Christmas Gift Bags

    Welcome to another Sisters in Stamping Fabulous Friday posting. This week we are here to share some great Christmas gift bags with you. We know that Christmas is only a few days away and you may be in need of a packaging idea for that odd-sized package or for that gift that you want to have stand out a little bit more.

    Here is Debbie's gift bag idea... see if you can guess how she made it.  To find out, be sure and hop over to her blog here for all the details.
 

      Here we have Rachel's unique Christmas tree gift bag. She used scraps of designer series paper to make the tree.  For more information, visit Rachel's blog.

 

This is Karla's gift bag for this week's post. She used Designer Series Paper too-- but it looks totally different from mine and Debbie's. Go to her blog to get a "how to."

 

 

     Thank you so much for visiting us today and every other Friday. We hope we have inspired you at least a few times over this past year. 

We want to wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas!

Framelits & Sizzlets!

   Are you in love with Stampin' Up!'s Framelits & Sizzlets dies?  Well if you're not, or you don't even know what they are, check out the Stampin' Up! catalog page 191 and the Holiday Collection catalog pages 3, 16, 29, and 30!  A couple great things about the Framelits is they have stamp sets that they coordinate with and many of them come bundled with that stamp set saving you money!

   To give you an idea of how you might use these items we've put together some fun samples for you.  First off we have Karla's creation.

   Karla used the Holiday Collection & Apothecary Accents Framelits to create this cute Christmas card!  Check out Karla's blog for more information on her card.

    Next we have Rachel's card.  She used the Apothercary Accents Framelits as well.  Head over to Rachel's blog for all the details of her card.

    Debbie created this fun Christmas candy favor using the Holiday Ornaments Framelits and the Be of Good Cheer DSP.  Hop on over to Debbie's blog to see a step-by-step tutorial to make it yourself!

   I also used the Holiday Collection and also used the Labels Collection Framelits for my Christmas card!  We all had Christmas on our minds already!  Check out my blog (Jacque) for additional information on the supplies that I used to make my card!

  As always we thank you for stopping by to visit and hope that you've been inspired to try something new!  Have a great weekend and please come back next Friday when we'll be sharing Thanksgiving projects!
