18 Days of Christmas Projects - DAY 4


Welcome to Day 4 of La-La Land Crafts 18 Days of Christmas Projects! 

 Hello My Friends!!
My name is Dawn and I am a guest designer here at La-La Land Crafts.

My project for today is a postcard gift box. I made several styles and a process video for you to follow along if this is something you would like to make as well.


This box measures 3.5 x 5 inches and easily fits the 3 dimensional postcards in the photo below. I used the Snow Amazing Stamp Set  to create the box top and fronts of the postcards and the
Christmas Postcard Stamp Set for the back of the cards


Because I colored so many images I made it easy on myself and used my Spectrum Noir Tri- Blend Markers.



I will link my blog under the video at the end. You can find more photos and a complete list of linked products for each of the sets I made.


Here is the one I created using the Dear Santa Stamp Set.


I used A Caroling We Go Clear Stamp Set for this one.



For my last set I wanted to make some non holiday cards so I used the Happy Trails Stamp Set for this box and I love love love the night time camping scenes you can create with all the coordinating dies that work perfectly with this stamp set.

My Favorite Christmas Memory
Every year when as my kids were growing up we would have a giant Christmas Eve box that they could open. Inside that box we put small gifts they could use on Christmas Eve. Holiday PJ's, slippers, snacks, a family game and a holiday movie. We would have an early dinner, open the giant box and then spend the evening together playing and watching movies. Christmas morning is always hectic with family coming and cooking so the Christmas Eve tradition gave us a chance to enjoy family time with our 5 kids.
My children are all adults now some with children of their own and the tradition is still going strong! If they even think were skipping the box I hear all kinds of groaning so this is one tradition that will never go away no matter how old we get.

What are your favorite Holiday traditions?

I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas filled with family and friends.

Hugs Dawn

Thank You so much for spending some time with me and I hope you give this little project a try!

    Darling winter scenes! Love the cute bunnies and snowman!
    My favorite holiday tradition is baking several kinds of Christmas cookies, packaging them up and delivering to friends and neighbors!

    These are all super, super cute! I love your holiday tradition. We always spent Christmas Eve with our dear friends and their children. We have dinner and usually play a board game or two. Now, we still spend it with them and whatever adult kids are around to share it with us =)

    Fantastic cards and a great process video. I'm not a great cook so every year my daughters and I try a fancy recipe on Christmas Day, and it's not always a success.
