Clear Scraps Project Post

Hey there, it’s Jennifer here on the blog with a festive new project — a Christmas Tag Holder Box and matching Tag Album that’s sure to add a touch of holiday magic to your crafting season!

I started by painting the inside of the box white and the outside a cheerful winter blue. Once the paint was dry, I reached for the gorgeous Graphic 45 Christmas collection and chose a snowflake paper to line the inside. I traced, cut, and adhered it neatly, creating a cozy winter backdrop.

Next came a little texture and shimmer! Using a snowflake stencil, I mixed gel medium and white paint to create a thick, creamy paste and carefully spread it over the stencil. Before it dried, I sprinkled white glitter on top for that frosty sparkle we all love. I added some water to a paper towel and gently wiped the surface down to clean up any white lines. Once everything set, I assembled the box using 3-in-1 glue and decorated the outside with festive embellishments.

Now, onto the Christmas Tag Album! I traced and cut each base tag, adhering patterned paper to both sides. After trimming the edges with my X-Acto knife, I gently inked the edges with dark brown for a vintage touch. (Tip: Don’t forget to punch the hole before gluing the second side!)

Using the same beautiful Graphic 45 Christmas line, I decorated each page with photo frames, journaling cards, tags, and even a fun waterfall element. A few stickers and glittery accents added extra holiday sparkle. To finish, I tied everything together with a bold red ribbon—the perfect festive touch!

Thank you so much for stopping by! I hope this project inspires you to create your own holiday keepsakes full of shimmer, joy, and Christmas cheer. 🎄✨
