Hello! I had the most wonderful day on Sunday, at my first craft fair of the season. I met up with lots of lovely friends and chatted to so many people about all things crafty. And sampled lots of the delicious home baking too! I will be sharing more of my craft fair makes soon but for now I want to share my best seller. My Reindeer Days hot chocolate wrap…
I made this original version with my beloved old envelope punch board. I used a piece of Reindeer Days DSP measuring 7-1/8″ x 7-1/8″ and made the first punch and score at 2-3/4″ (the measurements for a 3″ x 5-1/2″ envelope). As Stampin’ Up! no longer sell punch boards I decided to work out how you can make them without one. Check out my video to find out.
In the meantime, here’s a close up of the decoration I added…
I found a pack of adorable Christmas tea spoons on Amazon and added them to my package with gorgeous ribbon. My sentiment circle was created with stamps from the Frozen Edges set, using Balmy Blue and Real Red inks.
Today’s video tutorial shows you how to make this sweet little package without the need to an envelope punch board…
