Christmas Creations!

Hello stampers!

I have 2 new entries to share today!

First we have a lovely Christmas gift box from talented youngster Emily Shultz:

Emily used this pizza box tutorial as the basis for her design, but changed the dimensions so that her box would fit a CD inside it for her dad. :)

Here's the inside:

From Emily:

"Once I had made the actual box template, I cut a square hole in the top. I used the baubles from the Kaisercraft “Doodled Christmas” clear stamp set on the lid, then embossed them with AED hot set powder and glittered them with AED white fizz glitter. I glued a square of “Striped Circles” chatterbox cardstock on the back of the lid to show through. I stuck the squares and the letters on to say Merry Christmas Dad. On the inside of the lid I used the back of “tie plaid” chatterbox paper and embossed the tree from Kaisercraft “Doodled Christmas” clear stamps. I also added kindy glitz to the star and punched out circles with DM on them as baubles to the tree".

Fantastic work Emily!

Next we have a gorgeous Christmas table decoration from Laurence Schmitz of Belgium:

Laurence used this template from Stampington as the basis for her design. Here's a close up:

From Laurence:

"I used recycled cardstock and covered it partially with gesso, stamped the text with brilliance ink and used a punchinella with green acrylic colour. The leaves are from a napkin and I used UTEE ,wire, beads and other embellishments. Stamps by Collections, and See D's".

Awesome work Laurence! What a cool idea - I'm totally going to have to give this a go!

That's it from me for the moment! I'm off to work on another tutorial for you all. :)
