I have been seeing this project all over Pinterest… but as a dinky treat holder, so today I am super-sizing it and making a fun Cutlery Wrap for you Christmas table!

Christmas Countdown Super Sized Treat Pockets Video Tutorial using Merry Little Christmas Designer Series Paper from Stampin' Up!

These are a little extravagant… they use a WHOLE sheet of 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper, but I think they are so worth it. Particularly with this pack of DSP, this is Merry Little Christmas, the perfect mix of festive prints and generic patterns in Old Olive, Basic Black and Whisper White. It is certainly one of my Christmas Top Picks this year! I love it!

The wraps are super simple to put together and you could do 6 or 8 for your Christmas table in minutes. When I was talking to James about these he suggested adding some tissue paper for some extra dimension which would totally finish these off! I’m seeing maybe gold or silver napkins in these….

Measurements:

Designer Series Paper – 12 x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm0

Fold in half, diagonally, corner to corner

Then, with the folded, flat edge facing you, take on of the corners and fold it across. Creating a second flat edge, about halfway up your triangle. Fold the second corner over to match.

These don’t require any adhesive, as you then fold the top layer of the top of the triangle down, which holds the other two folds in place

(I think I probably explain this better in the video!)

These wraps are finished with a touch of stamping using Merry Little Labels and some die cutting with my favourite combination; Stitched Shapes Framelits and the Layering Circles.

What are you planning for your Christmas table this year?

Global Design Project Merry Christmas Card using Snowflake Sentiments from Stampin' Up!

StampinByHannah Global Design Project 113 Colour Challenge

I have NO idea what has happened this morning, I wrote a blog post, I published it, and then it magically disappeared! I have no idea what happened, other than the fact that when I went to copy the link the post was gone! I know that you will already have had this post in your email inboxes….and I am sorry for it appearing again.

I LOVE this colour combination from the Global Design Project this week. It screamed Christmas at me and so a Christmas card is what I made!

Global Design Project Colour Combination

I have a bit of a thing at the moment for colouring Designer Series Paper, and I have recently pulled out all of the Designer Series Paper from the Autumn / Winter catalogue and put it on my desk so it gets used before it retires! So the top piece of paper was this fabulous pattern from Merry Little Christmas, and I took my Sponge Brayer to it with some Pear Pizzazz to create a fun ombre effect.

Merry Christmas Card using Patterned Paper and Die Cuts from Stampin' Up!

The die cuts are from Pretty Pines, and are die cut in the colours from the challenge. They are adhered to the card front with Fine-Tip Glue. I actually made this card twice (ironic seeing as I have had to blog it twice too!) as I wasn’t happy with the first sentiment. This version has the sentiment from Snowflake Sentiments stamped in Cherry Cobbler and punched with the Everyday Label punch, while the first one was in Pool Party.

The card is finished with a few loops of Silver Metallic Thread and a scattering of Cherry Cobbler and Silver Metallic Enamel Shapes.
