Today's project is a 2021 Stampin' Up! Christmas Gift Coupon Folder that made its first appearance on my YouTube premiere this evening. This idea came to me when thinking of Lyla and Mia, two of our grands, and how much they appreciate experiences and special "Honey and Papa" time. 

Since I did not have the Penguin bundle and it's not available for order, I thought that this designer paper that was earned for FREE as a Sale-A-Bration item would be perfect for this project.

Watch the video then make a list of all your young and young at heart family and friends that would appreciate this little gift!

You heard it right!  I made a "junk journal" with my Stampin' Up! supplies and I want to share it with you!

If you are not sure about a junk journal, it's a compilation of papers, vintage pages, ephemera, and embellishments to make a book for almost anything!

Here are some ideas:

• Mini photo album
• Memory keeping book
• Gratitude journal
• Recipes
• Scripture journal
• Bible Study notes
• Book of prayers or prayer intentions
• Travel journal

A Junk Journal can be anything you want it to be and these are so much fun to make!

You can get a Junk Journal Kit and online class for FREE when you place a Stampin' Up! order of $50 or more (before shipping and tax) through me, Lisa Brown, Ink and Inspirations.  It features the Nature's Harvest Bundle so add that to your list!

Thanks for checking in today for this easy DIY gift packaging tutorial...it's your turn to give it a try!

Let's start off Monday with a handmade "Thank You Gift Tag"!  These tags were made to attach to little gifts to those who placed a qualifying order with me or through my Stampin' Up! Online Store in March 2021. 

Featured here are two of my favorites from the Stampin' Up! Last Chance list... the So Sentimental Cling Stamp Set (English) [151691] and Forever Greenery DSP.  This stamp set was designed specifically to "fit" the Stitched So Sweetly Dies [151690] which are not retiring (thank goodness!) and will be carried over into the new Stampin' Up! Catalog.

Here are the dies with the set (So Sentimental Bundle (English) [153828]) so you can see how well these coordinate...

To create the cut flagged end of the thank you gift tag, the Banner Triple Punch [138292] was used.  This item is retiring soon and is currently offered at a great discount!  You can easily make banner pieces in three widths: 1", 1-1/2", and 2".

If you'd like to see two more projects made with this stamp set, be sure to take a look at this card and this gift bag!

Here's a stack of these gifts with the handmade thank you gift tags!

These tags can easily be removed and used as a tag on a card front.  How about that...two gifts in one!

If you enjoyed this post, be sure to...

• Use the current Host Code (BABZYNMS) when placing an order of less than $150.  If it's $150 or more, you will receive Stampin' Rewards from Stampin' Up! for free product. (Orders of $50 or more receive a gift from me!)

It's Tuesday and today we have an easy DIY project with the Stampin' Up! Flowering Cactus Product Medley.  

I am always on the lookout for tea towels or dish towels that coordinate well with our stamp sets and designer papers.  The cactus-themed towel used in today's project is from Dollar Tree!  Here's one from last year with an Easter theme.

The color scheme in the Flowering Cactus Product Medley is different from the bright colors on this towel.  As you'll see in the video, it was easy to coordinate other Stampin' Up! Colors to match the towel.  Watch the video to see the process of this easy DIY gift with Stampin' Up! Flowering Cactus!

Lisa's Inklings:

• Cut coordinating cardstock layer to 2" x 5".
• Cut designer paper to match at 1-3/4 x 4-3/4.
• You will need a piece of Basic White approximately 4" x 5" to stamp and cut your image.
• For the sentiment, a 3/4" strip of Basic White was used and cut to fit.

Here are the supplies used for this project.

Today's feature is an Easter card and Easter basket video so you can make these for the little ones in your life.

These Easter projects were first shown on my Facebook LIVE this past Wednesday.  I am planning to give these to our granddaughters for Easter.  The card has an easy fun fold element when you open the inside of the card. Let's take a look at the video to see the process.

Lisa's Inklings:
Card-

• Basic White Cardstock [159276] card base- 5-1/2 x 8-1/2, a piece for stamping and fussy cutting, and a 1 x 8-1/2 piece for the fold inside.  Score at 2-1/4, 4-1/4, and 6-1/4.
• Highland Heather Cardstock [146986]- 4 x 5-1/4  and a piece for the die-cut label.
• Hydrangea Hill Designer Series Paper [154570] 3-3/4 x 5.
• Misty Moonlight Cardstock [153081] small piece for the die-cut label.

Here's a look at that interior fun fold...

Basket-

• Highland Heather Cardstock [146986] cut 8-1/2 x 8-1/2. Score at 2-1/2" on all 4 sides.
• Highland Heather Cardstock [146986] for handle- 1-1/4 x 8-1/2.
• Hydrangea Hill Designer Series Paper [154570] - 4 pieces cut at 3-1/4 x 2-1/4; one piece 1 x 8-1/2 for the handle.
• Basic White Cardstock [159276] white for stamping and punching.
• Misty Moonlight Cardstock [153081] 1 x 1-1/4.

This little Easter basket and card will be perfect for our little girls.  Here's another basket design...a tad bit smaller and made from Designer paper.  You can see that this basket holds more fun trinkets and treats!

Here are the supplies used to create both of these projects...

Thank you for your support of my small business.  When you purchase Stampin' Up! supplies from me, it allows me to continue offering videos and project ideas for you!

Thanks for tuning in today! Now that you have all the details, create something fun to be the light to someone special.   I hope you've been inspired to make an Easter card and basket for the little ones in your life.

Happy New Year's Eve!  Today's project is a fun and easy desk calendar that will be sent to those who ordered Stampin' Up! through me in December. 

I can get rather chatty during my lives but it's fun and you will see me make several of these calendars in different styles.

Here is the recording of the Facebook Live...

Today's project and quick video tutorial is a gift idea that you could create in minutes!

This idea is actually a re-make of the project seen here with a different, more masculine theme, as well as different packaging.

Here's a quick video.  If you'd like the dimensions, you can find on this post.

Here's hoping this idea will come in handy if you need  a last minute gift for someone.  I bet you can look through your supplies and find some stamps, ink, and paper that will be perfect to make a set of these note cards. 

Be sure to take time to enjoy the holidays by doing something special/different for yourself even if you're staying at home. Listen to Christmas music, watch your favorite holiday movie, and rejoice for that God sent that tiny baby, His Son, born all those years ago who came to save us all.

God Bless You all this Christmas season! 

Now that we've made a special set of stationery cards, how about making a simple pretty box for gift packaging?

Our Acetate Card Boxes [144628] are beautiful, easy to embellish, and make an excellent presentation for your handmade creations!

Here's a super quick video tutorial so that you can make your own!

Lisa's Inklings:

• The "belly band" from the Peony Garden Designer Series Paper [152483] measures 2-1/2 x 12.
• You will need a small piece of Whisper White 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock [100730] for the tag.
• Use a generous amount of Petal Pink 5/8"Organdy Striped Ribbon [149441] to tie the bow.  I suggest at least 24".

Here are the supplies used to make this gift packaging...
