Christmas Corner

Hi Everyone!

First off, I would like to share a quick little Christmas project that I have made.  I just love having some extra special packaging made ahead for little Christmas treats during December.

I made this hot cocoa packet with SVG files from the Cup of Cocoa and Tea set from My Scrap Chick.  I didn't do much to alter the original files, just cut them from scrap paper and embossed the snowflake and whipped cream.  A standard sized hot cocoa packet slips right in behind the removable cocoa insert, which you can use to add your greeting. 

I also completed another Christmas Card for my stash, using the same concept as the rest of my cards for the week.  (I don't know about you, but I am already bored with posting the same style of card five days in a row.  I am going to start mixing it up!  It's hard enough to stay awake during the long cold winter months with out being bored by our hobbies, right?) 

I used foam to mount the embossed panels, and the holly.  The text was printed prior to embossing and cutting the panels.  I colored the holly using Distress Inks, and added the berries with Distress Stickles. 

Here is the inside:

I used a Tim Holtz stamp, and added a border of the same Hot Off the Press designer paper that I used on front.

I'll be back soon with more cards to share.  (and more variety, too!)
