HOLIDAY THOUGHTS...

I still have Harvest Decorations on my front porch as well as here and there inside, but thoughts of Christmas are dancing in my head...

Wreaths will be plentiful...

With only 45 days until Christmas,

I'd better be doing more than just thinking about it!

 

COUNTRY CLUB SIMPLY SCRAPPIN' CARD KIT...

I love making card kits from the SIMPLY SCRAPPIN' SETS.  You can make TWO 12-card kits from ONE Simply Scrappin' Kit!  They are fast, fun and fabulous, especially for busy-on-the-go crafters!

 

The SUPPLY LIST only has 3 items on it:  1) Country Club Simply Scrappin' Kit... 2) Pear Pizzazz 1/2" Stitched-Poly Ribbon... 3) Whisper White Open-End Envelopes. 

And the BOX is just faaabbbbuuulous!

Here's how to make the Box..

BOX:  Score the 11" x 9" Textured Card Stock along the 11" sides at 2".  Score the 9" sides at 3-1/2" score lines from the edge of the paper to where it meets the perpendicular score line as shown in photograph above.  Fold box along all score lines.  I used Sticky Strip Adhesive on box seams and on back strip of lid.

 

LID:  Score the 5" x 7" piece of Designer Series Paper along the 5" side at 1" and at 3".  Attach to the back of the box along the 1" scored side.  Embellish box lid with Self-Adhesive Die-Cuts.  Punch hole in center to thread ribbons to inside.  Tie ribbon in know to secure on the inside.

And all the Cards were made exclusively with contents from the Country Club Simply Scrappin' Kit... Just peel and stick!

TRIMS:

Trim and embellish the box and cards as pictured, or use your own creativity with the 3" x 3" DSP squares, the Adhesive Die-Cuts and the Ribbon.

TIPS:

For variety, any Simply Scrappin' Kit may be used.  Split the package in two halves, using only one half for the kit.  The second half may be used for a second kit if desired... Score and fold all twelve 6" x 6" cards in half before starting to assemble.  Always fold with the paper grain rather than against the grain, resulting in a better fold.... To make a celebration card kit for gift-giving, choose a Simply Scrappin' Kit with the theme and/or colors that fit your special occasion.
