Death of a paper line / Birth of a whole lot of Christmas cards

Following  the shiny example of one of my Shopping Our Stash team-ies - Deena, I decided to kill an old paper line = use it all up. I had this scrapbooking kit from Me & My Big Ideas called Noel for couple years, used bits from it here and there, but couldn't get rid of it all. It had not only papers, but also chipboard flourishes and stickers. So here is what I made:
I started with the square card on the left, then made couple of A2 cards... pile of paper didn't seem to get any smaller. So I altered a small spiral notebook. Great for Christmas notes or maybe shopping lists.. made a little pocket on the inside for receipts.

Then I made more cards and decided to make them into a gift set

 - a gift set needs a box, so I made a pretty spacious one (fits about 10 A2 cards)

for most of the cards I only used the elements from the set, but then I ran out and had to stamp :) here is one with my never before used SU stamp:

I use the new style Cherry Cobbler ink pad  and have to say it covers the solid stamps almost as good as craft ink.
And that's the end of the paper line....

Challenges:

Clear It Out - Christmas  - old papers and also hoarded SU felt snowflakes.
