Its All about the packaging!!

Here there, Chauntelle here with another project for The Cutting Cafe Blog!!  This week's project was dedicated to the packaging; packaged gifts, treats, etc. it was all up to the crafter!!  As I mentioned in an earlier post I participated in Tmika's Shaped Card Swap and I chose The CD holder set which was PERFECT for the task!!

Check out this cuteness!!


I made 6 total to fit the tags I made for the swap.  This file was super easy to cut and put together, I even increased all four sides to make the package a bit thicker to fit the many, many embellishments I added to the tags.  Check out my video where I explain all the details: https://www.youtube.com/edit?o=U&video_id=27pstTpfTDw


Here's a few front view pics!



Here's a view from the size where you can see the depth of the packaging.


I dyed some white seam-binding with a little walnut stain, added some lace trim and a button to finish off the packaging.  Super cute, quick, easy and presents well to the receiver!!

Happy Monday and thanks for stopping by today!!

Season for Gift Giving

Hey my crafty friends!!  Today I'd like to share with you my design team post for The Cutting Cafe - December 21st post!!  This week was a free week....Christmas themed; which was perfect for the holiday season and opportunity to fill that "last minute" Christmas gift giving list! Do you know the farmer who had a dog??  What was his name??  BINGO!!  Oh, yes!! LOL!! Bingo was a favorite game of my family's when we were growing up; the song and the board game!  Well guess who has a Christmas BINGO game in their shop??   The Cutting Cafe does!!  Yes, yes and I just had to create one.  I plan to present the game at Christmas, pull it out for the family to play and give a gift to the winner(s)...I bought three gifts - the fourth gift will be the BINGO game set! This pdf file was super easy to print and cut for assemble.  I cut a 12x12 sheet of 3/4" circles on my cameo in green and red for the chips.  A box with clear top that I normally use to hold car
