I adore the Tiny Gift Box and Add Ons dies from Lawn Fawn! The Tiny Gift Box Deer Add On dies make creating reindeer boxes for the holiday season so cute and easy! Not only are these the perfect size for adding a little sweet treat but they could also be used for decoration! I thought it would be fun to create multiples and make a box for each of Santa's reindeer. Today I have nine Tiny Gift Boxes: Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donder, Blitzen, and Rudolph! Let's get started!

Die cutting the elements was the most time consuming part of this project. I broke it down into assembly line style by first die cutting all the components for each box and putting them in stacks and then assembling all the boxes and finally adding embellishment.
To give the reindeer some variety I die cut the component for each from three different shades of brown Lawn Fawn cardstock: Paper Bag, Ground Coffee, and Chocolate Bar. I used the Tiny Gift Box Die, Tiny Gift Box Deer Add On Dies, and the hearts from the Scalloped Box Card Pop Up dies (for the hearts on the bums). Heart dies (if you choose to use them) could be from any set with the right size heart. Check your stash of dies to see what you have that will work!
Each box was assembled and then embellished with the add ons. I glued everything in place with the Lawn Fawn Glue Tube.
Rudolph got a sweet little red nose! Nuvo Crystal Drops in White Blizzard were applied to the holly berries, cheeks and bow ties. Glossy Accents was added to the eyes and noses of each box.
A little heart on the back of each box is the perfect finishing touch.

I'm back with my fifth year of last minute handmade ideas! Five years, you guys. Wow. Thank you so much for your support of this series. I have been overwhelmed and almost considered not doing the series this year but I kept getting emails and comments asking for it so I sat down to make a list of projects I could do and I got really excited. So this series is for you crafting friends. I appreciate each and every one of you and y'all make this possible. Much love to everyone.
The goal of this series is adding handmade touches to gifts for our friends and family. Even with the craziness of the season I like to be able to personalize the gifts under our tree. Over the next couple of weeks I'll be sharing mostly quick (an hour or less) Handmade Holiday ideas for cards, tags and gift wrapping sure to add that handmade touch we all love. Most ideas will include multiples (today I created lots and lots of felt tags and ornaments)!

FELT STITCHED ORNAMENT GIFT TAGS WITH STAMPED GIFT BOXES
Last year I created a set of paper tags with the Lawn Fawn Stitched Ornaments Gift Tags adorned with Nuvo Crystal Drops. You can see those HERE. Those ornaments were the inspiration behind this years tag ornaments even though they couldn't be any different. What I love about crafting is how the same supplies can be used completely differently for new and unique looks. I'm sharing some flat "hot glued" gift tag ornaments as well as how to created polyester fiberfill stuffed plush ornaments with "non-stitching dies". While I generally try to keep the projects more on the quick and easy side, these are another set of tags that take a bit longer to make. I couldn't stop at just one or two.... and I couldn't not make gift boxes for the two sets of ornament tags! Wouldn't these make awesome gifts in and of themselves?!!!!
The video is long but it's basically 3 projects in one. Felt Gift Tags, Felt Plush Ornaments, and Stamped Embellished Gift Boxes. I hope you have enjoyed this series as much as I've enjoyed bringing it to you!
Merry Christmas!

