Here I am today with more great ideas to create digitally with My Digital Studio. These make awesome gifts and remember to use MDS and other SU! paper crafts and embellishments for creative packaging. There is currently an up to 80% off sale going on right now.
As
I started working on Christmas gifts for co-workers and neighbors,
every gift started with the same gift box but each became filled with
different kinds of fun (based on how much I like the person)! LOL. Let's
be honest; we all spend more time on the people we love the most.
All three projects below use just one download; I loved the images in the Snowy Soiree Ensemble but I used the recolor tool to make the colors look more like Christmas. It's always so fun to find new ways to use a download.
Box #1 was filled with cookie fun!
These would be perfect for co-workers, bank tellers, and teachers (especially when your child has seven of them).
This was a quick and easy project. I stamped the tree and the banner and then added a photo box circle (see tip below) on an 8-1/2" x 11" page. Then I copied them three times each so I could print three boxes at once.
Tip on the Christmas tree ring: Insert a photo box (sized to 3-1/4") and change the shape to a circle so you can easily recolor the Christmas tree paper. The Circle Collection Framelits fit perfectly around the inside (1-7/8") and outside (3-5/8") to create a ring for the window in the gift box to peek out!
Box #2 was filled with handmade happiness!
Imagine your neighbor coming over with this cute box of tags, a roll of craft wrapping paper, and some matching ribbon. You'd do a Happy Dance, right? You bet, because they would have made your holidays a little easier! That's the feeling I'm going for this year. Why don't you try it with me? I created six tags with the same download I had already used on the box for an instant gift ensemble.
And last but not least . . .
Box #3 was a labor of love! (Remember, I told you I spend more time on the ones I love *wink*.) This box was something that I knew my friends and family with little ones would use.
Since I had already made the box, I continued with the Snowy Soiree Ensemble to create 24 mini envelopes filled with holiday activities.
Tip: Anytime I want to see my "cut lines" on a hybrid project I use the red guidelines. It also doesn't hurt to add them if you have objects that you want to center. Once I printed both pages with the 24 squares, I cut them and used the punch board to make little envelopes.
I can just see those sweet little faces as they count down the holidays with family fun activities, like making hot cocoa and a nighttime adventure filled with Christmas lights. The best part is the adults can put the activities in the envelope that will fit their schedule best!
I hope your holidays are Filled with Fun as you create for the ones who are near and dear to your heart.
