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 3/4″ X 2 pieces

How to Make a Christmas Table Favour Bag

How to Make a Christmas Table Favour Bag – Tis The Season – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

These bags would be perfect for a table favour any time of the year but I love this Christmas version. You could put a little Ferrero Roche in each one. They are super easy to make as they involve no cutting at all.

Considering Christmas this year is likely to be very different for most people than normal, it will be nice to make it extra special. These little handmade touches make any occasion extra special. You could use the same Tis The Season designer series paper to make little place names or Christmas decorations.

measurements

Full sheet 6″ X 6″ Tis the Season designer series paper scored at 1 1/2″ on opposite sides and 2 1/4″ on the other two opposite sides

I love Poinsettia’s – Pretty Gift Bag for Mother

I love Poinsettia’s – Pretty Gift Bag for Mother – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

So what do you think of these pretty gift bags? I would love to received a gift in one of these, wouldn’t you?

Poinsettias, with their red leaves, just say Christmas time to me. I was surprised when I saw the Poinsettia Place designer series paper (DSP) and realised none of the poinsettias were red. Being a naturally curious person I decided to do a little research. I found that now there are different varieties of poinsettia with pale yellow, plum and dusty pink bracts.

These bags would be perfect for any time of the year. The berries are autumnal and the flowers do not ring out Christmas as they would with red leaves.

measurements

Poinsettia Place DSP – 9 1/2″ X 9 1/2″ Scored on one side at:
- 1 1/2″, 4 1/2″, 6″, 9″
- On the second side at 1 1/2″ & 8 1/2″
Poinsettia Place DSP – 1/2″ X 10 1/2″ X 2 pieces

Yummy Treats – Gift Bag – Stampin’ Up!

I have this cute little gift bag to share with you today. It is perfect bag to give with some yummy treats. I have used chocolates here but you could equally have biscuits or sweets.

The designer series paper (DSP) is the Artistry Blooms paper and I love the ombre effect. I had to raid my mother’s stash of chocolates as I don’t them. As a Type 1 Diabetic and I find it just too difficult to match my insulin to the sugar in the chocolates with it causing issues so I don’t bother. I was never a chocolate fan so it’s no great loss to me. Head the warning though, never eat chocolates or sweets found in my craft room as they will be years and years old!!!

I think a little stack of biscuits would have looked good. Unfortunately, I haven’t baked in years. I did in London but here we have a fancy oven with sorts of programmes, bottom heat, top heat, circa roasting etc… I’m not sure which to use for baking and don’t want to ruin the biscuits so sadly I haven’t tried at all.

measurements

Night of Navy Cardstock – 8″ X 10 1/2″, Scored at:
- Long Side -, 2″, 5″, 7″,9″
- Short Side – 2″, 7″

Best Dressed Gift Box – Stampin’ Up!

This is the last project I have to share with you from the 2019-2020 catalogues. They retire today!! My last make is this Best Dressed Gift Box which features the designer series paper of the same name.

All Dressed Up Gift Box - Stampin' Up! — All Dressed Up Gift Box – Stampin’ Up!

The purple in this box is Highland Heather and isn’t lovely. It reminds me of the wisteria that is growing over the top of my front window. I am not a traditional girly girl and initially I thought I would hate this paper as it is full of lipsticks and handbags and such like. I then discovered the otherside are these lovely florals and I was hooked.

As I’ve been driving in my local area to the supermarket, chemist and grocery shop I’ve been struck by the beautiful wisteria, laburnum and of course the glorious lilacs. We have two purple lilacs in the back garden and they are such a pleasure to see. The leaves of the trees are all new, fresh and so green!!! This was my inspiration for this floral and spring feeling box.

The box itself holds four tealights so is perfect for a little extra birthday gift or even as a table favour for a special at home date night.

Measurements

Highland Heather 8 3/4″ x 4 3/4″ scored:
- On the long side at 3/4″, 4″, 4 3/4″, 8″
- On the short side at 3/4″ on each side
Best Dressed DSP 3″ X 3″ & 1/2″ X 3″ X 4

Do you enjoy making little gift boxes and gift bags? I love them. They are so cute and dinky. Of course I struggle to give them away as I want to keep them all!!

Best Dressed Floral Bag – Stampin’ Up!

I have another cute bag for you using the Best Dressed Designer Series Paper (DSP), hence the name best dressed floral bag.

The Best Dressed DSP has makeup and fashion themed patterns on one side and on other are these amazing floral designs. I am quite a tomboy and makeup and fashion have never held much attraction to me. I love the florals though.

This box is what I call pencil case style. It has a magnetic closure but it is the DSP that makes it sing to me. I love this pattern, it is so happy. What are your favourite styles of patterned paper?

I know some people find box making quite difficult to do so I made a template but I will also give you the measurements here.

measurements

Old Olive – 7 1/2″ X 10″ – Scored:
- On the short side at 1/2″, 3″, 4″, 6 1/2″
- On the long side at 1″, 7″

Golden Honey Gift Bag -Stampin’ Up – SAB 2020

I have a little Golden Honey gift bag to share with you today The Golden Honey Designer Series Paper (DSP) is so elegant and beautiful. I want to use it as much as possible for it goes away. This is a free sale-a-bration product so will only be available until the end of March.

I think this DSP is perfect for male cards as well. I love the foiling on every sheet. It is pretty without being tacky. This bag is very simple to make with a turned down top for extra interest. I did attempt to tie a bow to close it but as you can see I wasn’t very successful. I won’t tell you how many times I tried!!!

All I would say is as you are using paper, be careful when you score that you don’t tear it. Score lightly a few times rather than once heavily. I use the thicker end of the embossing tool as well.

measurements

Golden Honey DSP – 11″ x 7″ Scored at:
- Long Side – 1/2″, 4 1/4″, 5 3/4″, 9 1/2″
- Short Side – 1″, 5 1/2″
