Thinking about Christmas? Or how about a birthday party? These little Tiny Treat Boxes (135829) are 2 x 2 x 2 and can be used for lots of things. Here I simply copied the idea on page 12 of the Holiday Mini. I used the 25 Days stamp set and stacked them into a tree. But I see lots of ideas for the boxes and stamp set. This will be a great set for Project Life! But for this project – it’s a Count Down to Christmas. Now I have plenty of time to find things to fill it 🙂 Hugs, Fran
My favorite new thing in the Holiday Mini? The Gift Box Punch Board of course! This wonderful tool makes the cutest boxes is many sizes – the largest being 4 x 4. Here I used the new Under the Tree Specialty Designer Series paper to create a Christmas box. The paper is really heavy – perfect for these boxes! Around the sides I added trees. There is a new punch in the mini that makes trees – but these were made with the banner punch. I topped it off with the new Mingle All the Way stamp set and the Banner Framelits.

Boo bags! These cute bags are made with the Polka Dot Ta A Bag Gift Bags. I stamped “Boo” with the Larger Than Life Alphabet and made a tag with Freaky Friends. The tag is clipped on with one of the In Color Clothespins. This is the first one I did – then I realized that when filled, the “boo” no longer shows. To fix that, I moved the words up about 1 inch.
And added some bats 🙂

These gift card holders (136662) are so much fun to use! The little fronts (3 7/8 x 3 7/8) are just the right size for cut embellishments. I used the Distressed Dots embossing folder to make the background and then added embossed stars in White and Cherry Cobbler embossing powder. By tucking a little piece of Cherry Cobbler seam binding behind the front, this gift card holder can hang on a tree.

Bright & Beautiful is a new set in the upcoming Holiday Mini – and it’s available as a bundle right now with the Big Shot and Bundles promotion! This is a card I did using it and the new Under the Tree Specialty Designer Series paper. This paper is so heavy it easily holds it own as a card base. However – stamping on the design side did not show up as intended!
I should have used some Whisper White to make the sentiment visible.

Etc – Burlap ribbon, pearls, Star Framelits
I share some more cards using this set this week! Hugs, Fran
