10th Anniversary Project #4

Here's a fun way to use the Mini Paper Pumpkin box in the Annual Catalog for your gift giving needs. I cased this idea but didn't write down the designer. So Sorry, if this is your design please let me know. I want to give you credit.


Supplies used:
Mini Paper Pumpkin box
Coming Home Stamp Set with Memento Black Ink
2" Circle Punch
Home Together Dies for house and tree
Crumb Cake cardstock for tree
Whisper White for house
House and Gingerbread person raised with mini Dimensionals.
Little Gingerbread person fussy cut from last year's Yummy Christmas stamp set. Then colored with the Ivory Blends Markers.
24" piece of 3/8" Cherry Cobbler retired ribbon from last year's Holiday catalog.



The box holds two Mrs. Fields Chocolate Chip cookies from the Dollar Tree store. You get 3 cookies for $1, but two fit best to enable the box to close.  The box has a inner coating to make it food safe.

Thanks for stopping by to see this cute gift box. I love to read your comments, just click on the linked box below.

Holiday One Sheet Wonder Part 1

Taking a weekend break between Holiday Gift packaging to share today and tomorrow a One Sheet Wonder project where you can make 14 cards from one sheet of 12x12 Designer Series Paper. 

I used the Brightly Gleaming Specialty Designer Series Paper for this, but you can use whatever you have. You don't have to make Christmas cards like I did, you can do a bunch of Birthday cards, etc. I was inspired by Debbie Henderson's ideas, but have made them my own.


Here's a picture of the 12 sides of the Brightly Gleaming Specialty Designer Series Paper.
In directions - referred to as DSP.

10th Anniversary Projects #3

 I did a direct CASE of Karin's Papercrafts Window Box Project because it was so cute, I just had to try it for myself. I did select different patterns from the same package of Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper that she used. So now you have two looks to decide between.







Here is Karin's Papercrafts You Tube Video - Why mess with greatness? Her idea was genius!






Thanks for stopping by today for another gift giving option to use during this holiday season.

10th Anniversary Projects #1 and #2

My 10th Stampaversary Event got caboshed by pandemic changes in my state, so I thought I would share my Holiday Gift projects here with you. I will share all 10 projects over the next week or so. It's not too late to make some for yourself to give friends and co-workers.


Project #1 - is a Dollar Tree Candle with the scent of Hot Cocoa and Cream. I thought a mug tag would be appropriate. The two stamp sets I used are retired but maybe you have them in your collection - Hug in a Mug and Cup of Christmas, along with Cup of Cheer Dies.

The Supplies are: Cinnamon Cider Ink and Cardstock, Whisper White Cardstock, Real Red ink, and 20" of 1/8" All the Trimmings Ribbon Combo Pack in Real Red. I used Multipurpose Liquid Glue, and a non SU Slot Hole Punch to thread the ribbon through the tag to tie around the candle lid.






Project #2 - A Belly Band for the 3 x 3 Acetate Box, that I filled with 6 Reese's Peanut Butter Cups but you can fill the container with whatever holiday candy you like best. I was inspired by multiple Demos for this stocking stuffer project.

The materials I used were - Garden Green Cardstock, Retired Santa's Workshop Designer Series Paper (DSP), Everything Essential Stamp Set, Essential Tag Punch, Gray Granite Ink, one Red Rhinestone, and  20" of non SU 1/8" satin ribbon.

Belly Band Cutting and Scoring Measurements:
Garden Green Cardstock - 2-1/4" x 11", scored at 3-1/8", 3-7/8", 7" and 7-3/4"
Santa's Workshop DSP - 2" x 11", scored at intervals of 3-3/16" and 13/16" and repeat one more interval set.

I used Tear and Tape to affix both layers to themselves after they were wrapped around the acetate box. That way they would slide easy off and on the box. Then the tag was stamped, hole punched with a normal hand held 1/4" hole punch and the red ribbon was tied around the filled box. So Cute!


I hope you have enjoyed these two easy projects. Many of the materials are available to order at my online store at www.evadietz.stampinup.net

I'd love to read your comments, so please share your thoughts about these projects.



Happy Start of December! Happy Crafting! Thanks for visiting!