To watch the creation of these felt ornaments, tags, and gift boxes from start to finish, click HERE or watch below:
We are going to start with these felt gift tag ornaments. I used the Winter Tiny Tags for the majority of the tags but also used the medium size Stitched Ornament Die for variety. The great thing about all these dies is that they already have a hole in the top making them perfect for gift tags! The Lawn Fawn Stitched Snowflakes and Mini Snowflakes perfectly adorn these felt tags.
Sequins and seed beads were used to embellish both sides of all pieces (except for the mittens where I only did the top of each) and then the pieces were hot glued back-to-back. this gives each a more finished look.
To sew sequins/seed beads on I used two strands of embroidery floss, came up from the back of the piece in the center and added a snowflake sequin, a regular sequin and finished with a seed bead. I wrapped the needle/floss around the seed bead and went back through the center of the sequins and the back of the piece, repeating the process for all the sequins. The seed beads "anchor" each sequin in place! This is a super quick and easy way to embellish your felt pieces. The plethora of sequins and seed beads I have from making shaker cards comes in so handy!
I like to add a simple paper tag with my felt ornament tags. Something that looks nice tied onto a package but that I didn't spend tons of time on because it's easily discarded by the recipient and they can keep the felt ornament to use as decoration.
Want to give a set of ornament tags or handmade ornaments as a gift? The Lawn Fawn Gift Box provide the perfect presentation! I added some simple stamping to the box lid, decorative corners, a removable felt bow, and even a tiny, tiny felt ornament to really customize the Gift Box.
The bow pieces were die cut from felt and assembled with hot glue. The bow was slid onto the box.
A tiny Stitched Ornament was created from felt and added to each box to tie it all together.
The Stitched Ornaments large die makes the perfect plush ornaments. I adorned each side with a Mini Wreath sewn on with sequins/seed beads and filled each ornament with polyester filberfill for a plush ornament. These can be given as ornaments in the Gift Box or used as gift tags by adding a simple tag like I show below.
The Stitched Ornament pieces and Mini Wreaths were die cut from felt. Each side of the ornament was adorned with a wreath sewn on with sequins and seed beads. A bow was hot glued in place.
The two sides of each ornament were placed back-to-back and whipstitched together, leaving a small opening to fill with polyester filberfill. The top of each ornament was secured with hot glue and the contrasting ornament topper.

BEAR HUGS FELT ORNAMENT GIFT TAGS
Today's gift tags are inspired by these Plush Felt Ornaments I made two years ago. Want more ideas on felt ornament tags you can make? Check them out HERE. This year's felt plush ornaments feature perfectly matching gift tags with the coordinating Bear Ware Stamp Set. Simply remove the paper tag and the recipient is left with an adorable plush ornament decoration! These tags aren't as fast as some of my other projects but they are totally worth it. I pulled out all the stops with these: they are stuffed with polyester fiberfill, I sewed on sequins/beads, additional felt pieces were added and I even made interactive paper tags that can be removed after the gift has been given so that the bear can be an ornament. In the video I will give some tips for making these a bit quicker and easier if you're pressed for time. ;)

I kind of have a bear theme going with this year's Handmade Holiday Series. We've got the polar bears from THESE gift tags, the polar bear sticking out of the pocket in THESE gift bags, and now some felt ornament tags! I hope you guys enjoy these as much as I do. And, if you're short on time, try making the paper part of the gift tag only. It's super cute and all five were made in less than an hour!
Each felt bear was created using the following:
Cut two of the Bear Hugs bear shape from white or gray felt.
Cut arms from the Bear Hugs dies from matching white or gray felt.
The Bear Hugs gift package was backstitched to the bear front with red embroidery floss and the "ribbon and bow" with silver embroidery floss.
Eyes were created with french knots and a mouth was backstitched with black embroidery floss.
Sequins and seed beads were stitched by the holly leaves.
The Winter Window tree was hot glued to the design and then a star sequin and shimmer seed bead were stitched to secure the top.
The Home and Hearth red felt heart was hot glued to the backside of each bear and then the bear was stitched together, securing red/white backer's twine at the top, stuffing each full of polyester fiberfill to make a dimensional ornament.
The arms were stitched at the sides and hot glued over the present and tree to secure them to the front.
Here's a close up look of the detail of the sequins and seed beads. I love the bit of sparkle they add to this project!
For the matching gift tags, the Mama Elephant Framed Tags Union Square were used to die cut a solid red cardstock tag for the bag. The tag and stitched interactive opening were used to die cut Bristol Smooth Cardstock for the tag fronts.
The hat and candy cane from the Bear Ware 2 Stamp Set were stamped on the tag fronts, masked and then the bear from the All Inside Stamp Set was stamped. The masks were removed and the images were colored in with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers.
A black pen was used to add detail to the eyes and nose. A white pen adds highlight to the nose.
Nuvo Crystal Drops in White Blizzard were added to the brim of the hat and the pompom.
Greetings from the the Bear Ware 2 Stamp Set were stamped on the red tag with clear embossing ink and heat set with white embossing powder.
The tag front was secured to the red solid tag with 1/8" scor tape.
The tag was threaded on to the baker's twine with the felt plush ornament to finish the design.

