Still Stamping With Sue

Need Unique Holiday Treat Packaging?

 

It the time of the year to give away holiday treats. And, those treats can be dressed up in pretty holiday packaging. I have four packaging ideas to share with you today.

 

This is an Acetate Card Box. It can be used for more than holding standard-size greeting cards. Many different types of candy will fit in this box. Or you can be like me and squeeze a gigantic cookie inside.

 

A simple 3" x 7 1/2" belly band slips on and off this box. It is from Old Olive Cardstock that was placed inside the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder and put through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. The Whisper White Cardstock and Gold Foil paper were cut out with the Layering Circle Dies. The Whisper White Cardstock tree is from the Home Together Dies (cut three, score in the middle and adhere together). The Gold Metallic-Edge Ribbon was colored with Old Olive Blends. The sentiment is from the Trimming the Town Designer Series Paper.

 

 

This is another Acetate Card Box. It is made to hold 3" x 3" greeting cards. As you can see, these peppermints fit perfectly. You probably could squeeze more into the box. I used a scalloped Layering Square Die on the Trimming the Town Designer Series Paper. Used Paper Snips on Vellum Cardstock to cut a wide "v". Added a Whisper White Cardstock scalloped heart from the Heart Punch Pack. The birdhouse in Real Red Cardstock is from the Home Together Dies. The sentiment is cut from the Trimming the Town Designer Series Paper. The final touch is the white dot from the All the Trimmings Embellishments.

 

 

Bag toppers are another quick and easy project to make. This one is using a Mosiac Gusseted Cellophane Bag, which is 4" x 7". The topper is 4 1/4" x 4 1/2" Basic Black Cardstock, folded in half. Fill the bag with a treat and add two staples to hold the topper on the bag. Add a 1 3/4" x 4 3/4" piece of Whisper White Cardstock that was placed inside the Wrapped in Texture Embossing Folder and put through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine.

 

Attach a Tasteful Touches Die from the Silver Foil Paper with Dimensionals. Use Paper Snips to trim the sentiment from the Trimming the Town Designer Series Paper. Add a Black Glittered bow and a couple of Rhinestones Basic Jewels. 

 

 

This bag topper is on a 3" x 9" Printed Gusseted Cellophane Bag. The topper is a Stitched Rectangle Die in Whisper White Cardstock and folded in half. Fill the bag with a treat and add two staples to hold the topper on the bag. Adhere a 1 3/4" x 4 3/8" piece of the Trimming the Town Designer Series Paper with a Whisper White Cardstock trees/hill out of the Home Together Dies.

 

Use Paper Snips to cut out the sentiment from the Trimming the Town Designer Series Paper. And, the final touch is to add the white dots from the All the Trimmings Embellishments.

 

I hope all these projects inspire you to get creative with your holiday treats!

Looking for Unique Handmade Christmas Gifts?

 

Look no further! I have three unique Christmas gifts that you will be proud to give to anyone. Two of the gifts are ornaments and one gift is adorable note cards. Of course, all the gifts are wrapped in pretty packages. The majority of these projects are using supplies from the Trimming the Town Suite from the August-December 2020 Mini Catalog.

 

Gift #1:

Isn't this the cutest package? Decorating it was simple by using a 2" x 8" and two 2" x 2" pieces of Trimming the Town Designer Series Paper (DSP) to completely cover the 2" x 2" x 2" Clear Tiny Treat Box. All the DSP is inside the box. The top of the box is decorated with a square Stitched Shapes Die from Old Olive Cardstock (attach with Dimensionals). The two trees are from Whisper White Cardstock and the Home Together Dies. The sentiment is cut with Paper Snips from the DSP. The ribbon slips between the Dimensionals and tied in a bow.

 

 

Inside the box is this adorable birdhouse ornament. I cut four of the houses from the Home Together Dies in Old Olive Cardstock. Lined the two tall sides with Poppy Parade Cardstock. The other two sides were cut down to fit. The roof is from 1 1/4" x 2 1/4" Misty Moonlight Cardstock put through the Brick & Mortar Embossing Folder. Thread fishing line in a needle and poke it through the roof and knot it. The wreaths and sentiments are from the DSP. Add some Red Rhinestone Basic Jewels and the Snowflake Sequins.

 

 

Gift #2:

How adorable is this package? Decorating it was simple by cutting four 1" x 3 1/4" pieces of  DSP for the sides of the Whisper White Mini Pizza Box. The top of the box is decorated with 3 1/4" x 3 1/4" Early Espresso Cardstock and 3" x 3" DSP. It has a coordinating Christmas tree from the Stitched Triangle Dies and a hand-cut tree stump. The sentiment is from the DSP and put on a Tasteful Label Die and Layering Circle Die. A tiny Linen Thread bow is the finishing touch.

 

 

On page 24 in the Mini Catalog, there are some paper trees standing by some of the projects. As I was looking at them, I wondered if I could make an ornament with those trees. I glanced at the Gold Hoop Embellishments laying on the table in my craft room. B-I-N-G-O! I knew exactly what I was going to do. Cut three of the trees from the Home Together Dies. Scored down the center of each tree. Used Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue to hold them together. Grabbed the needle with the fishing line and poked a hole at the top of the trees. Tied the fishing line to the hoop. Cut out two sentiments and used Glue Dots on the ends to keep them together. Added Basic Pearl Jewels to the tree. Done!

 

 

Gift #3:

Isn't this elegant? It is the perfect gift for someone who needs last-minute holiday note cards. Decorating the top of the Gold Mini Pizza Box is a piece of Gold Foil Paper that was put inside the Winter Snow Embossing Folder. Added the All the Trimmings Ribbon and the sentiment from the DSP. 

