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!!

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

Other projects

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!!

Maltesers Box – From My Heart – Stampin’ Up!

This box turns a simple box of Maltesers into something special. It is very easy to make and the paper does all the talking.

Malteser Box - From My Heart - Stampin' Up! — Maltesers Box – From My Heart – Stampin’ Up!

As I said this is a great way to jazz up a box of Maltesers. I’ve used the From My Heart Designer Series Paper (DSP). It is a great paper for Valentines’Day but also for any occasion when you want to celebrate someone. I love the foiling on each sheet which adds a touch of luxury.

The box is made in the style of a pizza box from one sheet of 12″ x 12″ paper. This includes the belly band. I would love to send this to an old school friend of mine in Sydney but I don’t think it would hold up in the post so I will have to send it via this blog.

measurements

From My Heart DSP – 11 1/2″ x 8 3/4″ Scored at:
- 1 1/2″, 5″, 61/2, 10″ on the 11 1/2 side
- 1 1/2″ and 7 1/4″ on 8 3/4″ side.
From My Heart DSP – 11 1/2 x 3 1/4″ – This is the leftover from cutting the above piece.

Golden Honey Bee Box – Stampin’ Up!

I have this gorgeous little side opening gift box to share with you today. This uses the Golden Honey Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the Sale-a-bration catalogue.

This paper is gorgeous. It is black and white with gold foiling on one side. It is very elegant. The black and white side is perfect for male cards. This paper coordinates with Honey Bee Bundle in the new catalogue.

This box is a cute side opening box. The sentiment is simple and I heat embossed it with gold embossing powder to match the paper. It is punched out using the Label Me Fancy punch which actually can punch not just the shape but also the hole for the twine.

Measurements

Golden Honey DSP – 7″ X 8 1/2″
- Scored on 8 1/2″ side at 1″, 4″, 5″, 8″
- Scored on 7″ side at 1″, 2″, 6″

This box can be stored flat if you don’t seal the base and therefore take up little storage space. I’ve used two different patterns here. Which one do you prefer?

Large Gift Box Tutorial – Brightly Gleaming

I have this gorgeous large gift box to share with you today. This uses the Brightly Gleaming Speciality Designer Series Paper (DSP). This is a very good size box, perfect to house a present for a special someone.

The Brightly Gleaming DSP is gorgeous. One side of each sheet has copper foiling. I have used two different designs here to give you options when making this box. This box measures 6″ X 4″ X 2″. This paper is part of the Brightly Gleaming suite of products that includes the Christmas Gleaming stamp set and two ornament punches.

Large Gift Box Tutorial - Brightly Gleaming - Ornament paper — Large Gift Box Tutorial – Brightly Gleaming – Ornament paper

The bauble and sentiment have been heat embossed with copper embossing powder to match the paper and copper foil sheet. I love the way all the colours co-ordinate in the paper, inks and ribbon.

measurements

Pretty Peacock – 10″ X 8″ Scored at 2″ on all sides
Brightly Gleaming DSP 10 1/16″ X 8 1/16″ Scored at 2″ on all sides
Very Vanilla strip 2″ wide

The strip of Very Vanilla is the full length of an A4 sheet but was still too short as this is a large gift box. I had to add in an extra little piece that is hidden on the bottom of the box.

Cat in the Box – Cute little Gift Box

Today I have a cute little gift box perfect for any cat lover. This project features the Nine Lives stamp set from Stampin’ Up! and the matching cat punch. I love sets with punches because they make creating so easy and simple.

Cute Cat gift box using the Nine Lives stamp set and matching punch from Stampin' Up! — Cute Cat gift box using the Nine Lives stamp set and matching punch from Stampin’ Up!

I love cats but am highly allergic to many of them, especially if they have longer hair. The shorter the hair the better. When I worked in London I used to be a finance office in social services and spent a good part of my week visiting clients at home. I was walking down a street and saw this gorgeous moggy with long hair and couldn’t resist stroking it. It was a big mistake as I must have touched my eye afterwards. Within half an hour my eye closed up. YIKES!!! I, therefore, have to love them from afar.

This cute little box is made from gorgeous grape cardstock and the matching designer series paper (DSP) family packs.

measurements

Gorgeous Grape cardstock 9 x 6 inches, scored on the long side at 2, 3 1/2, 5 1/2 & 7 inches. Scored on the short side at 1 1/2 inches on either side.
Brights family pack DSP
- 2 3/4 x 1 3/4 inches x 1
- 2 3/4 x 1 1/4 inches x 1
- 1 3/4 x 1 1/4 inches x 2

The Nine Lives stamp set is a two-step stamp set which allows you to stamp the cat with different markings. This is fabulous as all cats have such different and distinctive markings. If you are a dog person there is a set called Happy Tails also with a matching punch!!!