PLAID 3D TOTE BAGS WITH POLAR BEAR POCKETS
Each year I share an idea for a mini gift bag. This year I'm all about plaid everything. And cute die cut critters. I decided to pair the two in the red/black/white color combination that I'm using this year. Click the links below to view the previous years gift bags:
Black ribbon was tied around the handles of each bag and the tag was threaded onto the ribbon and tied into a bow.
Eyelashes were added to the eyes, Glossy Accents to the nose, and white highlights to the eyes and nose (once dry).

STENCILED GIFT BAGS WITH MONOGRAM TAGS
Today I'm sharing some stenciled and embellished gift bags with monogrammed tags created by mixing and matching dies from several sets for these simple, yet elegant gift bags. These bags would be perfect for giving a gift card or other small, flat gift. Monograms are one of my favorite ways to customize a tag!
Today's post is in conjunction with Honey Bee Stamps 12 Days of Christmas Event where you will get to see daily inspiration from twelve designers, receive daily discounts on the products that they used & HBS will do a drawing from the comments on their blog for a winner of one stamp set that the designer used.

V I D E O T U T O R I A L
To watch the creation of these stenciled gift bags with monogram tags from start to finish, click HERE or watch below:
The Gift Bag Card die was used to die cut red cardstock for each bag. I cut two panels for each bag. The bags were stenciled with one of the Plaid Background Stencils and Black Soot Distress Oxide Ink. Once each side of the bag was inked, adhesive was applied to the tabs on one side of the bag and the gift bag was adhered together as shown.
Labels for the front of each bag were die cut from both black cardstock and white glitter cardstock using the Truly Great Friends Die. On the inside black cardstock rectangle sentiments from the Fa La La Stamp Set were stamped with clear embossing ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder. The "ho ho ho" sentiment from the Fa La La Dies was die cut from white glitter cardstock adhered to Fun Foam with Stick It Adhesive and adhered above the stamped and embossed sentiment.
The label was adhered to the front of the bag and both the black cardstock scallop frame and white glitter cardstock frame were adhered around the rectangle to finish the label.
The circle tag from the Gift Bag Card Dies was die cut from smooth white cardstock. Monograms were die cut from red glitter cardstock using the Bee Bold Alphabet Dies and adhered to each tag as shown. Holly leaves from the Threshold Card Dies were die cut from green cardstock and adhered to each tag. Red sequins finish the holly and berries next to each monogram.
Ribbon handles were added to each bag and the tags were tied to the handles with crochet thread. Each bag was finished with a "tissue paper" insert created by die cutting the Gift Bag Card die using woodgrain vellum.

