On the Tenth Day of Christmas

Yikes — there are only TWO days left.
I think that means Rudolph is shining his red nose.
I saw this little cutie all over Pinterest and just had to give
him a try using Stampin' Up! punches and framelits.
THIS WAS SO MUCH FUN!!!
A little work getting the hole cut out for the lip balm
but definitely worth it.
Reindeer Lip Balm
I used Real Red for the base — 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"
White White next — 4" x 5 1/4"
Rudolph is Early Espresso — head is Circle Framelit
Muzzle (I think that's what it's called) is Oval Framelit
The background for his eyes is Chocolate Chip punched with the Extra Large Oval Punch
For the eyes — I punched White White with the Large Oval Punch and cut in half
Then I punched Basic Black also with the Large Oval Punch and cut that in half
and layered them, trimming off the excess.
His antlers are from the Tree Builder Punch.

I made up a bunch of these cuties.
Everyone loved receiving them.

On the Ninth Day of Christmas

On the Ninth Day of Christmas…
Everyone is getting anxious and stressed out.
I think I have one more quick shopping trip today and then I'm done.
How about you — are you getting close?
Today's gift is a fun little treat.
I seem to be in a snowman theme this year.
Snowman Hat Candy Holder
This cutie was fun to make.
I cut two black circles with the Circle Framelits.
I glued the circles together to make it stronger.
Next I cut a black strip that is 4 1/4" x 11" — score down the long edge at 1".
Make cuts about every 1/2" up to the 1" score line.
Adhere the short edges of the strip together forming a tube.
Fold all the cut tabs towards the center — put glue all around
and attach to the circles.  I set a punch on top to help hold it down
for just a minute or so to make sure it stuck good.
I wrapped a 1 1/2" strip of designer paper around.
I used the Peaceful Pines stamp set and Garden Green ink for
the tree and cut out with the coordinating Perfect Pines Framelits.
Attach the tree to the front of the top hat over a
Silver Doily — of course I used dimensionals.
I stamped the Christmas Cheer from the Cheer All Year stamp set.
I put candy in a Cello Bag — tied with the 1/8" Striped Ribbon
and added the banner.

What a fun treat to receive.

On the Eighth Day of Christmas

On the Eighth Day of Christmas…..
I don't know about you but I give out plenty of gift cards for presents.
I want those cards to be like a present.
Today's gift is a card and gift card holder all in one.
Snowman Gift CardThis snowman is quick to make and it makes it fun to receive that gift card.
I used the note card for this — they come in a package of 20 and envelopes
are included so it's a great deal.
First I rounded all four corners with the Project Life Corner Round Punch
I used the Softly Falling embossing folder on the front of the card.
I used the 1/2" Circle Punch to snip out just a bit on the left side of the
card to put the ribbon through.
The eyes were punched out using the 3/4" Circle Punch — I added
the highlights with the White Gel Pen.
For the nose, I started with a piece of Tangelo Twist card stock
that was 1 1/4" x 5/8" and cut it in half on a diagonal (I got two noses from one piece).
I glued those on with the Fine Tip Glue.
Snowman Gift Card Inside
For the inside of the card I cut a piece of Whisper White card stock
that was 1 3/4" x 3 3/8" — round the bottom two corners.
I stamped "SNOW WAY!" and "Merry Christmas!" both from
Snow Place stamp set with Lost Lagoon ink.
I used the snowflakes from the Snow Place stamp set and used
Soft Sky ink.  I put glue on the bottom and two sides (don't put
glue on the top).

Just like that you are ready to insert your gift card.
Check that off you list of things to get done.
