Pretty Pillowbox Poinsettia table favor/gift card holder/treat box-- Project 12 of the 12 Projects of Christmas 2021

 Well, we've reached the final project for the 12 Projects of Christmas today.  I hope you have enjoyed this series as much as I have.  I have to give credit for the inspiration for my project today to Sherry Roth of Stamped Treasures.  I used her directions to make the treat box and took inspiration from her decorations, but of course, I put my own spin on things.  I'm very pleased with how it turned out and these go together fairly quickly.  You can watch my YouTube video to see how I put these boxes together here https://youtu.be/W4O58KsgrFg 

Inside view which shows how much you can put inside this box.  Inside this particular box I have a peppermint snowflake, two holiday creme de menthe chocolates, and two Merci chocolates.  It also is sized to fit a gift card.  

Finished box size is 4 1/4 x 4 x 1 1/2".  The finished size for the inside box portion is 3 1/2 x 1 1/4 x      1 1/2"

Poinsettia Petals Cocoa Bomb treat box 12 Projects of Christmas 2021

Just a reminder, the Last Chance products sale from the July-December 2021 mini catalog is happening now through January 3, 2022.  All products are while supplies last so be sure to get yours!  In addition, check out the Clearance Rack as we just had a clearance rack refresh of new items.  Again, these are while supplies last and deeply discounted.

Today’s box is the 2nd project in my 12 Projects of Christmas series.  It is a treat box I designed to hold a cocoa bomb.  My particular cocoa bomb fits in a 2 1/4” square treat box.  It is decorated with the Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper.  You can find a video showing how I made these here https://youtu.be/SsXTpISGacY 

The Poinsettia decoration is cut from the Red Velvet Paper using both the outline and the embossing dies from the Poinsettia Dies by Stampin’ Up! The leaves are cut from Pear Pizzazz using the leaves dies in the same way.  Flower center has a trio of Champagne rhinestones.

The box is made from a 9 1/2 x 7 3/4” piece of Mossy Meadow cardstock cut like the template below.  It is matted with five pieces of 2 1/8” square cardstock in pear pizzazz and five pieces of Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper cut at 2” square.  The sentiment on the front is stamped from the Poinsettia Petals stamp set in Mossy Meadow and cut with a rectangle die from Beautiful Trees dies.

Here are the measurements and cutting template for the box.

Poinsettia Petals Thank you Card

 Hello and welcome to the beginning of my 12 Projects of Christmas series for 2021.  Today I am featuring Poinsettia Petals. I made two cards utilizing the stamps and dies.  The card design is cased from Marisa Alvarez.  The first card has the poinsettia petals stamped in Cherry Cobbler and colored in with the light Real Red Stampin’ Blends marker.  The leaves are stamped in Mossy Meadow and colored with the light Mossy Meadow Blends marker.  I cut the sprigs fromBumblebee cardstock and covered them in Wink of Stella.For the center of the poinsettia, I first colored with the Bumblebee Stampin’ Write marker, then added three Decorative matte dots to the center.  The splatter is done in Mossy Meadow and comes from the Merriest Moments stamp set.  The strips of Designer Series Paper are from Heartwarming Hugs and the gingham piece is 1 1/4 x 4”, the striped piece is 3x 2”.  You can see how I made this card by watching here https://youtu.be/SsXTpISGacY 

The second card uses Designer Series Paper and dimensions.  Instead of coloring, I stamped Cherry Cobbler on Real Red for the poinsettia petals and Mossy Meadow on Pear Pizzazz cardstock for the leaves.  The sprigs are cut from the gold brushed metallic cardstock.  The solid flower center is cut from Bumblebee and overlayed with the detailed flower center also cut from the brushed metallic cardstock.

This is the inside of both cards.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.  I hope you liked what you saw.  I will be posting projects daily for the next twelve days to complete the twelve projects of Christmas.  Please join me over on my Facebook page at KnT Designs by Teresa for live videos featuring the 12 Projects of Christmas at 7:45 pm PDT each night excluding Mondays and Wednesdays.

Until Thursday; be happy, stay healthy and happy stamping!