 

 

Inside are three 3" x 3" Whisper White note cards and envelopes. The note cards have a 2" x 3" piece of DSP, 3/4" x 3" Gold Foil Paper, Classic Label Punch from Whisper White Cardstock, the sentiment from the DSP and the All the Trimmings Embellishments. 

 

 

I hope all these projects inspire you to get creative!

The mild winter weather in Minnesota is the best gift this year. We have only had one major snowfall and it has all melted. Temperatures in the high 40's means the hubby and I are out visiting local parks, lakes and soaking up the sunshine. Happy Friday to you and enjoy the weekend!!!

 

 

Creative Inking Blog Hop - Christmas Cards

 

 

Welcome to the Creative Inking Blog Hop where we are featuring Christmas cards. On pages 24-26 of the August-December 2020 Mini Catalog, you will find the Trimming the Town Suite.

 

I was fortunate to be a display stamper using that Suite for an online Product Extravaganza.  Today, I'm sharing a Christmas card and some other projects.

 

This is a 4" x 4" square card using Real Red and Old Olive Cardstock, the Trimming the Town Designer Series Paper, the Winter Snow Embossing Folder, the Home Together Dies, the Stitched Shapes Dies and the Layering Circle Dies.

 

This is a Mini Paper Pumpkin Box that I decorated with the Trimming the Town Designer Series Paper, the Tasteful Labels Dies, the Home Together Dies, the All the Trimmings Embellishments and the baker's twine from the Flowers for Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack.

 

Well, look at that! The box has something in it. I added a liner of Misty Moonlight Cardstock to showcase the three gift tags. All the gift tags use the Home Together Dies, the Trimming the Town Designer Series Paper, the All the Trimmings Embellishments and the All the Trimmings Ribbon Combo Pack.

1. The triangle tag uses the Stitched Triangles Dies and Misty Moonlight Cardstock.
2. The oval tag uses the the Stitched Shapes Dies and the Layering Oval Dies.
3. The square tag uses the the Stitched Shapes Dies and the Layering Square Dies.

 

And, here is the perfect Christmas card, coordinating box and gift tags ready to give to someone! One important thing to mention to you. There is NO stamping done on any of these projects. The images and sentiments are from the Trimming the Town Designer Series Paper. How amazing and simple is that?

Today is one of the last warm days to get our Christmas lights hung on the outside of our house. We have almost no snow left in our yard, which is quite amazing for Minnesota! Yesterday was a balmy 50 degrees, so we took a couple of hours to grab burgers and enjoy eating lunch by a lake and walked around the park. Got to soak up the sun and warmth whenever we can! Have a wonderful weekend!!!

 

Decorated Mini Pizza Box

 

Making a box isn't something that I do very often. But, decorating a premade, sturdy box is something that I really like to do. Today, I decorated a Mini Pizza Box using the Plaid Tidings 6"x6" Designer Series Paper and the Love of Leaves Bundle.

 

Mini pizza boxes are just the right size for holding a cookie, candy, small gifts and 3" x 3"cards.They have a matte finish and are food safe. Super easy to assemble and decorate!

 

 

Directions:

Top: 

1. Cut a 3 1/2" x 3 1/2" piece from the Plaid Tidings 6"x6" Designer Series Paper.  Place inside the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder and put through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. Adhere to the Mini Pizza Box with Stampin' SEAL.
2. Attach a Square Doily with some Stampin' SEAL in the center.
3. On a scrap of Whisper White Cardstock, place a scalloped Layering Circle Die and put through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. Place the circle inside the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder and put through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. Attach with Dimensionals.
4. On a scrap of Balmy Blue Cardstock, place the two Stitched Leaves Dies and put through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. Attach with Dimensionals. Tie a bow around the stems using the blue/white/silver twine from the Flowers for Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack.
5. On a scrap of Balmy Blue Cardstock, stamp the sentiment in Misty Moonlight Ink. Place the Classic Label Punch close to the left of the stamped sentiment and punch it out. With the punch upside down, slide the right side of the punched out sentiment back into the right side of the punch and punch again. This is a GREAT way to get different sizes out of a punch. Attach the sentiment with Dimensionals. 
6. Add three Pearl Basic Jewels.

 

Sides:

Cut four 1" x 3 1/2" pieces from Plaid Tidings 6"x6" Designer Series Paper.  Place inside the Tasteful Textile Embossing Folder and put through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. Adhere to the Mini Pizza Box sides with Stampin' SEAL.

 

Inside:

1. Make a belly band around the cookie using a 1 1/2" x 7" piece of the Plaid Tidings 6"x6" Designer Series Paper, with the ends adhered together with Stampin' SEAL
2. On a scrap of Balmy Blue Cardstock, place the Stitched Leaves Die and put through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine. Attach with Dimensionals. Add a red circle from All the Trimmings Embellishments.

 

A suggestion is to have decorated Mini Pizza Boxes ready to use for an impromptu gift for anyone.

Using Metallics with the Love of Leaves Bundle

 

Today's projects use the Love of Leaves Bundle, which can be found on page 49 of the 2020 August-December Mini Catalog. Since the metallic trend is going strong in fashion, decorating and also in papercrafting, I had to incorporate some of Stampin' Up!'s metallic products in my projects.

• Gold Foil 12 x 12 Sheets
• Copper Foil 12 x 12 Sheets

Since the weather has been warmer in Minnesota this week, I have been outside as much as possible. Visiting local parks to enjoy the colorful trees and getting in a few outdoor patio lunches and dinners. My hubby is still golfing this week. We even have an outdoor wedding this weekend. Everyone knows these days are numbered before the next season arrives! Happy Friday to you and enjoy your weekend!!!
