Little Treat Box

These little treat boxes are perfect for a small 'love' gift or if someone just needs a little 'hug'! They are also great for Halloween treats for someone special!






This box was made using 2020-2022 In Color DSP, 2020-2022 In Color Glimmer Paper, and Party Parakeet cardstock. The embellishments are from the Bewitching bundle and the Best Witches stamp set. 


The box is easy to construct. It just requires a little scoring, cutting and folding. 

The dotted lines are the score lines. The shaded areas are the cut areas. After you cut thetwo small rectangles off the left end, then just trim the remaining piece at an angle to create the tab. At the two center score lines, cut each little square up to the score line, then trim at an angle to create the tabs. At the right end, trim out the large rectangle then angle trim the two remaining tabs.  The You Tube video will show all the scoring and trimming in detail.

The supplies used are Parakeet Party cardstock, 2020-2022 In Color DSP, 2020-2022 In Color Glimmer Paper, Basic White cardstock, Label Me Lovely punch, Witch Hat Builder punch, Best Witches stamp set, Black twine, Red Rhinestones, Starry Sky ink. 

These little boxes can be used for a variety of occasions. This box is to encourage someone who is going through a rough time.

The supplies used for this one are Basic White cardstock, Texture Chic DSP, Petal Pink cardstock, Cottage Rose stamps & dies, Seasons of Chic dies, Distressed Gold DSP, Soft Succulent cardstock, Brass Butterflies.

Give these cute boxes a try. I think you'll find lots of uses for them! Thank you for visiting my blog. Please click FOLLOW to the left and if you watch the You Tube video and find it helpful, give it a 'thumbs up' or better yet, share it with someone you think might enjoy it!!

Peekaboo Farm Gift Card Holder

 Today's Stampin Thursday Facebook Live featured Peekaboo Stamps, Basic White Notecards and Envelopes, Stylish Shapes dies and Biggest Wish stamp set. All of these combined to make a gift card holder perfect for children! This video can also be seen on You Tube.



To make this gift card holder, I used the Stampin Up Notecards and Envelopes. It's the perfect size for a gift card holder. 

You will need to cut 1" off  one end of the notecard. Crease the fold and turn the card 'upside down'.  Use whatever stamps you want to decorate the front of the card. You can watch my video to see how I did mine. When you have finished decorating, use Tear N Tape to secure each side of the holder. And you're done!! Add a gift card or some money and you're ready to send it. Oh, and don't forget to decorate the envelope!

Here are the other two that I did.

Snowfall Peekaboo Treat Bag

Today's Facebook Live shows how easy it is to create a treat bag using the Peekaboo Treat Bags found on page 140 of the Annual Catalog...10 bags for $6.

The products I used to create the Snowfall Peekaboo Treat Bag are 
    *white treat bag (159252)
    *Decorated Pine die for the boughs pg. 47 in Mini Catalog (159711 for bundle)
    *Evening Evergreen cardstock (pg. 123 Annual Catalog)
    *Joyful Flurry snowflake die (159812 for bundle) pg 19 Mini Catalog. 
    *Basic White cardstock (pg. 123 Annual Catalog)
    *Iridescent Rhinestones Basic Jewels (158130) pg. 142 Annual Catalog
    *Evening Evergreen Windowpane ribbon (158135) pg. 145 Annual Catalog
    *Snowfall Accents Puff Paint (150691 pg. 43 in Mini Catalog $4,50
    *Heat gun 

To prepare for the video I cut several pine boughs in Evening Evergreen, several Basic White snowflakes and cut about 10" of the ribbon. It was such an easy prep!

To assemble the bag, shake your Snowfall Puff Paint then add some to the ends of the pine boughs. Using your heat gun, put heat on them until they puff up. Do both boughs that way. Now you can adhere the boughs to the top of the bag with liquid glue. I like to just add some to the top of the bough, leaving the rest of the bough free to stand up a little. On the video, I accidentally 😕added glue to the lower part of the bough but my preference is to add it to the top.

Once you've added the boughs and trimmed the excess stem, then add your snowflakes. Place an iridescent rhinestone in the center of each snowflake. Tie your ribbon into a bow and attach with a glue dot and you have completed your treat bag. Now to add the treat to it...white M&Ms, white jelly beans or whatever you want!!

Here's the You Tube video. Watch for my BIG mess-up! LOL!
