Do you love project kits? If so, you’re going to love the Christmas Countdown Project Kit by Stampin’ Up! This Christmas craft kit let’s you create your own hand-crafted advent décor. You can fill the boxes with small gifts, and let the countdown begin! The kit includes enough supplies to create 25 mini boxes and has a sturdy outer box to hold them all. The Christmas Countdown Stamp Set is used to complete the holiday themed project and is sold separately. The project colors includes Cherry Cobbler, Early Espresso, Mossy Meadow, Whisper White with Gold Foil to add some shine! Be sure to watch the short video below as Natalie showcases the project kit.
But wait! Though the project kit is called Christmas Countdown, it’s not just for Christmas.
Isn’t it a great idea for storing embellishments? In my craft room, numerous methods have been tried for embellishment storage. Yet, the system currently in use still does not allow me to see purchased embellishments. You know the saying – out of sight, out of mind! Which means embellishments are forgotten and thus not used enough. Therefore, I my recent order includes an extra Christmas Countdown Project Kit to use for embellishment storage. I look forward to it arriving and will share the finished project in a future blog.
Other uses include decorating the reverse side of the boxes for other holiday themes such as Easter is Coming. Or perhaps, use as a Birthday Countdown. What other uses can you think of?

Hope you had a wonderful Easter. This year, it was a quiet Easter for my husband and me so I was able to spend part of the afternoon in my craft cave. Since I could not spend endless hours crafting, I decided to make the Incredible Like You Project Kit. That’s the beauty of using a kit, they are great when you want to make projects fast. This kit is on the Last Chance product list and is available until June 3 or while supplies last. In my opinion, the photos in the Occasions Catalog do not do the cards justice. The cards are beautiful! The laser-cut overlays add a touch of elegance. The kit contains the materials to make 16 cards (four of each design). The project kit coordinates with the Incredible Like You Stamp Set. The sentiments in the stamp set are a couple of my favorites. However, it’s easy to substitute the sentiments and use your favorite stamp sets sentiments. Additional products you may need to complete the kit per the kit instructions are Coastal Cabana and Lovely Lipstick Classic Stampin’ Pads and Multipurpose Glue. Below the photos are a few added tips for assembly.
Here are a few alternative sentiments used. Plus, check out the lined envelope that is in the kit.
What’s even better, is the kit contains a reusable storage envelope.
Assembly Tips:
Separate each of the card designs and the card elements into individual stacks
Select sentiments and stamp onto the appropriate size labels
Use the Take Your Pick for removing the glue dots included with the kit (or use your own mini glue dots).
To attach the laser-cut overlays, use small dots of multipurpose adhesive glue along the overlay edges. Remember, a little of the glue goes a long way!
The project kit contains assembly instructions. Also refer to the Stampin’ Up! You Tube video to watch Tanner assemble the kit.
It was great to be able to make 16 cards quickly. They are now in the reusable storage envelope ready for use.
Remember to order your kit before it’s no longer available!
We have some more products that are selling out fast at Stampin’ Up!. They are so popular and Stampin’ Up! just did not expect the volume of orders they have received. The Lovely Lipstick and Grapefruit Grove foil sheets and Precious Parcel card kit are going fast. They are still available but I fear not for long. These products are going so fast that they may not be available through the entire Sale-A-Bration period.
