Dear Crafters,
Today some of the Art with Heart Stampin’ Up! team girls have created some amazing Christmas projects to inspire you with the theme, It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas! We have tags, gift bags, teacher gift ideas, decorations and many more fun projects to create this holiday season.
You have come to my blog from the lovely, Kathryn Ruddick. Blogs are full circles, so you can start hopping here and then at the end of each post is a link to the next. There is also a list of participants at the end in case of any broken links.
Now let’s get started!
It’s heading to that time of year when my kids are finishing school for the Christmas break and they like to give their teacher a little thank you gift. So this year, I have made each of them these little post it note holders, but also incorporated the mini calendar!
I have used the Candy Cane Lane DSP and Cookie Cutter Christmas Bundle.
My next project is a little gift tag holder which can hold up to 10 gift tags.

I love using the designer series paper on my tags, hence why I use white tags so you can write your messages on the back!!!
This Santa was stamped and coloured with Stampin’ Write Markers. His cute santa hat was made using the Jolly Hat Builder Punch. The pinecone is die cut with the copper foil sheet.
Thanks for visiting today.
Don’t forget to email me at craftwithkate@live.com.au to request your copy of any Catalogue or to ask about joining the Art With Heart team.

Hi Carole, I would have done a search YouTube and followed one form there. Sorry I don’t have a link, although I need to make some more of these. Next time I will take note of my steps in creating one!

Hi Liz, to be honest, I don’t remember exactly whose instructions I used, as mine looks different to the ones I’ve looked up again on Pinterest. Lyssa always has great tutorials though and easy to follow instructions, however mine was from a YouTube video

Great projects, Kate. I especially like the tag holder, and love the idea of decorating the fronts of white tags, to leave the backs for writing on!
