I love making papercraft projects other than cards! Don’t get me wrong – I LOVE MAKING CARDS but there’s so many more things you can do with your hobby! Here’s one of the fun ideas I came up with to throw some fun into my team Christmas party! Absolutely anything can be embellished – a big jar of cheddar puffs cannot escape my papercrafting!
I went in search of some type of candy that would make a fun GUESS HOW MANY game for my team Christmas party. I found these at Dollar General – Kroger carries them too. When I’m out shopping I’m always looking for products that will work for papercrafting ideas – these were perfect!
So I went about designing something festive and fun to decorate this rather plain packaging. Here’s what I came up with. The MERRY & BRIGHT bundle and MERRY BOLD & BRIGHT designer series paper fit the bill. I measured the indented center where the label is and cut my DSP.
Dimensions:
- Merry Bold & Bright DSP — 4 1/4″ x 12″ & 4 1/4″ x 10″
- Basic White — 4 3/4″ x 3 1/4″ & scrap
- Poppy Parade — 5″ x 3 1/2″
- Shaded Spruce — scrap
You can see the sparkle on the Blueberry Bushel bulb below – I added Wink of Stella Glitter Brush to all the bulbs – the sparkle is magical.
I also made a matching gift card holder. I thought the container of cheddar puffs would make a fun gift to give to one of my grandkids along with a gift card – SO FUN RIGHT? So this project will serve double duty for me! And since I made up the Christmas Light layer above so I would know what I was doing in my LIVE tonight – I have an extra – great reason to turn it into a card!
Dimensions:
- Parakeet Party — 11″ x 4 1/4″ scored at 1 & 5 1/2″
- Poppy Parade — 5″ x 3 1/2″
- Merry Bold & Bright DSP — 4″ x 4 1/4″, 1 1/4″ x 4″ & 3/4″ x 4″
- Basic White — 4 3/4″ x 3 1/4″ & scrap
- Shaded Spruce — scrap
Here’s another card I made with the sample base I designed – again so I would know what I was doing! I had another layer using the bulbs from a previous project – I just it down to 3″ x 3″, added a layer of Poppy Parade and I have another gift card holder! WHOO HOO!
Dimensions:
- Parakeet Party — 11″ x 4 1/4″ scored at 1 & 5 1/2″
- Poppy Parade — 3 1/4″ x 3 1/4″
- Merry Bold & Bright DSP — 4″ x 4 1/4″, 1 1/4″ x 4″ & 3/4″ x 4″
- Basic White — 3″ x 3″ & scrap
- Shaded Spruce — scrap
STINKIN’ ADORABLE! That’s what the BEST REMEDY KIT is all about! An adorable stamp set is included with the kit – here’s an alternative idea with that set:
Dimensions:
- Tahitan Tide — 4 7/8″ x 3 5/8″ & 1/2″ strip & scrap
- Basic White — 4 3/4″ x 3 1/2″, 3/8″ strip & scrap
I’m using this kit for my monthly card kit – with some extras! You’ll enjoy making 12 cards – 9 from Stampin’ Up! and an additional 3 from me AND a card box for a really cute gift! You’ll find all the details for the class and a registration link here: BEST REMEDY KIT DETAILS.
