Whether you're hopping over from
Judy DiScipio's blog or just arriving -- welcome!! This month the Control Freaks are sharing projects created from brand new products in the
Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog. I hope we are inspiring you to get started on your holiday crafting!
I chose to use the
Thankful Tablescape Simply Created Kit for my projects today. I have four kids under the age of 10 who certainly don't appreciate beautiful table decorations, so I wanted to use the pieces in this kit to make cards and other projects.
The
Thankful Tablescape Simply Created Kit (
#133463) includes
napkin
holders (cardstock holders, Designer Series Paper belly bands, name
banners, journaling cards); table tents (Designer Series Paper bases,
die-cut chalkboard labels, White Stampin’ Chalk Marker); centerpiece
wraps (birch paper ribbon, Chocolate Chip paper ribbon); accents (Linen
Thread and die-cut printed leaves). So there were lots of pieces to pick and choose from in creating my projects.
Here's what I did with the "napkin holder". I just folded over the top so that it would be a closed pouch ready for gift-giving.

For the next project, I used the new
Flip Card Thinlit Dies. Have you tried these yet? They are so, so easy! I used the designer paper, wrap, and linen thread from the Thankful Tablescape Kit on this card.

For my last card, I used the "centerpiece wraps" from the Thankful Tablescape Kit and also the die cut leaf. I used the Autumn Accents die to cut another leaf from the Tangerine "belly band" included in the kit.
