Magical Holiday Moments with SEI

Happy New Year to you! I have an SEI holiday project to share with you today featuring the Glimmering Boughs collection.

Last year we took the family to a pioneer village for their holiday event which was such a great experience for the boys. There was a wooden sleigh that I took some photos of the kids in and of course the youngest was being silly so I captured some of those photos as well.

 

I started my page with the "All That Glitters" cream sheet, trimmed to 11x11 so I could layer it on top of the 12x12 "Cranberry Punch" sheet. The "All That Glitters" sheet has a beautiful embossed design that is very elegant.

 

 

Next, I selected a few borders from the Glimmering Boughs Border pack and you will see one at the top of the page and another in the design. I used a border punch to create my green layer, then selected the floral elements to build a flower. First, I pressure embossed the foiled red paper layers of my flower to add a bit of interest.

 

 

You will see several of the Stickers here as well as gems and a small doily from the coordinating Sundries pack.

Gift Packaging with SEI

Greetings and a happy Christmas Eve day to you! 

I was recently up on the SEI Blog to share a gift packaging idea. I used a cute Corrugated Pillow Box and decorated it with Borders and Sundries from the Glimmering Boughs collection along with one of the papers.

Have you seen these Corrugated Pillow Boxes? They are adorable and very sturdy in design, something that a mom of young boys completely appreciates! (Think toy cars or smallish gifts that you really want to limit the peeking factor on!)

 

To add a bit of holiday pizazz, I selected a few borders from the Glimmering Boughs Border pack and adhered them by wrapping around to the back. On top of that I added a pretty kraft foiled doily from the Sundries Pack.

 

The crowning glory is the poinsettia flower that I created and placed on top of the doily. In the center is one of the pretty buttons that is included in the Sundries pack as well. I added some holly greens and flourish using my die cutting machine and "Evergreen Branches" paper .

 

The Glimmering Boughs collection has such pretty elements with elegant finishes and designs.
