Lisa Somerville's Peachy Reindeer Food Holder

We are days away from Christmas, but we still have a few little crafts and gifts to sneak in there. Today Lisa Somerville will show us how to sprinkle some holiday magic to guide all the reindeer to your home! Here is how she used PKS stamps to create a sweet "Reindeer Food" holder:

Week 14

Text for tag
On Christmas Eve, sprinkle this Magic reindeer food on your lawn. The magic glitter sparkling in the moonlight and the smell of oats will guide Rudolph to your home!


eCraft Settings:
Pressure Setting – 5
Tab Density –0
Tab Width – 0
Multi Cut – 0
Blade Cap – on
Card Stock Stabilizer used





Open SCAL software and add Template – resize to fit your stamped images, cut from card stock, assemble reindeer, sponge edges if desired.  Note: it’s best to adhere Adhesive Sheets to card stock before cutting, makes for easier assembly.


Assemble and decorate box.  Add a mixture of Oatmeal and Glitter to test tube.



Cut tags using SCAL – my photos shows both the card stock, and shadow layer tag.  Resize tag, print Text on pattern paper, cut into tag shape with eCraft, using the hinge method.



Assemble tag; add reindeer using dimensionals.

  9. Hello, that's a wonderful blog for everyone, and the site itself is lovely. I enjoy going to the beach, so when I needed to find a task for my best buddy, I contacted my teacher to ask how to do it. and I chose to seek assistance when he informed me about top assignment writing services
