I’m happy with how this box turned out. It’s sweet and cute. I was searching Pinterest for inspiration and found this Halloween treat box. I adapted it to make this cute gift box/bag.

Isn’t this picnic basket cute? I’ve made it a few times before. Today, I decided to make it into an Easter Basket. It features the Floral Delight designer series paper (DSP). This paper is bright floral and happy. Perfect for Easter.

The basket has a flap on either end, the centre is secured to the base. It is easy to make. I would advise you to create a template of the box such as the one below to help you understand how it fits together.

I enjoy making little gift boxes and bags. They are bespoke and a wonderful way to make a gift extra special. This box is pizza style box. I haven’t made one for a while so I thought I would revisit it with you today. The paper is the Perennial Lavender designer series paper (DSP) and matches the lavender card I shared a few days ago.

I love to make little candy cane holders or pouches. I make them every year. Here is my offering this year. They are easy to make and hold one candy cane, though they could hold more.

They are great for using up scrap pieces of patterned paper which we all have. The snowflakes are the One of a Kind dies and I cut them from the Festive Glimmer Designer Series Paper (DSP).

I’ve used the Take A Bow die to make the embellishment for the lid. You can find the full tutorial to make this bow in the previous blog post and on my YouTube channel.

If you are like me, when I saw a die that made bows I had to have it. As a person who can’t make a bow to save my life, I knew a die that would do it for me was for me. I received the die set. I opened it and stared at and stared at it some more. How was I meant to make a bow from this? I went to YouTube and watched a few tutorials and this is my way to use it.

6″X 6″ paper works perfectly for this die. I used the matching Take a Bow designer series paper (DSP). you need two sheets to make each bow. You need two of everything except the smallest strip. Watch the video below to see the full tutorial.

How to Make a Cute Pen Pouch / Stocking Filler – Greetings of the Season – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – UK

I think this is a great idea for a stocking filler. This bag/pouch is easy to make and fits at least two pens. I’ve used some pretty Christmas-themed ones I found online. You can use paper or cardstock to make these but I prefer paper. One thing I should mention is to be careful when scoring the paper. Use the fatter end of the scoring stylus or a lighter hand on the trimmer. You don’t want to cut through your paper.

Measurements

  • Snowy Scenes designer series paper (DSP) – 8″ X 4 1/2″ scored on the short side at 2″ & 4″ and 1″ & 3″ up to the score line. On the long side score at 1″ only.

I love this little tent box. It is easy to make and I am happy with how it turned out. There is no stamping here. I’ve used our ephemera packs to decorate and embellish it. A top tip is if you are making any bag or box for the first time, make a template using cheap cardstock. You can practice building the box or bag and make any mistakes before ruining your pretty paper. You can find a template for this box below the measurements.
