Joy Gift Bag

 


Hey Quietfire Fans! For today's project I'm sharing with how to create this easy to make Joy Gift Bag for adding that special touch to those little gifts. I've combined a variety of Quietfire Design Stamps and Modern Gilding Powders which were all perfect for creating this gift bag. You'll want to grab a cup of your favourite beverage and learn how to recreate my Joy Gift Bag at home.

To start, you'll need a cotton bag of whatever size you'd like. Apply Vermillion Archival Ink to the Merry Christmas Background and stamp at the bottom of the tag. Reapply ink to the stamp and continue stamping to the top of the bag. 


Die cut a 2 1/2" Stitched Indented Rectangle out of a piece of cream cardstock.


Die cut a 3" Stitched Indented Rectangle out of a piece of red cardstock. 


Apply Emboss It Ink to the tree stamp from the Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas stamp set and stamp on the cream rectangle. Sprinkle Copper Scroll Modern Gilding Powders over the stamped tree. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. 
Die cut a 2 1/4" Stitched Circle out of a piece of kraft cardstock. Apply Emboss It Ink to the Joy word from the Bright Holiday Words Stamp Set and stamp onto the circle. Sprinkle Kells Gold Modern Gilding Powders overtop of the joy word. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool.
Distress the edges of both rectangles and circle. Ink the edges of both rectangles and circle using Walnut Stain Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.


Adhere the 2 1/2" rectangle to the 3" rectangle. Foam square the 3" rectangle to the middle of the bag.


To finish the bag, use adhesive and foam squares to adhere the joy circle to the bottom right corner of the bag.


Here are a few closeups of the finished gift bag.

Season's Greetings Christmas Card

 


Hey Quietfire Fans! For today's project I'm sharing with how to create this vintage Season's Greetings Christmas Card. I combined a variety of Quietfire Design Stamps, A Way With Words Dies and Modern Gilding Powders which were all perfect for creating this Christmas Card. You'll want to grab a cup of your favourite beverage and learn how to recreate my Season's Greetings Christmas Card at home.

To start, you'll need a piece of red patterned cardstock. Die cut a 4" Stitched Indented Rectangle out of the cardstock piece. Distress the edges of the rectangle. Ink the edges of the rectangle using Walnut Stain Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.


Next, you'll need a piece of dark green patterned cardstock. Die cut a 3 3/4" Fitted Indented Rectangle out of the cardstock piece. Apply Emboss It Ink to the Merry Christmas Background stamp and stamp onto the rectangle. Reapply ink to the stamp and continue stamping on the rectangle as desired. Sprinkle Kells Gold Modern Gilding Powders over the stamped background. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. Distress the edges of the rectangle. Ink the edges of the rectangle using Walnut Stain Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.


Die cut a 3/4" Diagonal Stitched Fishtail out of a plain piece of red cardstock. Apply Emboss It Ink to the Season's Greetings sentiment from the Poinsettia Banner & Sentiments stamp set and stamp onto the fishtail. Sprinkle Kells Gold Modern Gilding Powders over the stamped sentiment. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. Distress the edges of the banner. Ink the edges of the banner using Walnut Stain Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.


From the Flourished Candle, die cut the whole candle image out of a piece of copper foil paper. Die cut the candle edge and flame out of a piece of White Cardstock. Using a blending tool with foam, blend Squeezed Lemonade Distress Ink over the entire surface of the flame.


Adhere the 3 3/4" rectangle to the 4" rectangle. Adhere the 3/4" fishtail 1/4" from the bottom and all the way to the left hand side of the 3 3/4" rectangle.


Adhere the flame to the flame on the copper piece. Adhere the candle edge to the candle edge on the copper piece. 


Use foam squares to adhere the flourished candle 1" from the bottom and 1/2" from the left of the 3 3/4" rectangle.


To finish the card, cut a cardbase out of white cardstock that measures 4" x 10 1/2", score at 5 1/4". Adhere the cardfront to the cardbase.


Here are a few closeups of the finished Christmas Card.
