We have arrived to our last week for our 12 Weeks of Christmas Series. Our Week 12 project is a quick and easy Treat Bag.
For this one I have used the Green and Gold Specialty Designer Series Paper.
Here’s a close-up of the tag.
A tag was diecut from White card but also from the Graceful Greenery Vellum. I used the Greetings of the Season stamps and dies. Add a stamped leaf from the Golden Greenery stamps and dies and then also diecut leaves. One from Shaded Spruce and the other from Soft Sea Foam card.
It’s nice to dress up some chocolates in a cute bag. All you need is a clear plastic or Cello bag and some pretty paper. I share some tips in how to create them in the video below.
I hope you have enjoyed the projects through our 12 Weeks of Christmas Series and that they have inspired you. Some would work for any occasion so file them away for upcoming ideas.
With just a simple scoring on the front of the card and folding it back you create a Z-Fold Card. Then instead of adding your card mat and paper to the front of a card you can adhere it just to the left hand side panel.
The gorgeous paper is the Season of Green and Gold Specialty Paper. I have used so much of this beautiful paper already. Maybe even on to my second pack … The Paper is available as an Online Exclusives online and can sometimes be missed. You can check my store.
The stamps are the Golden Greenery stamps and dies also available online. I love how these ones work and I think you could use these leaf images for any occasion card. That would work. The sentiments are from the Greetings of the Season Bundle.
This is the paper if you haven’t noticed it. You can see it more -> HERE.
Try this idea to mix up your crafting. It’s an easy variation to try.
Happy Crafting,
Jenny

Back with Week 4 for our 12 Weeks of Christmas series.
This week we are looking at the Cut and Flip Method for our Christmas cards. This method can be a great one for making multiple cards at one time too. It’s very quick and easy.
You can just use this idea to make as a single card too.
You just need some gorgeous paper with co-ordinating patterns on each side of the paper. Watch the video below to find out how.
I have used the Season of Green and Gold Specialty Designer Series Paper on this one. And also used the Golden Greenery Stamps and Dies and the Greetings of the Season Stamps and Dies.
At the end of the video I share another version with different papers.
I will send out the measurements in next week’s Newsletter. If you would like the written version you can sign up for my free newsletters. You will see the link in the right hand column on my blog.
This is the card that was made.
Happy Christmas creating,
Jenny

Today’s card is a cool Fun Fold. It is a Front Flap Card. It has an added flap that you could add a surprise inside.
This card was shared to me by a Demonstrator friend Linny. I loved the card and wanted to share it with you.
Here is the card.
Lift up the Flap.
Open the card.
Under the flap would be a great to add a Numbered birthday perhaps or even add a pocked for a Gift Card.
I have a video for you to follow along.
I used the Season of Green and Gold Specialty Paper. Also the Golden Greenery Stamp Set and the Greetings of the Season Stamp Set. It makes a special Christmas card to send. This could be used for so many different occasions though.
I share another one version at the end of the video so be sure to check out that one.
Follow along and I hope you get to make one.

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
