Happy Sunday everyone! I hope everyone is enjoying some much-needed relaxation today. I have another treat/gift box you can use for Valentines, wedding or any time you want to send a little love to someone. I've combined two of the latest products by Stampin' Up! in this project. You will find a video tutorial over on my YouTube channel by clicking this link. I hope you will give it a try and make something special for your friends or family. They're pretty quick and easy to make. Of course, you could make this box for any occasion at all just by changing colors and decorations. If you don't have the banner dies, no worries, you can use two pieces of cardstock 3 3/4" x 5" and it will work just as easily. To make the banner ends, cut down in the center of one end about 1/2", then cut down from each side to the center cut to make your own banner if you would like.
A place to share my love for paper crafting as an independent Stampin' Up!®️ Demonstrator.

Season's Greetings banner cocoa & cookie gift card box
Today is all about a quick and easy banner die box made to fit a cookie, cocoa, gift card and candy cane. Who wouldn't want to receive one? I love using the different banner dies to make boxes. They're all so wonderfully easy to put together and, depending on the decorations you choose, quick! You can watch the video tutorial over on my YouTube channel by clicking this link. This one doesn't take a lot of supplies to make.

Hot Cocoa is the best lollipop treat holder
Hello everyone, I’m so happy you stopped by. My project today is a lollipop holder designed by Marisa Alvarez. I’ve cased her design and changed it up a bit. I hope you like this quick and easy gift idea. They can be made with charms pops, tootsie pops or others of about the same diameter. Let’s see how to put this together by watching the video replay over on my YouTube channel.

Grateful for Peppermint Ghirardelli tuck tab treat box
For my final project this week using the More Than Autumn Bundle, I've designed a treat box to hold two Ghirardelli squares. I was inspired for this project by my youngest grandson who loves his cocoa with marshmallows and sprinkles. As I've said before, this is my favorite time of year as it's treat box season. This bundle of products from the September-December Mini catalog by Stampin' Up! just screams treat packaging to me. As Ghirardelli Squares are available just about anywhere, I wanted to include this box in my projects this week. To see how I've put this box together, be sure to watch the live replay over on YouTube.
