Welcome to our Global Stampin’ Creative blog hop! Our theme this month is Gift Wrap! An idea popped into my head for a gift-wrapped Christmas card, so that’s what I did! Do you like it? This group of creative Stampin’ Up! demonstrators comes from all around the world to showcase some creativity and the wonderful products we all love.
Gift Wrapped Christmas Card
This project is easy to make, you just need some pretty paper, a trimmer, and some ribbon! I also think the stamp set Wrapped in Christmas has the perfect words for this card!
You make this by simply cutting two slits in the centre of your paper. I used Toile Tidings, but you can use any papers you like! You can put them where ever you like. Just make sure you’re not going to fold the paper back past the edges of your card.
If you make a couple of pencil marks lining up the edges of your paper onto the card beneath then you can ensure you stamp in the right place. The stamping uses the Write Marker to Stamp Technique to give a two-tone stamped image.
Toile Tidings Gift Wrap
The ribbon is the beautiful Mossy Meadow Diagonal Striped ribbon and although it’s not the right colour, it blends beautifully into the Garden Green.
To make it really look like gift wrapping, you curl the ends and use Glue Dots to stick down the curl. That way it really looks like it’s ribbon that’s been untied from the gift!
