Christmas in July Day 2: Spellbinders Celebrate the Season Sled Tag with Stamperia Romantic Christmas

Hello, Friends!  It’s day 2 of Christmas in July and we’re going to make this wonderful vintage Spellbinders Celebrate the Season Sled Tag together.  If you were lucky enough to grow up with snow at Christmas, then you probably remember the thrill of belly flopping onto a wooden sled and shrieking your way all the way to the bottom of a big hill.   This adorable sled die brought all kinds of delightful memories back to my mind as I was working with it.

The base of our Tim Holtz Etcetera Tag measures 4 1/2″ x 8″. It’s the perfect size to set out on a little side table or in a mantel display.  Dress it up with Stamperia Romantic Christmas papers to create a delightful botanical/nostalgic vibe.

Celebrate the Season Sled

Ok…true confessions.  I’m kinda smitten with this little sled. I die cut it from patterned woodgrain paper, and I love the way it turned out. The die set comes with the sled, skates, poinsettia and greenery.   You can use the sled with or without the ice skates, but why would you not want to use those cute skates?   

At first I thought the poinsettias were too small, but by the time I was finished, I decided that I really like the size.  They flow perfectly with the size of the sled, of course.  But I can also see myself using these as “filler” with other flower dies.  They are super easy to make, as you will see in the video tutorial.

I hope you’ll join me on my YouTube channel as I create this fun Christmas tag.  There’s a little surprise element that I have not shown you in these photos.  Enjoy!

 

I’ll be back on Throwback Thursday with another Christmas in July tutorial.

Tiara Trifold Slimline Card with Graphic 45 Cottage Life

My project for the hop is this Tiara Trifold Slimline Card.  This month’s Amazing Paper Grace Die of the Month is just lovely and truly versatile!  Here’s how to use it on a slimline card.

  • First, lay out all the die pieces on a piece of white cardstock.
  • Next, run the die through your die cutting  machine using the sandwich recommended.
  • Now, repeat the process.
  • Trim about 2″ off the bottom edge of each die cut.
  • Adhere the die cuts on either end of an 8 1/2″ x 4 1/4″ slimline card base.
  • Place the focal image in the center of the card and add embellishments.

Here’s a peek at the inside:

Add a small pocket inside the card, then tuck in a gift card wallet.  Easy and elegant!

More Projects with Tiara Trifold

I’ve had loads of fun with this wonderful die! Here are a few other projects I’ve made with it.

It makes a gorgeous gift box!  You can find more details on this project HERE.

On this card, I cut the die in half to make it longer. The I placed it behind my focal image.  Then I built my flower arrangement around it.

Fun Ways to Use the Tiara Trifold Tag

Use the Tiara Trifold Die to make a pretty tag tuck in for a folio pocket.

TIP: Create a little tip in feature on your tag for extra fun.  Instead of cutting along the perforated line, cut about 2″ over from it to form a little flap.  Then trim the top of the flap so that it lines up with the bottom of the filigree.

Here’s a peek at the inside of the tag.

Stamperia Garden of Promises Flip Folio for RRR

Stamperia Garden of Promises Flip Folio for Really Reasonable Ribbon July 2022 Blog Hop by Kathy Clement Kathy by Design Photo 01

Stamperia Garden of Promises Flip Folio for Really Reasonable Ribbon July 2022 Blog Hop

Hello, Friends!  Today I’m sharing a Stamperia Garden of Promises Flip Folio as my inspiration project for the Really Reasonable Ribbon Club July 2022 Blog Hop. You should be coming here from Gloria’s lovely blog. This month’s Vintage Floral Assortment Ribbon Club  is the perfect pairing for this lovely paper collection.  Take a peek!

Vintage Floral Garden of Promises

Stamperia Garden of Promises Flip Folio Really Reasonable Ribbon July 2022 Ribbon Club Kathy Clement Kathy by Design Photo 01

How did I use the Ribbon Club Assortment in this 6×6 flip folio?  Let me count the ways!

  • First, create a ribbon closure with the elegant Wild Rose Taffeta Ribbon. This shade of pink made these vintage papers come alive.
  • Next, add a ribbon watch fob to a metallic clock embellishment.  The 3/8″ Mini Floral Print and Wild Rose Satin Swiss Dot, are sized perfectly for this task.
  • Then don’t forget to add a little ribbon at the top of the dangle charm on the spine of the folio.  It’s the perfect finishing touch, and it covers the hole punch and hardware nicely.
A Peek Inside

Ribbon adds texture, color and style inside this little folio, too.  French Blue Delicate Stitched Satin holds this pull out page neatly in place.

TIP: Attach a chipboard charm to the ribbon closure with jump rings.

Wild Rose Satin Swiss Dots Ribbon makes a great border on the top of this box pocket.  I use 1/4″ Scor-Tape to hold it securely in place.

Dress up this Spellbinders Tiara Trifold Tag with a bit of 5/8″ Vintage Floral Satin Ribbon.  It’s also fun to tie a snippet of Tiny Butterfly Print Satin around a wooden honey dipper.

Stamperia Casa Granada Card Kit Reveal Button Farm Club Kathy Clement Photo 01 Stamperia Casa Granada Card Kit Reveal for The Button Farm Club

Hello, Friends!  This Stamperia Casa Granada Card Kit Reveal is the next best thing to a summer kitchen in Spain!  Oh, the rich colors, terra cotta tiles and gorgeous vintage images in this beautiful paper collection!  They captured my imagination, and the minute I saw them, I knew this had to be our Button Farm Club Summer Card Kit!

Stamperia Casa Granada Loaded Pocket Cards by Kathy Clement Photo 01

Pomegranates, crockery bowls, vibrant poppies and an adorable little snail inspired these loaded pocket cards.

Each pocket has a little post card, tags and the cutest little accordion tag folio!  It’s a gift all on its own, but there’s room to tuck in a gift card or a tea bag and honey stick if you are so inclined.

This is one of the images that made me swoon!  You’ll have to watch the video to see the surprise on the inside!

And we  have not one, but TWO slimline shaker card folios in this kit.  These are perfect for gift-giving, as the inside is not your ordinary card.

There’s a fun kinetic waterfall feature, a little hidden side pocket, and a tag folio pocket, too.  You’ll even find room for a photo or two on the inside.

Old World Charm

This cutaway card is oozing with Old World charm.  Cracked tiles, chippy crockery and an old tea pot filled with posies lends lots of charm.

And you’ll find lots of kinetic surprises inside these pretty cards, too.

Like pop-up features?  We got that!

Belly Bands?  And fancy folds?  Check!

These double gatefold cards even have a little bookmark action on the inside.

Flip Folio

In addition to the 9 cards in this kit, we also managed to squeeze in a mighty sweet little flip folio!

Here’s a peek at the cover without that fabulous dimensional belly band.

And I promise you…there are some very fun features tucked inside this wonderful design!
