How to Make a Matchbox Style Treat Box – Hand-Penned – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK

I recently went to Poundland, the first time in ages and I saw these cute little love hearts. They are a perfect little treat in this simple matchbox style treat box. The designer series paper is the pretty Hand-Penned paper. It has a light, watercolour and sketch feel to it. Perfect for a variety of occasions. These treat boxes would be so cute as table or party favours. In my day we would have them in our goodie bags at children’s parties. I believe someone people call them loot bags. I hate that terminology. It sounds so vulgar.

Measurements

  • Misty Moonlight Cardstock – 4 1/2″ X 3 3/4″, scored at 1″ on each side
  • Hand-Penned designer series paper (DSP) – 6″ X 2″

How to Make a Curved Top Gift Box – Choco Treat – A Wish for Everybody – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I was struggling to find an idea for a little gift box so I turned to good old Pinterest. I found an idea for box like this with a curved lid but boy oh boy did I struggle with what paper, what size I wanted it to be. In the end it turned out cute and it easy to make.

The lovely designer series paper (DSP) is “Well Suited” from the mini catalogue. I love this bright Poppy Parade red and it contrasts so well with the Night of Navy in the cardstock and little flowers. The paper flowers are made using the Small Blooms punch and mimic the little flowers in the DSP.

measurements

  • Night of Navy Cardstock – 6″ X 4 1/2″ scored at 1 1/2″ on each side.
  • Well Suited DSP – 6 1/4″ X 3″ scored at 1/2″ at either end of the long side.
  • Night of Navy cardstock 3″ x 1 1/2″

Make a Wallet / Holder for Tic Tacs – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

This little treat holder is super easy to make and ever so cute!! It holds the larger size of tic tac boxes and would be a perfect table favour. Normally I would tell people not to eat sweets or chocolates found in my craft room as they are usually years old. These are new actually. I personally only eat sweets or chocolate when I am having an episode of low blood glucose, called hypoglycemia. This happens occasionally as a Type 1 Diabetic.

measurements

  • Purple Posy Cardstock 5 1/2″ X 4″ scored at 2 1/4″ on each side of the long side.

I’ve made this style of box many times. It is a pizza style box with the lid and sides that fold over. Very simple and easy to make. Misty Moonlight is the blue colour and what a blue!! It is not too light and not dark like Night of Navy, just the perfect mix. The ribbon of course matches and it a beautifully soft cotton ribbon that makes a bow even for those of us that are bow challenged!!

This is a really good size box that would be useful not only as a gift box but also as a storage box. The paper is gorgeous isn’t? It is the Flower & Field designer series paper which is a freebie I got during Sale-a-bration. There is very little wastage with this box as the belly band is made using the left over cardstock from making the base.

This is a lovely rectangle gift box that has a magnetic closure. It would be perfect to hold a piece of jewellery. Rococo Rose is one of the in-colours that is retiring later this year. I have quite a bit of cardstock and patterned paper in this colour and want to start to use it up, hence this box.

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.
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

The designer series paper (DSP) is Brightly Gleaming. It is simply gorgeous with copper foiling. This DSP carried over from last Christmas and I am happy I can share it with you again. This is a great size box. It measures 4″ X 4″ which is a lovely size. You could use it for all sorts of Christmas treats eg. fudge, cookies or Christmas tags.

The stamp set Wrapped in Christmas. I love the font. It is so elegant and matches beautifully with the DSP. The sheer red ribbon it gorgeous and still allows you to see the DSP underneath.
