The Petaloo, Xyron, and Graphic 45 Blog Hop: Holiday Home Decor Day 7

  About Roses Layout, Off to the Races, by Elena Olinevich, product by Graphic45, photo05

"It’s almost the time of the year! And we need to be prepared! And as some of you know I’m living by the beach.. So I was thinking why don’t have a Christmas by the Sea the theme of this Christmas! and with Petaloo and Xyron you can make this easy and fast home decor!

Also when I was editing my pictures I was thinking if I add some LED Lights inside the crystal base and some Christmas balls will look awesome!

Thanks Petaloo and Xyron you are a great pairing for my project!!" ~Magda

About Roses Layout, Off to the Races, by Elena Olinevich, product by Graphic45, photo05

"For my layout I used Xyron Creative Station, it’s so useful especially when you use the delicate die cuts , as it’s quite tricky to use an adhesive on all of the small and tiny parts of it. and this tool was a decision how to escape the glue signs. I’ve just put the die cut into it and here you go - you’ve got a perfect adhesive on the backside of it.

 I love using flowers on my projects, and I enjoyed playing with Petaloo flowers on my feminine layout. I’ve made some fussy cutitng flowers from the papers as well adding the fabric flowers." ~Elena

"I have created for you a very big house decorated as a christmas village...i remember when i was a little child my mom always wanted to have long walk in the wood during winter to smell the Christmas atmosphere and there’s where i’ve taken the inspiration from! I put together all the things i love most about this period: glitters, christmas trees, and a lot of wood! This collection of paper is just perfect for any christmas project and it is very very versatile! are you ready to prepare your special christmas presents?" ~Nico Scrap

The Petaloo, Xyron, and Graphic 45 Blog Hop: Holiday Home Decor Day 4

Utensil bottle holder, St Nicholas, Maggi Harding, Graphic 45 (03)

 Day 4 of our Blog Hop and the fun just continues! Maggi Harding and Sandy Trefger share amazing decor ideas using St. Nicholas today! Let's get into the fun!

Giphy

Maggi creates a perfect utensil holder that is perfect for your holiday party or for a handmade gift!

"What a treat to blog hop with Petaloo and Xyron!  I took a 6 pack box and altered it to use for a utensil holder.  Every year I host Christmas at my house and on Christmas Eve we do a big buffet of really yummy junk food and this 6 pack box makes a perfect container to hold the eating utensils and napkins.  " ~Maggi

Petaloo shared with us the most gorgeous collection of flowers that are perfect for all your holiday creations.  I used a little bit of everything they sent on my project so you could see how pretty all these blooms are!  You might not think of using a berry pick with Christmas projects, but I think it looks so pretty nestled in there with the poinsettias.  The glittered snowflakes and star picks just add to the overall festive feel of my project.

Utensil bottle holder, St Nicholas, Maggi Harding, Graphic 45 (03)

I used the Xyron Creative Station Lite to adhere the doilies.  The Creative Station Lite applies adhesive to anything up to 5" wide and 1/8" thick.  It works so well with doilies as they have so many intricate cuts that are difficult to glue.  You just run your doily through the machine (no batteries or electricity required)  and the adhesive bonds perfectly to the paper so you can easily adhere it to your project, without any mess, no oozing glue, I love that!  Since it will take materials up to 1/8" thick, I will definitely be using it to attach chipboard pieces.  I've always had a hard time gluing those detail chippies that have lots of tiny little cut outs, the Creative Station will be the perfect tool to add adhesive to these.

The idea for this project was born last year when my bff told me how much she liked champagne but since she lives alone, it didn't make much sense for her to buy bottles of champagne since it doesn't keep after opening.  Well, I thought to myself, I will get her some champagne splits, but then I needed a fun way to gift it.  Ah ha I thought, upon spying a 6 pack, yep, that would be really cute filled with champagne splits.

She loved it and now she uses it to hold dog toys for her "grand dog" that occasionally visits.  Honest, that is what she told me!

Sandy creates a beautiful decoration for her mantelpiece! Love this idea!

Mantle Tag Box, St Nicholas, By Sandy Trefger, Product by Graphic 45, Product by Xyron, Product by Petaloo, Product by My Creative Spirit, Photo 005

"I have a Santa Claus collection that I display every Christmas on my mantle.  Some are new and some are very vintage and I love them all.  When I saw the fabulous Graphic 45 St Nicholas collection, I knew I wanted to create a decorative piece to add to my mantel for this holiday season.  I decided to create a tag box to hold tags for gifts and for pretty tags received on gifts plus a tiny photo album.  The ATC kit by My Creative Spirit that we received in our first designer supply box was perfect!  I also used Xyron adhesives and some beautiful Petaloo flowers and clusters to really make this an heirloom for my Santa collection. Happy Crafting!" ~ Sandy

Tip:

Follow the instructions on the Petaloo cluster packages and “take apart” the clusters.  Combine different ones together like the pine cones & berries , the snowflakes and the poinsettias.  The Xyron Sticker Maker made it so easy to turn paper fussy cut elements into stickers and easily add them to the mini album inside the tag box.  The Xyron Tape Runner is a great adhesive to use to mat the box with the patterned paper as well as cover all the tags you will make for the holidays.

Kathy's card is so beautiful, you could leave it on display all season long! Let's take a look:

Very Merry Christmas Card Tutorial, Saint Nicholas, by Kathy Clement, Product by Graphic 45, Photo 10

"One of the holiday traditions I love the most is the giving and receiving of Christmas cards.  When I was a girl, my mother used to hang them all around the door frames of our house and I loved to stand and stare at all those lovely images of snowy meadows,  Jolly Santas, mischievous elves, and stately deer.  So I guess it’s natural that I grew up to love the process of creating Christmas cards.

Adding a special fold to a card really takes it to the next level.  This Very Merry Christmas card has a fun gatefold opening with a medallion front and a magnetic closure.  The inside is filled with pockets, tags and all sorts of eye candy to delight the senses and stir the imagination. This type of card is a gift in and of itself.  The inner pockets also provide a wonderful way to deliver a holiday gift card, tickets or cash gift.

It looks like a complicated card, but when you break it down into pieces, as I have in this Snapguide tutorial, it’s just a matter of following each simple step.  Before you know it, you’ve created your very own keepsake style Christmas card.  Let’s get started!" ~Kathy
