There’s just a couple of weeks to get those Christmas card created and in the mail.

(Click here to see a free tutorial using this same bundle.) Find this bundle in Stampin’ Up!’s September-December 2024 Mini Catalog.
I love how the white heat embossing folder creates a gingerbread house.

Stampin’ Up!’s Reindeer Fun Bundle offers lots of opportunity to create super cute handmade greeting cards. (Click here to see one post.) But, I’ve also made some adorable DIY gift packaging. By folding the bag and adding a decorative belly band, you create two pockets that allow you to include any number of small gift items. I added a hot chocolate packet, candy cane, and chocolate. But you could include a greeting card, gift card, other candy, etc.
In today’s post, I share two versions of this fun gift packaging idea with you.
Measurements and Details
Flat paper sack measuring 7 1/2 x 5.
From the bottom, fold up approximately two inches.
Add a belly band measuring 12 x 2: Reindeer Days 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper, creating a front pocket. I adhered the belly band in the front and covered it with the circle.
Stylish Shapes Die circle die cut with Real Red card stock and embossed with Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Powder.
Deer stamped with Early Espresso ink on Basic Beige card stock. Added harness with Real Red ink. Die cut with Reindeer Fun coordinating die.
Real Red & White Baker’s Twine
See another version below. I used the holly dies from the Reindeer Fun Dies with the Festive 12 x 12 Glimmer Paper and the Reindeer Days Designer Series Paper.
