Hello creative friends!
I know it may seem early, but I’m starting to prepare some little gifts for Christmas. December is always a fabulous and hectic month for me; I enjoy decorating the house, attending events, doing my December Daily, binge-watching Christmas movies, and spending time with family. Then comes the week of December 25th, and I still have to think about gifts for colleagues and friends. So for a couple of years now, I’ve been planning ahead (usually in September) and then enjoying the season!

This year, I’m making these 3D stars for my colleagues. I’ll put some chocolates inside, and before delivery, I’ll add a ribbon and the initial of their name so they can hang on the Christmas tree or use as a place card.

You can also use it as an idea for an Advent calendar using the numbers from the same collection or simply to decorate the Christmas tree.

To make the stars, I used a 12×12 paper pad, which is super convenient because you get two papers of the same design! I assembled them, leaving one side open to fill them, and then I went wild with the embellishments!

I chose to always use a main element and small touches such as writing or embellishments in acetate and vellum in addition to die-cuts and laser cuts of course.


I don’t want to go into too much detail, but my advice is: fill the table with decorations and have fun!
