Yesterday I shared with you a fun Christmas Cracker and I promised you a video. I think you’ll like what I did with the video because I am going to show you how to create (2) of them from a singe 8 1/2″ x 11″ piece of cardstock and a 6″ x 6″ piece of Designer Series Paper.
These fun Christmas Crackers are perfect stocking stuffers or fun gifts for co-workers or teachers. Just some simple scoring and punching and BOOM, stocking stuffers DONE! Sound good?
Let’s get going with the video then….
If you are unable to view the video, CLICK HERE to view it online.
Here are the measurements in case you missed them:
- 8 ½” x 11″ Crumb Cake cardstock – Along the 8 ½” side score at 1″, 1 ½”, 2″ – rotate and repeat on the other side.
Along the 11″ side score at 1 ¼”, 2 ½”, 3 ¾” and 5″ – – rotate and repeat on the other side. - 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper – Cut to 4 ⅛” x 6″ – cut into 4 ⅛” x ⅞” strips. Cut the remaining piece down to 4 ⅛” x ⅞” – you will have 8 pieces.
- 40″ Cherry Cobbler Thick Bakers Twine – cut (2) 10″
Here’s a list of the supplies I used but get creative with what you already have. Need some in particular? Click a pic to order!

Ha Ha! My Mom did an apple and an orange too! But she hung our stockings on the ends of our beds. We could eat the apple and orange for breakfast as we also played with the coloring book and crayons that were in there, or read the comic book that was in there!
Lol Connie! I always had an apple and an orange in my stocking growing up too. My husband only had the orange though so he missed out…This is absolutely perfect and I love it. Thanks again for yet another great idea!!!!
