Every Craft Fair Season I am always looking for something to add to my stash. Well, this season I saw another crafter create something like this, but wanted to really simplify for mass production. Note in the photo below I used up some of my retired Stampin’ Up! Designer Paper. This is the perfect project to use up that older Designer Paper that you may be hoarding like I was.
For the instruction of this project, I decided I wanted to pull out my Santa Express Bundle and pair it with my favorite Stary Sky 6×6 In Color Paper. I am a blue girl for sure!!! This Bundle is so adorable, in fact it will be making another appearance tomorrow (December, 16, 2023) for another top-selling Craft Fair item from this Holiday Season.
For this Project, you will just need these simple pieces.
PROJECT DIMENSIONS:
Cardbase Starry Sky 3/12″ x 5 1/2″
Along the 5 1/2″ Side Score at 2 3/8″ and 3 1/8″
3 pieces of 2 1/8″ x 3 1/4″ 6×6 In- Color Designer Paper in Starry Sky.
1 Strip of matching DSP 5 /8″ x 3 1/4″
1″x3″ Strip of Starry Sky Cardstock scored at 3/4″ and 2 1/4″ or 3/4″ on both sides
about 16″ of ribbon of your choice. I used the organdy glitter ribbon on this project TIP You will want to place the ribbon down first under DSP
TIP for Lip Balm Holder Portion
I really enjoyed creating these simple projects for Craft Fairs. I find that typically these sell better than treats. Now keep in mind that did not hold me from creating some treats. Each Craft Fair can be completely different from the next. Be sure to come back tomorrow for my Tea and Biscoff Treat holder.
All the supplies for this project today are listed below
I have a new obsession with the Kindest Gnomes Bundle. Growing up as part Norweigan my mom and her sisters had Gnomes EVERYWHERE!! So, Naturally when Stampin’ Up! came out with their Gnome bundle I was sold!! I created 3 simple cards for you today to show how versatile and fun building these Gnomes are.
In fact, I love building these Gnomes so much that I offered to help my amazing friend Patty Bennett to create some fun projects for her Customers. SEE HEREto see what Patty ended up making. Here is a fun photo I took after creating her Gnomes. Can you guess how many Gnomes? Leave me a comment and tell me your guess,
Candy Cane Gnome
Cardbase Garden Green 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″
Cardbase Thick Basic White 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″

I am not going to lie I was actually highly impressed by how well he did. He has never ever picked up a stamp and used an ink pad before. As you see in the video he has bear paws for hands so he is definitely heavy-handed. You will also see how he uses Liquid Glue for the first time.
I hope this encourages you to get your spouse to stamp with you. They actually might surprise you.
If you enjoyed today’s post, I hope you subscribe to my blog and Youtube Channel where I come to you live each Thursday at 4pm PST. Until Next Time, Happy Crafting!!!
