Hello and welcome to the Joy of Sets blog hop where our theme is ‘Christmas in July’. You can never start too early when making your Christmas cards and for the hop I have chosen to use the lovely Peaceful Boughs stamp set and Beautiful Boughs Dies to make my card.
To recreate the Christmas in July card you will need;
Gorgeous Grape card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – Rounded lower left corner Shaded Spruce – 5½” by 3¾” – Rounded lower left corner Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” x 2 – Rounded lower left corner Whisper White 4” by 3” Scrap Gold Foil

I then stamped both the bough images across the top of the Whisper White panel and the oval in Shaded Spruce ink.
The oval was then removed and the boughs were stamped down the sides of the panel. I randomly added the dotty stamp in Pool Party ink.

Here is a sweet little fold over top gift bag made using the Ornate Garden Designer Series Paper (dsp). You can fit 2 Fererro Roche chocolates in the bag……..yum. This sweet little box is so easy to make and such a handy size. This was made for the Hopping Around the World blog hop where the theme is 3D. If you have hopped over from Rachel Macleod I am sure you loved her project. You are currently visiting Mo Rootes in the UK.
To recreate the Fold Over Top Gift bag you will need:
Ornate Garden dsp – 8½” by 6”
Scrap Whisper White
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Ornate Garden dsp used for a fold over top gift bag for a blog hop challenge
I began by using my Simply Scored Scoring Tool to score the Ornate Garden dsp. The long side was scored at 2”, 4”, 6” and 8” and the short side at 1¾” & 5”.
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Ornate Garden dsp used for a fold over top gift bag for a blog hop challenge
Using Scissors I cut off the top and bottom small rectangles leaving the central tab. Then I cut up each of the 1¾” rectangles to form tabs for the bottom of the box. The 1” strip of dsp was trimmed off except the last rectangle next to the narrow tab.
www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – Ornate Garden dsp used for a fold over top gift bag for a blog hop challenge
The score lines were then folded and burnished. Tear and Tape was then added to the thin side tab and the box was closed. I folded three of the bottom tabs in and added Tear and Tape to the fourth before folding it down and sealing the bottom closed.

The back and front of the bag were then pinched together and the 1” strip folded over to form the closure.
