DIY Gift Bags with Stampin’ Up! Designer Series Paper
Last week’s Facebook Live felt a bit like stepping into Santa’s workshop, only with prettier paper and far less noise! I shared two easy, charming DIY gift bags that you can create with your favorite Stampin’ Up! Designer Series Paper. These little packages are perfect for holiday gifting and come together faster than a peppermint stick melts in hot cocoa.
Whether you need a petite bag for a sweet treat (I used tea bags) or a tall pouch for a cozy drink mix, these projects make gifting feel extra thoughtful. The Designer Series Paper really shines here, turning simple measurements into something festive and polished.

The Small Gift Bag
Perfect for:
• Tea bags
• Chocolate squares
• Sugar packets
• Small favors or stocking stuffers
Paper Needed:
Four pieces measuring 4 x 6
Scoring:
• Score each piece 1/2 inch on both short sides
• Score 3 inches on the long side
Once you fold and assemble the panels, the paper forms an adorable, sturdy little bag. Add your ribbon, tags, or embellishments, and it’s ready to gift. These are delightful for holiday place settings or quick neighbor treats.
The Large Hot Chocolate Pouch
Perfect for:
• A packet of hot cocoa
• Gourmet drink mixes
• Flat treats or small gifts
Paper Needed:
One piece measuring 4 1/2 x 12
Scoring:
• Score 1/2 inch on each short side
• Score the long side at 6 inches
This creates a tall, sleek pouch that looks incredibly polished with a bit of ribbon at the top. I used coordinating Designer Series Paper and embellishments to tie everything together, and it made the project feel ready for a holiday market booth.

Handmade Christmas Ornament – Modern Christmas Suite Collection
This week on my Facebook Live, I shared a super fun and festive project that I couldn’t wait to post here—a handmade Christmas ornament created with the Modern Christmas Suite Collection from Stampin’ Up! Isn’t it gorgeous hanging on the tree?
This ornament comes together with just a few key pieces, and the star of the show is definitely the shaker dome! I filled it with iridescent sequins for a sparkling, snow-globe effect that catches the lights on the tree beautifully. The bold black, white, and gold designer paper from the suite gives it a modern, fresh look while still feeling classic Christmas.
To finish it off, I framed the ornament with one of our metal hoops and added a simple twine hanger. It’s an easy project—and such a fun one! These would make beautiful gifts, package toppers, or even a whole set of handcrafted ornaments for your own tree.
