Christmas Petal Cone
This is one of the boxes (could you call this a box?) we will be making at my Gift Boxes class in December. It’s made with the Petal Cone and Snow Flurry die. I had a hard time getting the Bashful Blue to photograph and still look Bashful. There are lots of sweet little details on this pouch, but the photo just would not cooperate with me. Hugs, Fran
Rolling Along
Cased from a card that was shown at Convention, this was so fun to do!
I used 3/4″ wide strips of Snow Festival Designer Series paper (cut at various lengths) and rolled them around a bamboo skewer. Then I sprayed the entire front with Shimmer (alcohol and shimmer frost ink)spray. It sparkles! And since I was watching the election results – and it was a long night – I continued rolling –
Here’s a few hints – I used glue to adhere them – but I’d recommend a glue gun unless you’re very patient. Draw your Christmas tree triangle on your grid paper or a piece of copy paper first. That will help you determine how long to cut each strip. Find any and everything sparkly in your stash to decorate your tree.

Santa Owl
Santa Owls on covered clothespins, holding little Petite Pocket Treats. Thought I’d show you two of them because the one on the right is the one that works best. The Tagged for Christmas tag on the left is too high – making it harder to open the package. To do the tag – Dimensionals are placed just on the bottom so that the flap on the Petite Pocket can just tuck in. Here’s a side view.
Supplies (Tag)
Stamp Set – Tagged for Christmas
Card stock – Real Red, Whisper White
Stampin Write Markers – Real Red, Basic Black, Gumball Green
Etc – 1 1/4 square punch, Scallop Square punch, Petite Pocket die, Argyle embossing folder
Owl
Punches – Owl Punch, Bird punch, Word Window punch, 1/4 square punch
Card stock – Real Red, Basic Black, Whisper White, Daffodil Delight
Perfectly Preserved
I made these to be name tags for my Thanksgiving table following Kay’s directions. They are so cute! The only changes I made were tying the tops with burlap instead of ribbon and adding a way to lift the lid.
(That’s a piece of Word Window punch.) Won’t my table look festive?

Forgot One
Can you stand one more ornament?
Chocolate Chip, Crumb Cake, Brass button.
I’ve had a few questions of how the “full” ornament looks from the side. This is two ornaments put together to make a two sided ornament.
So there you go! I’ll try to move on to something else – but no promises! Hugs, Fran
