Last Minute Gifts Blog Party Day #2

Welcome back for Day #2 of our Blog Party where Kerri Bradford and I are showcasing some awesome “LAST MINUTE GIFT” ideas created by our design team members! The projects you see both here and on Kerri’s site are made with cutting files designed by Kerri and myself. If you missed the post yesterday, be sure to go see Corri’s awesome Bottle Tags and the beautiful gift card holders & candle holder designed by Shari Carroll over on Kerri’s blog.

Today, Joy has used my cupcake box and embellished it with some of Kerri’s adorable art turning them into a fabulous gift for a cocoa or coffee lover! Who wouldn’t be excited to receive this?? IT’S SO CUTE!!

Oh, and you might just want to go visit Joy for another chance to win a gift card… hint… hint.

Joy used Kerri’s darling Santa suit to embellish the side of the box.

Joy modified the box insert to hold a gift card and a K-Cup of Coffee or Cocoa. How creative is that?

This is Kerri’s “Twas the Night Before Christmas” word art. I love how Joy highlighted “Christ” with the green dot paper.

To create this project you need the following files:

Today, Corri is sharing a super cute set of Bottle Label Tags that she’s created. These would dress up a bottle of “whatever” to make the perfect hostess gift or neighbor gift this holiday season. I love this idea because it’s super easy and really adds a homemade flair to a simple bottle. Go visit Corri’s blog to see her post giving more details about her project. There just might be some surprises over there, too… hint, hint : )

You’ll need these files to create these Bottle Label Tags…

“Season’s Greetings” is here!

The second collection that I designed that  just released TODAY at CHA with Echo Park Paper is called Season’s Greetings. I was going for a traditional Christmas collection with a bit of vintage and distressing. You’ll find lots of very usable, but unique pieces in the Season’s Greetings collection. I hope you like it : )
