The First Challenge for the New Year

It's already 2019 in New Zealand - Happy New Year. I hope all of your dreams (and mine) come true this year.

For Christmas I gave my boss a bottle of wine and I wanted to jazz it up a little.  I created a simple card/cover for it. I basically used scraps to make it and it turned out quite sweet.  My boss can reuse the label for any bottle of wine that she gives during the holiday season.

Here's a close up

SSS Wrap It Up

It's the time of year for gift giving so I've been making some pouches to fill with chocolates for small gifts.  I pulled out some DCWV christmas paper because I couldn't find my Bazill Basics red paper pad - time for a clean up in the craft space maybe?  I used the WRMK pillow box punch board to make the pouches.  I finished the pouches off with some Stampin' Up! silver twine and tags cut with a old Sizzix steel rule die (that's how old it is!). 

The latest challenge at Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge is - Wrap It Up .  These pouches fit the bill perfectly.  I'm off to eat the left over chocolate now.....

Materials:
Paper - DCWV
Twine - Stampin' Up!
