Christmas Gift Tags!!!

Posted on

Is it all about the gift or the gift packaging?!?! For my regular presents, I don’t tend to add a decorated tag. In fact, I usually write the name in the fold on the end and have no tag. BUT I love to create fun Christmas Gift Tags for neighbor gifts and teacher gifts!

Christmas Gift Tags Kit, www.LaurasStampPad.com

The Stampin’ Up! Christmas Gifting Kit is super cute and simple. It makes 3 each of these 3 tags and there are tons of supplies leftover. These tags have a little pocket on the backside. I’ll be honest, I’m not sure what that pocket is for. Is it for money? A Gift Card? Seems a little small for a gift card. Thoughts?!?!

Christmas Gifting Kit Stampin' Up, www.LaurasStampPad.com

My favorite thing about these tags is the whole peek-a-boo look with the die cut tree, star, and deer and then the printed pocket tag in the bag peeking through. I love it! BONUS: Those die cut images can then be used for additional tags.

Alternative Christmas Gifting Kit Options, www.LaurasStampPad.com

Look what I created with the leftover pieces and some Basic White Cardstock. I used the Very Best Trio Punch for some added detail and a slot for the ribbon! How amazing is that?!?! So the Christmas Gifting Kit creates 9 tags but I easily created an additional 9! Woot Woot!

I decorated the inside for even more birthday fun! Also, don’t worry about the greetings because Stampin’ Up provides extras in case there is a mistake or just so you can create more fun cards with the leftovers! Either way it puts me at ease. I feel like when there is an exact amount, I’m bound mess at least 1 up. If I have plenty, I seem to nail each one! It’s probably a mental thing!

Hello Dear Friend!!!

Posted on

I love All Inclusive Kits because they are perfect for gifting to someone or for a beginner stamper to get their feet wet!! They come with everything you need to make the cards except scissors. The Hello Dear Friend Card Kit is my current favorite because of the flowers and the AMAZING GREETINGS!

Hello Dear Friend Stampin' Up All Inclusive Card Kit, www.LaurasStampPad.com

I love the greetings so much for #happymail cards or even thank you notes. My favorite actual card from the bunch is the mini purple thank you card! There is just something about the flower bunch in front of what looks like a window that I love!!!

Easy Mini Thank You Card, www.LaurasStampPad.com

Don’t you think it looks like a church window or something??? I just love it and it’s super simple. TIP: Be sure to stamp the greeting up high so that it fits. As you can see in my sample, the Y cuts off a bit at the bottom!

#happymail Card, www.LaurasStampPad.com

This card is my 2nd favorite because that greeting makes me smile!!! TIP: Add adhesive to the middle and lower left corner of the vellum so it will be covered up with the flowers and greeting! The purple flower was adhered on the card flat but the pink and yellow one are popped up with Stampin’ Dimensionals!

Hello Dear Friend Mini Card, www.LaurasStampPad.com

This card is quick and simple. The perfect size for a little note to drop with an item on someone’s porch, desk, or even hand it to them! Just a little something to brighten your day! Who wouldn’t love that?!?!?

Flowers & Diamonds Greeting Card, www.LaurasStampPad.com

I created this card with the vellum diamond both up and down. Honestly, I couldn’t really tell the difference like it should be one way or the other. It looks amazing both ways and the flower and greeting sort of take away from the fact that it’s a diamond shape!

Which one is your favorite?? Let me know in the comment below! If you would like to see me create all of these cards, check out this video! I’ll be honest evenings and this pregnancy made my stamping a bit of a hot mess but not every stamping session is perfect! LOL

Christmas Gift Idea!!!

Posted on

I think I have found the fabulous Christmas Gift idea for this year. It is the Purple Posies Card Kit!!! This card kit has 16 total cards in it and the box is super cute and fabulous! Create these cards and give it as a gift to anyone this holiday season!!!

Christmas Gift Idea 2020, www.LaurasStampPad.com

Aren’t these cards beautiful?!?!?! And look at that fabulous gold foil and decorated box!!! I love it all and think I will enjoy crafting these kits and giving them as gifts!

Get Well Purple Posies Card Kit, www.LaurasStampPad.com

This is my favorite card. That ribbon wiggled back and forth under the greeting is super cool and it was easy to do!

Homemade Card Kit, www.LaurasStampPad.com

This is my second favorite card because I love the detail on that greeting banner. It’s so detailed and really makes it pop! I think I could have passed on the ribbon behind the greeting but I followed the directions as is!

Greeting Card Craft Kit, www.LaurasStampPad.com

This card is just stunning with all of the flowers and that fabulous gold foil bling! I found that putting the purple twine bow below the greeting made it pop more without getting in the way!

Give the Gift of Cards, www.LaurasStampPad.com

Just because I’m posting these cards last doesn’t mean I don’t like them. I love them all. I did 2 of these cards with the twine behind the greeting and 2 without. I’m honestly not sure which one I prefer. Mixing it up is always fun though! What do you think?

If you are looking for great Christmas Gift Ideas, take a look at card kits! You can gift them all created or gift all inclusive kits so the recipient can enjoy crafting too. Better yet, give the gift with a certificate of time with you to create it together. Spending time together, talking, laughing, and making memories is the best gift of all…..in my opinion!

Pajama Party!!!

Posted on

Good morning and happy Monday!!! Why are pajamas so comfy and fabulous?? I’m guessing because no one typically seems them so they are the most comfortable, soft, worn clothing ever. Or maybe it’s because they remind us of sleep and relaxing. Who knows but I am bringing that fabulous feeling to stamping. We are having a PAJAMA PARTY!!!

Pajama Party, www.LaurasStampPad.com

Next, Thursday, July 23rd at 8 p.m. CT, let’s all gather together on a Facebook Live and stamp in our cozy pjs!!! This is a little segment I like to call Laura’s Dose of Stampin’ Therapy!

During the Pajama Party next week, I will be creating the Simply Citrus All Inclusive Kit which has a total of 15 cards – 3 each of 5 designs! Since this kit is all inclusive, that means it comes with everything you need except scissors! Anyone can create it! There are directions in the kit but of course I will creating it Live so you can always ask questions then as well!

All Inclusive At Home Card Kit, www.LaurasStampPad.com

These cards are so bright and fresh looking! The greetings are perfect for any occasion. Many of them are generic which is what I have been using the most lately. Just a little note to drop in the mail to someone saying I am thinking of them or wanted to brighten their day! #Happymail

You might not be able to see them very well in these photos but there are little vellum flowers that add a fabulous texture and flare to each of these cards. If you wanted a more masculine look, you could always leave them off too!

I can’t wait to create the rest of this kit with all of you on my Facebook Live Pajama Party on July 23rd at 8 p.m. CT! If you would like to stamp along with me, click the link below to get your Simply Citrus All Inclusive Card Kit and we can all stamp together!
