Visions of Sugarplums Day Three



Welcome back!  We're right in the middle of a fun week of Christmas!  

Today I've got a couple of projects featuring graphics from Cameo Shoppe.  Cristina is one of the sponsors of Visions of Sugarplums and is generously offering a giveaway every day!



First up is a pillow box that I made with a Pillow Box Punch Board.  (I've put one of these in the Mega GiveAway.)  It is a pretty cool tool!  You can see one of Cameo Shoppe's circle images there.  Isn't the pink tree pretty?  It's a part of the Christmas Circle Tags set.



I guess I'm not tired yet of the gusseted bags.  This one is a fun size!  



I used a couple more of the pretty circle tags to create snowflakes.  I think these images are just adorable!  If you want to know how to make the 3D snowflakes, you can see them HERE.

Here's how to make the skinny bag with a rounded flap:



You need two sheets of printed paper.  Cut one panel to 6" x 10 3/4".  Score at 1/2", 1", and 1 1/2".  Also score at 4 1/2", 5", and 5 1/2".  



Turn it and score at 1/2" and 8 3/4".




Cut away the top corners on the 8 3/4" score line and on the 1/2" score line from above.  To make the rounded flap. use a circle die.  When you run it through your die cutting machine, don't run it all the way through.  Stop at the 8 3/4" score line - otherwise you'll just have cut a big circle out! 



Fold the gussets (instructions HERE).  Fold up the bottom 1/2".  Cut a second panel to 3" x 8 3/4".  Die cut a half circle into the top.   And glue it to the gusseted panel.  Fold the flap over and you're done!

You bring so much fun to the holidays for me and I just love it! Thanks so much for all the inspiration and your growing goody bag looks fabulous too.

  3. OH my!! I can't believe I won again! So exciting.
    I love your projects again today. I have a question. How do you stop from cutting the circle all the way thru? It looks so perfect.
    I love the tags and the soft colors you are using.

  7. Beautiful creations again today! Makes me wish I had a Cameo! Thank you for the tutorial on the skinny bag - would love to try this - you make it look so easy! Please count me in for your wonderful giveaways (well maybe not the Cameo one - it would be better for someone with a Cameo!). I'm off to do the rest of the hop now - thank you!

  9. Another creative day on the Visions of Sugarplums blog hop. The vintage graphics from the Cameo Shop are so cute!! I seriously remember those images from Christmas cards I received when I was a little girl. Brings back wonderful memories.

    I like the choice of papers you used for both the box and the bag you created. Your projects are VERY NICE and I really appreciate the tutorials. It always helps me to have a visual.

    I would be grateful to win any prize from any of these generous shops. Thank you for sharing.