As usual, the video tutorial is below along with the supply list. My question for today is are you more a cat person or a dog person and why? Leave me a comment below.

Until next time, Enjoy Being Creative!!!

Candle / Tealight Storage Box

Cute candle storage box that holds four dinky little tealights. A perfect little gift for a party bag or table favour. This can also double as a place name by changing the sentiment.

I don’t know about you but I love candles and have a huge collection of all shapes and sizes. I don’t really like the ones with a strong scent as they cause my allergies to act up. Sneezing and lighted candles don’t really go well together.

I have made this box many times through the years with different card and paper and every time it turns out super cute.

I have a question for you today. Do you like candles and if so what are your favourite ones? I love the wax melts as well and have one here in my craft room. They are all vanilla though. I did once have one that smelled of Jelly babies but that made me too hungry.

Here are some other projects made using the Mosaic Mood DSP

Until next time, Enjoy Being Creative!!

Tool Box for “Take your Pick Tool”

Took Box I made using the Follow your Art suite from Stampin’ Up! This cute box holds the versatile Take your Pick tool. I love this tool as it is an easy pickup tool, stylus, pokey tool and now you can also get a die brush attachment. What more could you want from a crafting tool? I, therefore, had to make it a pretty box to live in.

Tool Box for the Take your Pick tool from Stampin' Up! — Tool Box for the Take your Pick tool from Stampin’ Up!

I adore this box, it uses one of my favourite colours, Bermuda Bay and the fun Follow your Art designer series paper (DSP). It boasts a magnetic closure so you don’t have to worry about it opening and spilling the contents everywhere.

The box is made separately from the wrap around closure, therefore, making it a very simple and easy make. Previously, I was storing the Take your Pick tool in the original box it came and it such a nuisance to get it out and try and make it fit back in that I never used it. This box is so pretty and just sits on my desk, consequently, I’m using the tool much more instead of the 3 other tools I was using.

Measurements

Follow your Art DSP – 7 3/4 inches x 1 1/4 inches x 1
Follow your Art DSP – 7 3/4 inches x 3/4 inch x 4

As always, I have made a video showing you exactly how to make this box. The supply list is below the link to the video.

That is all for now, until next time, Enjoy Being Creative!!

Cute Gift Box – Magnolia Lane

Cute gift box which is perfect for a lovely birthday treat for someone special.

I have another lovely project to share with you today. Here is simple and easy gift box that is perfect for that special gift for someone important.

Cute Gift Box – Magnolia Lane, made using supplies from Stampin’ Up!

This box is quick and easy to make thanks to the wonderful coordinating products that Stampin’ Up! provides. The box is made from Mossy Meadow cardstock and the lovely Magnolia Lane designer series paper. The magnolias have already flowered sadly but this paper can keep them alive and is great for the gardener in the family. I think this box would have been perfect for my Granny with a lovely little soap in it.

In Lincoln we had some lovely pink and white magnolias that were out a few months ago. I do like the spring flowers as they herald the start of warmth and beauty.

Measurements

Mossy Meadow Cardstock – 8 x 8 inches – Score at 2 inches on all sides
Mossy Meadow Cardstock – 7 1/16 x 7 1/16 inches – Score at 1 1/2 inches on all sides

A Sweet Treat Tin

Hello,

We have been lucky in Lincoln, all the snow from the last few weeks missed us. We had a light dusting but nothing like last year. I am very pleased as was in no mood to be snowed in again. Life has been busy has usual. I’ve been busy sorting out my car. She is now serviced and road tax and insurance paid. I am so pleased with my insurance as I’ve managed to save about £500 on it compared to last year.

I have a cute project to share with you today. I find these little metal tins online and thought they would make a lovely treat tin. They are big enough to hold a good amount of skittles or smarties.

The gingham gala paper measures 5.5cm x 4cm. I do love this set of designer series paper (DSP) It is a lovely mixture of pastel colours and makes me think of spring and all it’s joys.

The ribbon was from Sale-a-bration but is sady sold out now. You could use a number of other ribbons from the annual catalogue or dye a whisper white ribbon with a reinker. Let me know if you what to know how and I will make a video.

Thank you for stopping by and please hop over to my YouTube account and subscribe to keep up to date with my videos.

Until next time, Enjoy Being Creative!!
