pillow box and a cute envelope. :)

Hi.

It has been a busy weekend for me. Lots of friends around the house, we had a wonderful time with 16 people making gingerbread cookies around our table, and eating traditional norwegian christmas food together, laughing, talking and having the best 1st weekend in advent together.

:)

I also had a demo at my local scrapbook store in Oslo, Steffens AS.

I made alot of different things, and I will share them during this week.

Lots of nice ladies showed up at the demo, and I had so much fun showing things to create with 3ndypapir christmas collection 2010, and the new collage-sheets I recently put together for Steffens.

I thought this little pillow-box and the cute envelope with room for a greeting and a gift card would be a nice thing to share here at "home for christmas".

I love simple, but cute templates for christmas.

These are fast and easy to make, and you can use what ever paper and embellishments you like.

I have used patterned paper by 3ndypapir, "hilsen gudrun" christmas-collection.

download the template by just right-click on the image and save.

(if it doesen't work, please let me know, and I'll upload it to 4shared, and leave a link instead. ;) )

Here is the gift-envelope with room for a greeting and a gift-card inside.

I love this simple, but yet so super cute envelope.

** edit: I usually print my templates on simple printer-paper. Cut around the edges. Then I put the template on the back side of the patterned paper I want to use. I trace around the template with my pencil, and then I use a ball point pen ( kulepenn ) to trace along all the dotted lines, to make them fold easily. **

Thanks for stopping by, and have a great evening.

:)
