FESTIVE CHEER WITH CHRISTMAS ORNAMENTS

Christmas ornaments are right up there with Santa and the Tree, don’t you agree? I have a substantial collection that varies from beautiful antique glass ornaments from my grandmothers to a plastic Big Bird that one of my girls received as a gift. And yes, Big Bird still goes on the tree, but he has to go towards the bottom as he’s rather, well, BIG.

The ornaments in Festive Cheer are the type my grandmothers had. Ink doesn’t generate the same translucence that glass exhibits, but these shapes are spot on. I had a hard time choosing colors, so of course I didn’t: I just kept on stamping!

Do you have a favorite? And do you have a curated, themed Christmas tree or a chaotic culture clash as I do? They’re both absolutely perfect, because it’s Christmas.

ADVENT TREAT BOXES WITH WHISPERING WOODS DSP

The Whispering Woods DSP has a color palette of all my favorite colors. It’s got a holiday theme, but a lot of the designs cross over from holiday to all occasion – double the use! I chopped some up to cover our Advent Treat boxes for a holiday event.

This is a quick and easy project. I didn’t wrap the DSP around the box but cut rectangles to fit on the sides. Add a sentiment on the top with a few die cuts for embellishment, a bit of ribbon, and you’re finished!

The Advent Treat Boxes are 2 1/2″ x 3 1/2″ and 2 1/2″ tall, making them a little bigger than many of our previous boxes. They’re economical too, just $15 for 24 boxes. Stock up while they’re still available!
