Papertrey Ink: Fairy Tale Christmas Make it Market Kit



Hi there! I am thrilled to be joining Papertrey Ink to help showcase the new Fairy Tale Christmas Make it Market kit by Betsy Veldman! The Papertrey Ink Christmas kits have been one of the big holiday highlights of my year from the very first one Betsy came out with. They are packed with some of the most beautiful stamps, dies, papers, stencils and accessories that you will find. Everything is coordinated to work together to create beautiful projects for your holiday season. This kit will be available October 1st at 10:00 EST!




So the kit comes with beautiful stamps and coordinating dies, and also preprinted papers that you can cut out with the same dies. My first project here uses only the stamps and dies. I did some ink blending with Pure Poppy ink  behind the die cut to make the detail stand out




I love stamping the little clusters in different colors to match the card that I'm working on! Everything here was adhered to my card front with foam tape.

This is another project that was completed using only the stamps and dies.  The little book front is made to fit onto the matchbox die that came with an earlier Make it Market Christmas kit called All Through the House. I used that matchbox die to create the box and then decorated it with the stamps and dies. 


I used the MISTI stamping tool to create an ombre look with my inks on the border. I also did some ink blending  to add some color behind the die cut to enhance the detail. Again I stamped the pretty clusters in matching colors.

Again I used just the stamps and coordinating dies for this card. I created a snowy hill background by blending some Hawaiian Shores dye ink, and the little girl was stamped and colored in with Copic markers. All of the elements were added with foam tape for dimension.

This adorable little box was created with the preprinted papers. Although I love stamping and die cutting, these papers really do speed up the process of creating several projects at once. And they are so pretty! I used the matchbox template to cut out the box, then cut out the cover from the preprinted papers and wrapped it around.



 I added the die cut sentiment and the little snowflake with foam tape, then glued the little wrap around piece and the latch with liquid glue. The box just slides in and out. So sweet! Just love this!

Again this card was made with only the preprinted papers and the little house scene die. Super fast and easy especially for a shaker card! The kit comes with all the supplies to create the little shakers, even the snow!

And last but not least are these adorable little tags also made with the preprinted papers. So quick and easy and just so cute! There are two layers here, so you can actually open the little book cover and add your to and from on the inside. 




For each one, I used different little elements from the preprinted papers to decorate the covers. I also added the green velvet ribbon to the top corners to attach them to gifts. 

Okay that is it from me! I had a wonderful time working with this kit! I hope you enjoy my projects!

The kit will be available on October 1st at 10:00 PM EST at Papertrey Ink

  8. Thank you for showing so many ways to use the kit just by stamping cards. Each one was beautiful. I love the way you made the box to slide in and out without having to open the latch to see inside. And the tags are adorable. Great job!

  18. HI Kay! Your projects are just gorgeous and I was glad to see you back at the PTI site. I have to tell you I resisted this kit until your sweet card with the girl on the mostly white card base pushed me over the edge! I knew ti was your card before I saw the name, lol!
