Christmas in July Craft Along Day 5: Fun Fold Card + Gift Box

Welcome to Day 5 of my Christmas in July Craft Along! We’re getting close to the end of the week, and today’s projects are another fun combination of a handmade card and a coordinating gift package. One project features an interactive fun fold, while the other is a beautiful gift box that’s perfect for holiday treats or small gifts.

The first project is a cheerful fun fold Christmas card featuring the Festive Cheer bundle. Both Designer Series Paper collections are showcased, creating a bright and festive layout that’s full of holiday charm. The adorable ornament and pine branch add just the right finishing touch, while the interactive fold makes opening the card even more fun.

The second project is a decorative gift box featuring the Pretty Poinsettia bundle. The Misty Moonlight base is topped with a lid wrapped in the A Stitched Season Designer Series Paper for a classic Christmas look. A layered white poinsettia becomes the focal point, accented with Real Red + White Stitched Ribbon and a heat embossed sentiment on Real Red cardstock for an elegant finishing touch.
