Cards, Boxes and Bags - Oh My!

My first project uses the Sleigh - 3D cut from Maraschino Red - Bazzill Canvas.  I used Killer White Tear-able Tacky Tape to assemble my project.  The images are from the following Heartfelt Creations Sets - Cardinal Family and the Holly Berry Filler set.  The Pine Branch and Pine Cone images were colored with markers and stamped on Vanilla Card stock, then cut with Spellbinders Circle Dies and layered on a Black Circle.  The Cardinal was stamped in Black on Red card stock, then cut using Heartfelt Creations Cardinal Family Die.  The die cut under the circle is from Heartfelt Creations Decorative Butterfly Border Die, which I altered slightly to fit under my circle panels.  I added some Holly and Pine cone embellishments, popped in a candle gift, and tied on a pretty Red Satin Bow/Button Embellishment.  The Button/Bow fits this weeks Tuesday Throwdown Challenge.

My next project is a cute little gift bag featuring the Square Bag #01-Large, cut from Galvanized Silver - Curious Metallic


Before assembling my bag, I Silver Embossed the swirl from Heartfelt Creations Snowflake Medley Swirl Set.  The beautiful snowflake was created using Heartfelt Creations Snowflake Medallions - embossed in Silver on White card stock and cut with the Holly-Ornament Die .  The edges are sponged in Grey, then popped up over the swirl image.  To finish the project, I added some Silver Gems and a Flower Center to the Snowflake, along with some Snowflake stamped tissue paper.

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you enjoyed my projects! Your next stop on the hop is our Guest Designer  Dawn's Blog.
