I’m so excited to share my holiday blog hop projects with you today. If you love giving handmade gifts (or want to try for the first time), these festive gift sets are perfect! Using the Stampin’ Up! Take a Bow Bundle, I created two coordinating gift sets that are simple yet stunning. Let’s dive in!

Gift Set 1: Pizza Box & Coordinating Gift Card Holder

The first project is a charming handmade gift box styled like a pizza box. This little box is ideal for holding small gifts like jewelry, candy, or other stocking stuffers. I used the red and white striped paper from the Take a Bow Paper Pack for the base, giving it a cheerful holiday vibe.

To top it off, I created a festive bow using one of the green patterned papers and the Take a Bow Dies. It’s such a fun way to add a dimensional touch! This project also includes a coordinating gift card holder, so your gift-giving is as stylish as it is thoughtful.

Gift Set 2: Gift Bag & Gift Card Holder

For my second set, I designed a custom gift bag using the Stampin’ Up! Gift Bags Combo. It’s just the right size for larger goodies or multiple smaller items.

To match the bag, I made a coordinating gift card holder, because who doesn’t love receiving a little something extra?

Here’s a handy tip: I didn’t have ribbon in the perfect shade for this project, so I used Old Olive Stampin’ Blends Markers to color white ribbon. It’s an easy way to get a perfect color match for your projects!
