You’re gonna love this cute spring seed packet gift you can put together in just minutes! Try it with seed packets like I did…or tea bags…or flat chocolate bars…or…
You get the idea. It’s a super way to dress up just about anything flat!
I wonder, is spring in the air in your neck of the woods? It might be wishful thinking on my part, but I hear teensy tiny whispers of it here in Alberta. (Well at least I did when I was typing this in early February. Now it’s -25 Celsius and we’ve had a fresh dump of snow! 🙄)
Regardless of the weather, fresh spring colours are always perfect for smile making!
Do you agree?
Add a shot of spring into a friend’s life with this cute design!
You can see two versions of this idea I shared in my YouTube Live the other day. I also shared the original idea made by my friend Janine so you can see where the idea came from!
Made Ya Smile!
I dare you NOT to smile when you see these sweet gnomes!!
Use them for Valentines or friend cards, anniversary and love designs, birthdays, spring greetings and more! I think they’re a super versatile find and you’ll get tons of use out of them.
Plus, there’s just something a bit special about gnomes, isn’t there?
These cuties coordinate with the Kindest Gnomes stamps and Gnomes Dies you can see in this post about ways to step up a make it in minutes cards with gnomes!
And while the Kindest Gnomes stamps are now retired and not available for purchase, as of today, you can still pick up the Gnomes Dies which easily cut out the little gnome I used on this seed packet. And they’re not just for the stamps! You’ll love my Giggle Gnomes bag I made for Christmas!
The patterned paper I used in today’s design is a free item from Sale-a-Bration, the Day on the Farm.
Ooops! I have to say, this wasn’t one of my favourites – at first! But now I’ve started to play with it, I love the fresh spring colours and the variety of designs included! My fave is the page of veggies!
Cute Spring Seed Packet Gift
Even though this packet is super easy, there is a trick to the ribbon.
So be sure to click the triangle to see how you can make one now!
Let’s see a close up of our gnome. I used a variety of Stampin’ Blends to colour him in: Balmy Blue, Smoky Slate, Parakeet party, Melon Mambo, Night of Navy and Petal Pink to name a few.
I love the shadowing you can get with the Stampin’ Blends. Plus the colours are so vibrant. I don’t know how we ever coloured without them!
Time to Give One a Try!
It’s time to pull out some designer series paper and make up a cute packet today!
