Countdown to Christmas 2022 - Week 11

Our penultimate Countdown to Christmas 2022 project is this fun parcel card. It is also the 4th and final project from my Crack Your Christmas Cards Class.

As with the other projects from the class, this design uses the Spruced Up Stamp Set and coordinating Spruced Up Outline Dies. It also uses the Real Red & Garden Green Ribbon Combo Pack and Seasonal Sequins too.

I have been using this design a lot recently and love how versatile it is.

The project uses 3 colours from the class colour palette, Crushed Curry, Real Red and Garden Green.

Presents are stamped across the background before the ribbon ‘wrapping’ is added.

Two circles cut using the Layering Circles Dies are then layered together, one with a sentiment stamped onto it.

Next, it was time to create the candy canes. As I wanted them to face in opposite directions, rather than the one way in the stamp set, I used a different method.

First, the cane shapes were cut out using the dies and laid next to each other straight edge to straight edge. Then, using the striped bauble image in the stamp set, the candy canes were given their stripes.

These were then glued together and a star was attached using a Glue Dot, before the whole piece was raised up using Dimensionals.

Finally, Seasonal Sequins are dotted across the project.

Don’t miss out on your chance to get your hands on all the retiring products from the July-December Mini Catalogue. Items are only available while stocks last.

Here are all of the projects from the class together. Do you have a favourite?
