Gift Packaging Archives

Here’s the last project of 2016- a MidCentury Gift Box Set by Christie Troxell, one of our Guest Designers for December!

Christie blogs at Ritzy Parties – visit her site to see more unique projects and events she has coordinated.

She covered the Sizzix Flower Pocket die with coordinated patterned paper to create the Gift Box and added rickrack for a dash of style.

The Flower Pocket is embellished with a beautiful Pansy flower and jeweled center.

The package that goes inside the pocket is adorned with a paper leaf from the Spring Leaves die. The gift is wrapped in coordinating papers.

This project is a delightful way to start off the New Year- thanks for sharing this awesome MidCentury Gift Box Set, Christie!

And we have lots more in store for you in 2017…

Please follow my Paper Trail adventures! I leave in less than two weeks for the Craft & Hobby Association show in Phoenix AZ with vintage trailer Scotty in tow. Scotty will be parked on the trade show floor again this year. The journey there and back is bound to be another adventure and I hope to sprinkle in some Facebook Live videos along the way and, of course, at the show. Get a sneak peek of my new Sizzix collection coming out in March… it’s new dies and a new product that is my first attempt in a new direction!

We will be starting a new feature on the blog this coming Monday. There will be a chance for you to share what you have been working on too so we hope you will join us.

Last but not least we have an announcement coming soon about the Eileen Hull Inspiration Team…

Follow me on social media and journey along the Paper Trail on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.

Health, happiness and peace to you in 2017, friends!
