Festival of Christmas - Last Minute

December 20, 2019

So Senitmental (2 of 3).jpg

Hello again! Welcome to our last Crafty Festival Of Christmas blog hop. A refresher … I am making and sharing holiday projects every Friday until Christmas in an event my friends and I are calling the ‘CRAFTY Festival of Christmas’. Every week we will feature a different theme.

Check out our previous hops:

  1. Snarky or Snowy cards

  2. Fancy fold or Mass production projects

  3. This week our theme is Gift card holders or tags

  4. I missed this one but you can start here

  5. Last Minute Lucy

Neighbor gifts always seem to be the last project I tackle. This year I made a double batch of caramel and packaged in disposable case. I normally cut and wrap each caramel individually however due to lack of time I opted to give out containers full of caramel. Caramel recipe is at the end of this post. Yum!

Yummilicious, such a funny non-word sentiment. This stamp image is from the stamp set called ‘So Sentimental’. This set will be available Jan 3 from Stampin’ Up! Full supply list can be found below.

Blog Roll:

1. Tania Cordie.
2. Tanya Boser
3. Linda Van Wely
4. Lynnea Hollendonner.
5. Charlet Mallett. (You are here)

Here’s a look at how I created this quick card using the Beach Time scrapbook kit. I die cut the large postage frame from 2-tone cardstock and folded the edges for a different look. 👀 yay for white gel pens. They help add a fun & easy details. #stampinup #beachtime #cardmaker #cardmakingreel #sendingsalutations
Sunshine & palm trees! 🌴 The beach scene on this card was created using the Beach Boardwalk (166840) stickers and papers. @global_design_project this a theme challenge over #gdp539 - play along! 

The sentiment is from a brand spanking new greet

The sentiment is from a brand spanking new greeting set (Sending Salutations) available in May, courtesy of prize patrol at OnStage. I returned from Long Beach to Maine and what we call “fake spring”. Haha, maybe sunny long enough to clean the yard? #stampinup #sendingsalutations #cardmaker #cardmakingideas