DieCember is a month-long celebration at Simon Says Stamp where we celebrate all things die cutting! Creating all die cut cards has never been easier with all the incredible dies available to us these days and the DieCember Release from Simon is chock full of amazing designs for the holidays and every day! I am using lots and lots of new dies (and even some from previous releases) for these holiday thank you cards.
V I D E O T U T O R I A L
Watch the creation of these DieCember Punny Picture Book Cards from start to finish below or click HERE to watch in HD:
Both of my cards today feature an inlay-style background with the new Holiday Knit Background Die. The main panel was die cut from Simon Says Stamp Fog Cardstock and then the inlay pieces were die cut from Gina K Red Velvet Cardstock and Lawn Fawn Noble Fir Cardstock. The inlay was made easy by backing the panel with Stick It Adhesive first. This not only makes the inlay super easy but provides adhesive for adhering the entire panel to my card base. Once the inlay was complete I added the background panel to a top or side fold card base. A beautiful background is really what makes these adorable Picture Book animals shine!
If inlay isn't your thing, try trimming a contrasting color of cardstock down to 4" x 5 1/4" and placing it behind the Holiday Knit Background Die for a similar look!
Glossy Accents was added to the panda's nose for a bit of shine and dimentsion. Once dry, a highlight was added on top with a white opaque pen.
The panda is holding Candy Canes die cut using Gina K Red Velvet Cardstock, White Glitter Cardstock, and red Holiday Sparkle Cardstock. I love how many of the Picture Book bodies are perfect for holding something in their arms. This design can easily be changed to another season, holiday, or occasion by removing the hat and switching up what the panda is holding!
The Thank You Script was die cut from smooth white cardstock adhered to Fun Foam with Stick It Adhesive and adhered to the right of the cat as shown. A sentiment from the Punny Animals Stamp Set was stamped on Lawn Fawn Noble Fir Cardstock with clear embossing ink and heat set with white embossing powder before being die cut with a new Nested Banners Die and adhered to the design with foam adhesive.

I'm so super excited to share today's project with you. I am addicted to felt this season. I know this is the first felt project you're seeing here on the blog this holiday season but I've got more coming soon so be sure to subscribe to my blog HERE or check back regularly!
These felt tags are fantastic in that they make a gorgeous presentation on a package but can be used by the recipient after the gift has been opened as a pretty ornament or decoration!
Even though these Mama Elephant dies aren't necessarily made for stitching projects, I wanted to show how you can take regular dies and make them extraordinary with some pretty felt, sequins, seed beads, and a little string. Let's get started!
V I D E O T U T O R I A L
Watch the creation of these felt snowflake ornament tags from start to finish below or click HERE to watch in HD:
Tags and snowflakes were die cut from felt (I used Taylored Expressions felt I have in my stash but you can use any high quality felt) using the Scallop Tags Trio Dies and Flurries Dies. Each tag is two tags, adhered back to back after stitching a snowflake to one side. If you want to make the ornaments two-sided, adorn each side with a snowflake before attaching them back to back.
To give each tag a bit more stability and also to hide the stitching on the back, I hot glued tags back-to-back.
To finish each tag, I stamped "to/from" from the Mini Messages Stamp Set on a die cut Mini Tag using clear embossing ink and heat embossing with white embossing powder. The tag were threaded together with some pretty twine.
Once you've given the gift, the recipient can cut off the "to/from" tag and they're left with a beautifully embellished ornament!

Hello! I'm super excited to share this trio of Stitching Trees cards with you today. This Stitching Trees die is perfect for providing a template for creating amazing stitched trees! I am sharing a couple of more traditional trees (red and green) and one more modern (rainbow) all adorned with layered sequins and seed beads and finished with gold embossed sentiments. Let's get started!
V I D E O T U T O R I A L
Watch the creation of these stitching trees cards from start to finish below or click HERE to watch in HD:
Each tree was stitched with crochet thread from my stash. All my crochet thread was purchased from Hobby Lobby. The red background features white thread, the green background features white/gold thread, and the rainbow features nine different colors of crochet thread!
Each Stitching Tree was embellished with a gold glitter cardstock die cut star from the Large Holiday Shapes Dies. This not only finishes off the top of the tree beautifully but it hides the top of the tree which didn't look great with the particular stitching! ;)
Sequins and seed beads were sewn on using a small beading needle. If you don't want to sew I suggest gluing sequins, beads, or other embellishments to the tree or leave it plain for an even more clean and simple look!
Each stitched panel was popped up with foam adhesive on the card front to finish the design.

