Green one was decorated with the Golden Greenery Dies and the sentiment from the Greetings of the Season. The Gold one was using the Reindeer Dies available in the upcoming Mini Catalogue.
With this particular Triangle Box you can make it any size you like. The length needs to be double the width. For this one it is 20cm x 10cm (8″x4″).
You can follow along with the Video. Find it on my Youtube if it is not showing here.
This card is one of the cards we made at our Christmas in July event last weekend. This one uses the Frosted Forest Bundle.
While this bundle does have the masks this card just uses the stamps and dies.
Firstly stamping 3 trees on the white card mat. Basic Beige has a subtle green tinge to it making it work really well with the colour tones on this card. Just a tip: Stamp the centre tree first and then stamp the other 2 either side. That helps them to be more centred.
The larger tree was stamped on Old Olive card in Old Olive ink and then diecut. The sentiment is from the Greetings of the Season stamp set and diecut with one of the dies from the die set.
Adding a little strip of patterned paper adds an extra element to a very simple card. The paper is from the Flowering Zinnias Paper pack.
This is the Greetings of the Season Bundle. There are a variety of greetings for the festive sesason you can put together or use just on there own. They are in 2 different font styles. I particularly like the die shapes. You can use them for any occasion. And they have a stitched edge!! Don’t we like that.
This one is the Golden Greenery Bundle. With traditional images of greenery and bells and berries. There are a number of co-ordinating dies for these too.
These are available as Online Exclusives. They can be ordered online or ordered directly in my store. HERE
Last weekend was my Christmas in July event. Lots of festive fun and crafting.
I will share the projects over the time but in this post I thought I would share the Goodie Bags everyone received.
They were just simple white Lunch Sack/Paper type bags. They had some of the Graceful Greenery Vellum and Berries and Pearls Adhesives. Along with some Christmas goodies. And chocolate. Must have chocolate. 🙂
For the bags I diecut the paper using the Perennial Postage Dies. It was a wide enough strip that was to have the bottom edge over the paper and the rest of the strip went through the inside of the die to lie on top. If that makes sense. Just so the bottom edge would be cut. The paper was retired paper from last year.
The label was diecut from the Greetings of the Seaon dies and the words were from the stamp set. To finish I diecut a green leaf spray with the Golden Greenery Dies and a Pearl to finish.
Stop back again and I will share the projects.
Happy Crafting,
Jenny

I’m a little late to the party with this post. Life got away before Christmas to share these BUT… I thought I would share them anyway. You could save them or file them away for inspiration for next year. 🙂
These are some fairly quick Christmas Tags you can whip them up for your Christmas Gifts. You may even use some ideas for tags for other occasions.
We created these in my last class for the year. It was fun! Classes are on a little break now but will be back in the New Year.
For these tags we used Sending Cheer, Trucking Along and Cottage Wreaths.
I hope they can inspire you for later creating.
Happy Crafting,
Jenny
