I got my Holiday Catalog preorder on Friday, so I was inspired to come up with a Christmas project this weekend. The idea for a sliding door on a treat cup is not new, but the star framelits were new this year, and this project also gives you a sneak peek at the Nordic Noel designer series paper that will be available August 28. The directions for this tag are in the video.
I also came up with this gift card holder using Nordic Noel dsp. Since it coordinates so well, I will show it today, too. Can you make out what is in the shaker? Little stars! They are punched from the Confetti Stars Punch that will also be available August 28. Too fun!!
I used a bit of cello from a clear envelope as my window here, and it is pressed flat against the confetti. The confetti doesn’t shake around too much, but I really just wanted the look of a shaker here. I added a pocket to the back for a gift card.
Just be careful to tape the whole perimeter of the star when you are assembling the front so that the confetti can’t escape. Here’s a view of mine, before it was assembled. You can’t see it too well in the picture, but the cello is already in place.
Have a great day!
