  • Stampin' Up! Calming Camilia on Ombre Gift Bags
  • Introducing the New Beginnings Paper Pumpkin Kit
  • 20% discount on Mini Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine
Here's a elegant, easy gift wrapping idea to try for any occasion.  Stampin' Up! Ombre Gift Bags, Item #155479, images from the Calming Camilia Stamp Set, and coordinating 3/8" wide Open Weave Ribbon. These Ombre Gift Bags are the perfect size for a few cards, wrapped chocolate treats, or perfect for packaging a gift of our ribbons or accessories as an special treat for a customer or friend.  With ink colors and ribbons that match each of the Ombre Gift Bag colors, creating these gift bag is quick way to dress up a treat or small gift.  The Ombre Gift Bags are   4-2/3" X 7" and come 20 to a package, 4 each of 5 colors.  These gift bags are food safe.  After stamping the largest image from the Calming Camilia Stamp Set I folded the top edge over to close the bags and then punched holes for my ribbons to hold the top secure.  You'll love dressing up your small gifts with these bags.  Although Sale-A-Bration is over, and Calming Camilia Stamp Set is no longer available, you'll find many other images among your stamp set that will create an equally elegant look.  Give Flowering Flowers or Dahlia Days Stamp Sets a try.

To create these gift bags, I stamped each of the 5 colored bags in their coordinating ink colors -  Fresh Freesia, Pale Papaya, Polished Pink, Soft Succulent, and Evening Evergreen.

Once each bag was stamped, I turned down the top edge of each bag and punched holes for my ribbons.  Then I used the matching ribbons for each bag to create bows to close off the tops of each bag.  These bags will work perfectly for Spring gifts for Easter, Mother's Day or fun baked treats for friends.   Select mages that match your Spring Celebrations from the wide assortment of Stamp Sets offered by Stampin' Up!.  Enjoy creating fast, elegant gift bags using coordinating inks and ribbons.

Happy Mother Day Card using images from Friendly Hello Designer Series Paper

                                     

  • Stampin' Up! Friendly Hello
  • Introducing the New Beginnings Paper Pumpkin Kit
  • 20% discount on Mini Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine
A floral Mother's Day Card using images from the Friendly Hello Designer Series Paper, one of my free Sale-A-Bration selections is my card today.  Although Sale-A-Bration is over, I'm excited about using the wonderful free selections I earned, and I'm guessing you have some of these items as well and you're looking for ideas.  While I created a Mother's Day card, you could easily change the sentiment and make this a Birthday card, Easter card, or a card to wish a friend "Hello".  Although this Designer Series Paper includes a coordinating stamp set, I decided to use the images in one of the sheets  of paper from the Stampin' Up! Friendly Hellos 12" X 12" Designer Series Paper rather than the stamped images.  I fussy cut flower and bird images and layered them on a Basic White Circle.  I added a 3/8" wide Denim Ribbon and layered my images onto a piece of wood-grained Heart & Home Designer Series Paper.



Floral Mother's Day Card using Stampin' Up! Friendly Hello Designer Series Paper

To create today's card, I used a base card of Basic Gray Cardstock.  Then I added a layer of of Night of Navy, and then a woodgrain print from the Heart and Home 12" X 12 Designer Series Paper from the January-June 2022 Mini Catalog.

Then I found a print in the Friendly Hellow Designer Series Paper Pack that included the bird, flowers and leaves images I used in my design.  I fussy cut each of the images and then added a bit of matching Blends ink to each of the images to add more depth to the images.  I used Petal Pink, Fresh Fresia and Pool Party Blends.  I die cut a circle from Basic White using the Circle Layering Dies, and I glued the images around the edges of the circle. I stamped the Happy Mother's Day sentiment from the Dafodil Daydream Stamp Set in Shaded Spruce ink.

I finished the card by adding Denim Ribbon under the circle, and then adding Dimensionals to the back side of the images and circle before adding it to my card base.  I may go back and add some of the In Color Rhinestones to give the card a bit more bling.
