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

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.

measurements

  • Basic Grey cardstock – 10″ X 5 3/4″, scored:
    • On the 10″ side at 1″,4 1/2″, 5 1/2″ & 9″
    • On the 5 3/4″ at 1″ & 8″
  • Peony Garden Designer Series Paper –
    • 3 1/2″ X 3 1/4″ X 1
    • 3/4″ X 3 1/2″ X 2
    • 3 1/4″ X 3/4″ X 2

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!!

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!!

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.
