Apple Curvy Keepsake Boxes

Hi all!   I have been super busy with the kids yearbook, subbing for school and just life in general but happy to be back in the craft room!    It is Staff Appreciation week and I am honored to make these Paper Apple Boxes for the Staff at the boys school (made 100 of them).   :)     They are being filled with Hershey Kiss for their "sweet treat day".    I hope they like them!

Valentine Matchbook Treat Holders

I saw this idea on Pinterest -- posted by "thestampdoc" and HAD to make them.   They were extremely easy to make and hold just enough candy to give out to friends.   Made about 60 of these for my boys to hand out at school and neighborhood friends for Valentine's.   

I did pull out my Retired Designer Series Paper for this project, but no one but you will know. . . LOL!!  

Here is the video that she made so you have the dimensions/instructions.   Enjoy!!!

Happy Halloween Pumpkin Curvy Keepsake Box

There have been so many amazing ideas when using the New Curvy Keepsake Box Thinlit Die from Stampin Up!    I knew I was going to make a cute Halloween box in my September classes but wasn't quiet sure what I was going to make. . . . . thanks to many creative demonstrators, I decided to make my own version of a Pumpkin.    I hope you like it!   

The Curvy Keepsake Box Thinlit Die is super easy to use and the box is simple to put together.   I actually couldn't stop making other Halloween and Christmas themed boxes (pictures to come shortly).     This thinlit die is completely worth the $33 price tag -- Not only do you get the thinlit to make the box (need to cut 2), but you also get three (3) cute little tag thinlits that are perfect size for the box.  

The Happy Halloween words came from the Good Greetings stamp set.   This is a Hostess Exclusive stamp set.    Now through October 31, 2014 you can earn the set FREE with $300 in class sales and/or personal order.   This set is so versatile and covers Holidays from Halloween to Valentine's Day.

Envelope Punch Board Easter Box

Good Morning All!    I saw this video on YouTube for an Envelope Punch Board Box and knew I had to try my hand at it.   This sample is for my March Classes -- thought a cute Easter Box/Basket would be perfect.    This little box is perfect for a few little treats -- mini Hershey bars or Hershey Kisses.   They also only take a 6x6 sheet of cardstock or Designer Series Paper (DSP) so you can make a lot in a short period of time!  

Envelope Punch Board #133774 $19.95

I love the new Spiral Flower Originals Die in the Occasional Catalog.   It is a great addition to any 3D project or cards (can be a tight fit in the envelope so "distress" the flower so it is more flexible).  

Hope you like my project!

Gingham Garden Pop Up Box Card

Here is another amazing tutorial card from SplitcoastStampers; it's call the Pop Up Card Box.   The card looks complicated to make, but I would recommend watching the tutorial video a few times as well as printing out the instructions.   My card came together pretty easily thanks to my Stampin Trimmer.   This card does fold flat for mailing but is larger than the standard A2 size, so you will need a larger envelope, but again Stampin Up! has the solution with our Envelope Punch Board.   

I look forward to making more of these awesome Pop Up Box Cardsd -- My club members will be making my project at this month's gathering.  

 Folds Flat for Mailing!  Make an envelope with the Envelope Punch Board!

Gift Bow Die Present Card

I just LOVE the Gift Bow Bigz L Die that is in the Holiday Catalog (good through January 2, 2014).  I am not sure why I haven't played with it before now, but better late than never right?!!?? LOL  

Here is my Gift/Present Bow Card for my December Classes.   It is a simple card, but I love the overall look.    I also have a sample of a 3D Angel that was made using the Gift Bow Die as well.  I would LOVE to claim this as my idea, but i cased the Angel from Fancy for Stampin Blog.   

Enjoy my Cards and the 3D Project!

Creative Elements Lantern

At Convention this year a fellow Demonstrator (can't find my notes with her name) shared some instructions on how to make this Beautiful Lantern with my Sister and I.   I almost forgot about this when trying to figure out what special project my Monthly Club was going to make this month.  

It was easier to create than I thought it would be, that is ALWAYS a welcome surprise.   I can see so many possibilities with this project -- what are your ideas?  Please feel free to leave a comment. 

  Hope you enjoy the Lantern Project!!  :)

Halloween Happiness - MOJO310

Halloween will be here before we know it.   I personally do not send Halloween cards, but I do like to make 3D items for my kids friends/classmates.  I love the Halloween Happiness stamp and it works perfectly for the Treat Bag Topper.  

Working on my samples for my classes this weekend and decided to incorporate a Sketch Challenge into the mix.   My Classes will be making the Treat Bag using the Stampin Up! Clear Envelopes, but made a card for the Sketch Challenge posted on Mojo Monday Blog.
