Pretty Packaging for the Holidays
If you’re like me you love to have pretty packages all wrapped up for Christmas. And if you are also anything like me you have a ton of beautiful Designer Series Paper just begging to be used! So why not use all that pretty paper to create beautiful, coordinating packaging for all your holiday gifts?
It’s so easy to create pretty coordinating packaging with products from Stampin’ Up! With just a few scorelines and a little C.P.A. (cut, paste assemble) you can have beautiful gift bags, tags, and cards ready to go this holiday season!
Yesterday I showed you how to make a gift bag from two 12″ x 12″ pieces of Designer Series (patterned) Paper along with a coordinating gift tag and greeting card. Let’s take a look at what I made.
Here’s the video I posted to my Crafty Klock YouTube channel showing how easy it is to make all the pieces. Just click on the “Watch on YouTube” button in the lower left to watch (and please be sure to subscribe to my channel! Thanks).