FOLDED CRITTER SWEATER SHAPED GIFT TAGS
Today's gift tags are inspired by these Woodland Critter Huggers Gift Card Holders I made a few weeks ago. They are probably my very favorite project this season. As much as I love them, though, they are time consuming with all the die cutting and assembling. If you have the time, go make some. They are FUN! (Or plan to make some for next year!) If time is limited like mine is, and you're looking for something similar but much, much quicker, please keep reading!
V I D E O T U T O R I A L
To watch the creation of these folded critter sweater shaped gift tags from start to finish, click HERE or watch below:
I started with the polar bear from the Critter Sweaters Stamp Set and dies and while I had the stamps out, my MISTIs loaded with stamps, I decided to make some sweet little kitties as well!
A little disclaimer: my gift packaging this year is all gray/red/white/black so I'm making tags, bags, etc. that matches my packaging and gift wrap. Any of the ideas I'm sharing with you in this series can be created with your favorite color combination. :)
For the tag bases I trimmed a strip of smooth white cardstock to 2 3/4" by 8 1/2", scored the strip in half and die cut along the scored line with a Critter Sweaters die. This creates the folded tag shape.
I also die cut the polar bear or cat Critter Sweaters die from more smooth white cardstock. This will be the front of each tag.
On the inside of each tag I stamped a larger greeting from the Critter Sweater Stamp Set with Lawn Fawn Lobster Red Ink. Underneath the greeting I stamped a phrase from the Tiny Words Christmas stamp set with black ink underneath. This gives the inside of each tag a beautiful finished look. It also keeps the front of each tag free from text making these usable after the gift giving. Use as an ornament or mantle decor, etc.!
For the tag fronts, I loaded up a MISTI with Critter Sweater borders and stamped each critter with Lawn Fawn Lobster Red Ink. Using a stamp positioner makes creating multiples fast, the easiest thing ever! I'm a big fan of making multiples whenever possible.
I stamped the faces on the top of each tag with black ink and cheeks with Cotton Candy Ink. Adhered the tag front to the folded tag base, added some pretty red/white baker's twine and then added finishing details like Nuvo Crystal Drops in Ebony Black and White Blizzard to finish each.
Finishing details are completely optional. If you have time to add pen detail to the eyes and noses and Nuvo Crystal Drops to the sweater design, go for it. If not, your tags are still amazing!
My hope is that these tags have inspired you to whip up some quick handmade tags for your gift packaging! Thank you for joining me for day one of Handmade Holiday 2018!

Hello friends! Nichol here today with a Snow BuddiesMason Jar Shaped Card! I adore the shaped cards made by Honey Bee and I thought it would be fun to create a "snow globe" mason jar filled with an adorable snowman from the Snow Buddies Stamp Set. An acetate overlay provides the "snow globe" effect without bulky shaker layers. Let's get started!
V I D E O T U T O R I A L
Watch the creation of this snow globe mason jar shaped card from start to finish below or click HERE to watch in HD:
The base of the card was die cut from smooth white cardstock using the Mason Jar Card die. The background was inked with Mermaid Lagoon and Chipped Sapphire Distress Ink. The ink will provide a nice contrast to the white stamping on the acetate layer later on. A partial mason jar was die cut from a scrap of smooth white cardstock and then a border was die cut with a Hill Borders Die and adhered along the bottom edge of the jar.
A 5x7 acetate panel was die cut with the Mason Jar Card Die. It's only a partial die cut but you don't need an entire panel, just enough for the front of the card. The acetate was stamped with the falling snow image and the "let it snow" sentiment from the Jingle All The Way Stamp Set using Cotton White Staz on Ink. The acetate was adhered along the top only. Lids of the jar were die cut from Black Velvet Mirror Cardstock, one for the front and one from the back.
Snow Buddies images were stamped on smooth white cardstock with black ink, colored in with Copic Markers, and die cut with the coordinating Snow Buddies Dies.
The santa hat was adorned with Chunky Glitter and the snowman "dusted" with Prisma Glitter. Detail was added to the scarf with a white opaque pen. Glossy Accents was added to the carrot nose.
The images were adhered under the acetate layer and red/white baker's twine was wrapped around the top of the jar to finish the design.
