This little gift box measures 2″ square. It folds flat as it’s not sealed on the bottom but just tucks in, instead. As it folds flat is stores very easily and you make a few of these for all occasions. The designer series paper is called Paper Blooms. It’s another free item you can earn during sale-a-bration.

Make a Magnetic Closure Christmas Gift Box

Make a Magnetic Closure Christmas Gift Box – Brightly Gleaming – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I’ve used the Brightly Gleaming designer series paper (DSP) here to make these cute little gift boxes. I think the copper foiling really pops against both the Real Red and Melon Mambo pink. These boxes were both made using scraps of DSP from making another gift box which I will feature shortly on this blog.

I used small neodymium earth magnets that I got online for the magnetic closure. I covered both with some DSP so that the magnets were not so strong. The stamp set is Wrapped in Christmas and has some matching dies as well. This sentiment also matches the 1 1/2″ circle punch perfectly as well. I love punches and tend to use them rather than dies whenever I can.

measurements

  • Real Red / Melon Mambo – 8″ X 7 1/2″, Scored on the:
    • 8″ side at 1″, 2″ & 7″
    • 7 1/2″ side at 1/2″, 3″, 4″ & 6 1/2″
  • Brightly Gleaming DSP –
    • 4 3/4″ X 2 1/4″ X 1 piece
    • 4 3/4″ X 3/4″ X 2 pieces
    • 2 1/4″ X 3/4″ X 2 pieces

Coffee Cup Sleeve – Make it Pretty – Stampin’ Up! – Warm Hugs

I love these cute coffee cups. They are so cute. I personally don’t drink coffee as I find it too bitter and I don’t to keep adding sugar to make it passable. I intend to use these as treat holders for bags of chocolates or even candy canes.

And yes, the caddy is also Stampin’ Up! Next time I want to decorate it too and perhaps make the treat holders into candy cane holders now that we no longer have the punch board to make treat holders.

You will need to sacrifice one cup to make a template for the wrap. There are dies to make the sleeves and all the accessories.

  • Heartwarming Hugs – 6″ X 12″
  • Tis The Season – 6″ X 6″

Try This Pretty Gift Box filled with Yummy Chocolates

I’ve not been going out much in the last few months. The other week I ventured out to Poundland. I went early around 8am before anyone was around. I picked up these chocolates and decided to make a little box to give them as little gift.

The paper here is the Peony Garden. It is a quite a pastel set of paper and therefore looks good against a dark background. I think the glittered black ribbon just make this box.

This three tone purple ribbon is lovely. I never used it when it first came out but I’ve changed that now. Do you like it? This box is very easy to make. I made a template and once you have a template you can make as many as you like. You can store them flat and just seal up the base when you want to use them. Here is the template.

Doggy Curvy Keepsake Box – Stampin’ Up!

I’ve this super cute doggy curvy keepsake box. I’ve not used the mini curvy keepsake box much and decided this was the perfect time for it’s revival.

Doggy Curvy Keepsake Box

I love how this has turned out. The little doggie image is from the Playful Pets Designer Series Paper. It matches the Pets dies which not only cut out a cat and dog image from the DSP but of course the matching stamp set. How cool is that!!

Here is the cat version of the box. I am more a cat person that a dog person but do love both. In regards these cute boxes I do prefer how the dog one turned out. Which do you prefer?

Cat Curvy Keepsake Box

The curvy keepsake box is made from half a sheet of A4 cardstock. The colour I’ve used here is real red as it matches the colour in the Playful Pets DSP. These boxes are so dinky and they would be perfect to hold a little gift. I was thinking of a little dog or cat charm to add to a charm bracelet for a special someone.

Flower Box – Cute little Birthday Gift Box

Hello again, I’m back with this cute little gift box to share with you. I love the Flowers for Every Season designer series paper (DSP). It is so pretty on this cute little flower box. I’ve already bought two packs of it!!

Flower Box - Cute little Birthday Gift Box
Flower Box – Cute little Birthday Gift Box

The overriding colour here is Misty Moonlight. It is one of the new 20-22 in-colours and fast becoming a personal favourite. These boxes are super easy to make. It is my mother’s birthday next week and I think I will be using them to put a few little gifts in. We can’t go out to eat as both of us are considered clinical vulnerable and to be honest, are too scared to go to a restaurant. I want to make the day special through some handmade items though.

measurements

  • Misty Moonlight – 6 7/16″ x 6 7/16″ score at 1 1/2″ on each side
  • Flowers for Every Season – 6″ X 6″, score at 1 1/4″ on each side

I love working with this DSP and I’m so glad that I have the whole next year to make projects with it. I really want to start on my mini album using this paper. It will be to show off all the beautiful photos of the flowers in our own garden and those I see in surrounding villages on my travels.

Thank you for visiting and I hope you enjoyed this project. I would love to see your creations as well. As always there is a video tutorial and supply list below. Until next time, Keep Being Creative!!

Poppy Birthday Box – Peaceful Poppies

This poppy birthday box is a coordinating piece to the birthday card I posted below. I’ve used different patterns from the Peaceful Poppies designer series paper (DSP) to make this box. I think it turned out super cute. What do you think?

Poppy Birthday Box - Peaceful Poppies
Poppy Birthday Box – Peaceful Poppies

I especially love the pattern above with the red poppies against the blue background. It is so pretty. I’ve always thought blue and red go very well together.

The sentiment used here is the same as the card I posted on Wednesday. The stamp set is Peaceful Moments and has some great sentiments. I’ve used the circle punches so that you need no dies to make this box.

measurements

  • Poppy Parade – 8″ X 8″ scored at 2″ on all sides
  • Peaceful Poppies DSP – 7 1/16″ X 7 1/16″ scored at 1 1/2″ on all sides

I’ve made this box before using the Magnolia Lane DSP and Mossy Meadow cardstock last year and thought I would make it again. It is a very simple and easy box to make and can be made in bulk easily. I also must say I love the Poppy Parade textured weave ribbon. I have a few reels of it and just have not been using it so I want to change that too.
