Holiday Helper Series Project 7: Visions of Santa Cards
The holidays are full of traditions, including stories and songs that we learned from childhood that just seem to stay with us. Maybe you remember being curled up and cozy while listening to T'was the Night Before Christmas and wondering if you'd hear Santa at your house on Christmas eve. And now you're the one reading to a captive audience of little ones on the nice list. Sometimes it's fun to put a little twist on tradition, so instead of dancing sugar plums, send some dancing Santas this year!
These fun little Santa's make a fun card using the Chalkboard technique. Simply stamp and emboss them in White. Stamp the sentiment in the center and emboss in White. Colour the word "Santas" using the Cherry Cobbler Dark Stampin' Blendabilities Marker.
SUPPLIES USED:
Visions of Santa Stamp Set
Santa & Co Designer Series Paper

I hope you're all enjoying your Turkey Day. Once you're finished with your Family Fun and Turkey Dinners today it's time to start thinking about sending out your Holiday Cards!! So to help you along with some inspiration I'll be sharing the cards from this year's Christmas Card SAS class!!
Today's card is this pretty Frosted Christmas Cheer Card – I call it frosted because the non-traditional color scheme reminds me of christmas colors with a layer of frost laying over them – everything turns pastel when it's covered with frost 🙂
This card could not be any simpler but it looks so shiny and elegant! A quick stamp in Basic Gray and then accent it with Rhinestones from the In Color Sequin pack – the sample card uses the Strawberry Slush but the card looks great with all the colors in the package!
Here's a closer look at the sparkle they add to the card

Holiday Helper Series Project 6: Nordic Village Gift Bag
As a child, did you shake your presents to try to guess what was inside? Sometimes the packaging can be just as intriguing as the gift inside. Wrap your gifts up with your own style and flair with this custom Nordic Village gift bag and coordinating tag.
For centuries, the people of Mexico have gathered on Christmas Eve to light large bonfires, to pray, to sing, and to welcome the Christ Child. Luminaries have become one of the most popular ways for people to extend this custom to the present day. Welcome guests to your next gathering with hand-decorated luminaries, using the Nordic Village Designer Templates (#137089).

I really love the color combo in the All is Calm product lines – and I LOVED playing with it at this year's Christmas Class!! Today's project is the Fry Boxes I created for the prizes at the class, but it would be a WONDERFUL little box to create for small holiday gift giving…
Creating these cute boxes is simple!!
Die cut Fry Boxes from card stock that cordinates with All is Calm DSP
Die cut a piece of All is Calm DSP with the Fry Box Die and cut out just the back
Adhere the DSP to the back of the Fry Box while it's flat.
Assemble the Fry Box, gluing the sides with strong adhesive.
Stamp and punch out a tag. Add it to the front of the fry box.
Tuck your gift in a cello bag. Tie it shut with ribbon and gold sequence trim.
Here's a little close look at all the different colors I did…
I also applied this color combo to the Tag I put on the Grand Prize at the class
I used the Under The Tree Tag a Bag Accessory Kit and the Trendy Trims Stamp Set to create this tag. Using the Lost Lagoon and Soft Sky ink with the brown tags from the kit was a fun way to get a different look from the tag kits original Red and Green color scheme…
