Gone Fishing tackle gift box

 Happy Saturday!  Welcome to the weekend.  Today, I’m attending our monthly craft day and really enjoying some girl time with my friends.  I hope you can find some time soon to do the same.  As a reminder, through the end of this month, there is a Designer Series Paper sale going on with selected papers from the Stampin' Up! 2023-2024 Annual Catalog.  You can find these in my online store here: https://www.stampinup.com/categories/specials/designer-series-paper-sale?demoid=2109129

Onto our gift box!  I designed this box to fit the tackle box top die in the Gone Fishing bundle by Stampin’ Up!  I love how it turned out.  I was thinking this box could hold fishing tackle for your favorite fisherman or Swedish Fish and a gift card so he can shop for his tackle.  I got too sick after I designed the box, to go shopping for the right size bag, so I used Hershey Nuggets instead.  This could be used for Father’s Day, birthday, retirement or any other occasion you would like it for.  Change the colors, make it a makeup case, jewelry box or whatever you like.  Women like to fish also, so change up those colors and make one for her!  You can watch the video replay over on my YouTube channel HERE:

I sure hope you give this project a try.  I do love how it turned out and I'm hoping my husband will love it also.  As a reminder, I will be gone for the next two weeks, but will return with more content on 
June 22.  I hope to see you back here then.  

Until next time; be happy, stay healthy and happy stamping!

Gone Fishing double flap gift card box

 Before we get on to today’s project, I want to let you know I’ll be out the next two weeks.  Next week will be the final high school concert for my granddaughter and a lot of rehearsals for her final ballet performance.  The following week we are busy with final rehearsals and the performances.  I will return the week of June 21st with more fun-filled content.  Also, there is a Designer Series Paper sale which starts today, June 1 and runs through the end of the month, 15% on select papers from the 2023-24 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog.  You will find those here: https://www.stampinup.com/categories/specials/designer-series-paper-sale?demoid=2109129

Now, onto our projects for the week.  Today I have a double flap gift card box which uses just 1/2 sheet of cardstock.  I designed this specifically to fit a gift card and stay within 1/2 sheet of cardstock.  It will hold six small chocolates as well.  It uses my featured bundle for the week Gone Fishing by Stampin’ Up!  To see how I put this box together, please watch the video replay over on my YouTube channel HERE:
