Embracing the GOLD on this hand crafted art is such a fun contrast to the vintage pages of this 1950's book!

From Paper Manipulation - in this Folded Pages Book Art to the Gold Leafing and mixing of the media... I can't get over how fun this was!

Layers and layers of fun... 

Recipe:

~  Measuring the pages of your book, cutting this coordinating Designer Series Paper to fit.. I incorporated tearing and sponging even.

~  Die-Cutting the Gold Foil for a fun accent.

~  Paper Folding is so much fun and doesn't require adhesive to do.

~  Stamping in the Night of Navy ink on this stunning O' Holy Night Designer Series Paper such a perfect greeting.

~  Accent using the Gold Trim and Festive Pearls.

Spice It Up...

~  Using the Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and the Gilded Leafing Elements along with our Paper Pumpkin box and Stamping Sponge for an elegant gold leafing!

Elevating this project can be as many or as few layers that you may be interested in... I am addicted to this and plan to create a fun variety of them as gifts.

Vintage Books to pick... I featured the Santa Book in my next post but the pages were older, thin or softer? and rougher in edge.  I would recommend a firmer page with a clean edge.  I highlight this in the video tutorial above.

You can create this to just the gift bag or elevate it with a die-cut gift tag and some holographic die-cut and embossed stars!!

Capture the rainbow with this stunning paper!

Recipe:

~  Taking TWO 6"x6" pieces of this Snowflake Magic paper and the Simply Scored board, score two sides at 1", the bottom at 1-1/2" and the top at 1/2" (I stacked the two sheets as I was scoring).

~ Using the Bone Folder, score the flaps,

~  Snip in the 1-1/2" bottom (see the video tutorial) to make a flap.

~  Using Stampin' Seal +, seal up this bag.

~  Assemble the bag and punch the holes to create the handle.

~  Tie the ribbon with a sassy double knot (add the tag if you want NOW, before the second tie/side).

Spice It Up:

Elevate this with the Stars at Night Bundle and Holographic Trio papers.

~  Emboss and Die-Cut the Holographic foil sheet.

~  Die Cut and Stamp the gift tag.

~  Accent with the Lost Lagoon ink and die-cut stars.

I adore how STUNNING these Shining Christmas Paper Collections are!!  So easy to create with but WOW do they deliver joy!!

My Recipe:

~  Using the Deckled Circles Dies with the 9th (out of 14! stunning dies!) smallest (about 4") and die-cut the FOUR patterned papers that grab you (this works with ANY of Stampin' UP!'s stunning paper collections - especially the double sided collections).

~  Score them at 1-7/8" 

~  Using an INSIDE of either Very Vanilla or Basic White card stock to 4" square.

~  Adhere the circles around the sides of the square that you STAMPED with the coordinating ink and the Stars at Night Bundle.

WHAT an EASY but WOW fun fold!!!

SPICE it up:

~  I love a more finished look... here a 8-1/2"x1" strip of coordinating card stock, embossed with the coordinating Stars at Night Hybrid Embossing Folder.

~  FOLD each circle in on one another.

~  Create a BELLY Band (see the video on what we did) and allow it to contain your gift cards and loving thoughts.

I love the swoosh of the Very Vanilla, Night of Navy and Gold of the Shining Brightly Paper here... 

Stamping the INSIDE with the coordinating ink colors (another reason I love Stampin' Up! - all of the card stocks, inks and Designer Series Papers are perfectly coordinated!!).

You can alternate how the papers lay, I just happen to love the swoop this creates by partnering them near one another.
