I love making little gift boxes and bags. I’ve made this style before but I just love how cute it looks. The binder clip closure is just something different. It also uses up my huge stash of clips. I love stationery and have a collection of different paper clips, binder clips and lots more. Sad but true.

The paper is the Harvest Meadow designer series paper (DSP) and I love these bright and joyful colours. This gift box uses Bumble Bee and Misty Moonlight. These are both primary colours and work well together.

The cherry cobbler ribbon on this box really makes it special. You won’t believe how long I fiddled and fiddled with that box to try and make it look half decent. Bows are really not my forte. The paper is beautiful wintery Painted Chistmas. I love this design. Its wintery but not necessarily Christmas which makes it so versatile.

Using Harvest Meadow DSP to Make a Box Bag

This is a bag but it has a rectangular base like a box. As the patterned paper is wrapped around the base there are no corners but rather these lovely curves instead. I’ve made this bag before earlier this year and wanted to try it again for Autumn with this Harvest Meadow designer series paper (DSP).

measurements

  • Bumble Bee Cardstock – 5″ X 4″ scored at 1″ on all sides
  • Harvest Meadow DSP – 4″ X 10 1/2″
  • Misty Moonlight Cardstock 10″ X 1″ scored at 1/2″ on the short side X 2 pieces

How to Make a Fold Flat Gift Box / Decoration – Penguin PlayMates – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.

I’ve made this box a few times but this time I added ribbon to make it into a hanging decoration. The paper is the Penguin Playmates DSP that is free during sale-a-bration. You could quite easily make this with any patterned paper though to suit any occasion. I think this will look dinky hanging from the tree with a little treat inside. Handmade decorations are so special I think. They have a story to them and can become items to treasure through the years.

How cute are these? I struggled with the design for a cute little box for ages and then made this design my mistake and decided to stick with it. The pretty paper is from the Sweet Symmetry suite and gives this project a lovely summer vibe. I did two colour ways, Just Jude and Calypso Coral. Which do you like best?

Isn’t this a pretty bag to place a special treat in. I love making gift bags and boxes and have a whole stack of them. Ever since I was a child I’ve always loved pretty packaging and taking time to make a gift look extra special. It makes all the difference I think to show you took the time to care.

These are really good size gift boxes. They are super easy to make I promise you. I did struggle to see the score lines when I was filming the box on the left. Oh boy!! I couldn’t see those pesky lines for love nor money. I tilted the paper and actually marked them with my pencil off camera. Did it though. The paper is quite masculine as it is the Well Suited designer series paper (DSP). I gave it a little extra touch with the punched flowers and red rhinestones.

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.
