Let It Snow Layout


Have you sat in a hot tub in the winter, while it's snowing?
Well you need to try it!

Then, to create the perfectly snowy layout to remember those moments, grab the DCWV Christmas Village, Favor Boxes and Ornaments Stacks!


It's hard to tell in the picture, but the layout sheet is a beautifully thick, textured, glittery page from the back of the DCWV DIY PROJECT STACK - CHRISTMAS VILLAGE.



The adorable snowflakes came from both the DCWV DIY PROJECT STACK - FAVOR BOXES and the DCWV DIY PROJECT STACK - ORNAMENTS



And of course, I always love to throw some darling Blue Moon Beads Charms in wherever I can! This little metal snowflake charm was perfect!

DCWV Corrugate Christmas Gift Tag

Want a unique touch to your handmade gift tags this Christmas Season? Add a real pine tree sprig.

I created this large gift tag with DCWV Box of Corrugate Cards, and placed an oval piece of grey paper on top.


I strung a Blue Moon Beads Wish Charm on some silver string and wrapped around the tag.
I cut a small piece of a pine tree, sprinkled with some white glitter and then added some Blue Moon Beads Silver Round Metal Beads as ornaments.

This tag was quick and easy to create, and is sure to gain some attention!

DCWV - Metallic Gold Tree - Cork Advent Calendar


Everyone loves to countdown to Christmas.
Make it easy on yourself, and fun for everyone with an Advent Calendar.



I made this fun little tree from a few cuts of wood, metallic gold spray paint and a bunch of nails.


For the numbers I used the DCWV Natural Cork Stack, a circle punch and some white paint. Each circle is hand painted with a number, and then hole punched at the top. They are simply hung off of nails.


I crafted a bunch of cute little gifts to sit under my tree, but you can put real gifts if you'd like! These darling DCWV Boxes all come in one nifty package. A large variety of sizes for all of your little gifts. And we all know the best gifts come in the smallest packages!!

I wrapped them with some fun DCWV papers.


Another fun wrapping idea is to use a standard circle hole punch and DCWV Metallic Cardstock. Punch a bunch of circles and randomly stick them on the box with GlueDots! Perfect polka dots!

Mercury Glass Holiday Gift Card Holders

Being on the DCWV Guest Designer Team is just incredible. 
I get to work with some of the most incredible new products. 

In my latest shipment, I received this gorgeous DCWV Mercury Glass Paper. It comes with 4 different shades.


The sheets of paper are thick, durable and perfectly metallic.
...and of course they made my Holiday Gift Card Holders absolutely magnificent!




For the back of the card, I spray painted a chipboard frame and hot glued a cut piece of the DCWV Insta Photo Fun plastic sheet. It made a perfect pocket for the gift card.




I also tied on a Blue Moon Bead Jingle Bell Charm.






These glittery flowers from the Dollar Tree look amazing on the front of the card, and matched the Mercury Glass paper perfectly.

 Here is the finished Mercury Glass Holiday Gift Card Holder.
Very easy to make, and add so much to the gift!
