Musical Jamboree Thank you treat box made with tag dies

 I have a treat box made with the tag from Merriest Trees dies for you today.  I’ve combined it with the singing coyote from Musical Jamboree.  I thought this would make a cute music teacher’s gift.  It can fit a gift card and Ghirardelli chocolate squares if you use the larger template (3 1/4" x 3 1/2") which fits the sides of the tag exactly.  The smaller template (3 1/8" x 3 1/2"), does not fit a gift card and fits just inside the stitching on the tag.  I’ve included both sizes here, they’re made exactly the same way, using the same scoring measurements and cutting directions.   Check out the video replay over on my YouTube channel to see how I’ve put it together.  




Supplies and Measurements:

Last Chance items (while supplies last):
Musical Jamboree stamp set 163616
Merriest Trees dies 162047 *discounted (coordinating stamps also discounted)
Wild Wheat Rustic Striped Ribbon (about 14") 164061 *discounted
Stampin' Blends: Wild Wheat & Boho Blue *both are discounted
2023-2025 Opaque Sparkle Gems 163782 *discounted 
Wild Wheat cardstock 3 5/8" x 8 1/2" (already retired as inventory was depleted) 
        Substitute Mossy Meadow or Crumb Cake if needed.
    Cut two pieces from the 8 1/2" strip at 2 5/8" for tags, trim remaining piece to 3 1/4" x 3 1/2"

Current product not on the last chance list:
Ink Pads: Mossy Meadow, Night of Navy, Secret Sea (sneak peek item coming 5/2025), Memento Tuxedo Black
More Messages die 165472 (sneak peek item coming 5/2025)
Mixed Labels stamp set 164643 (for thank you sentiment)
Basic White cardstock for stamping & for the tag and sentiment label
Stampin' Blends alcohol markers: Pecan Pie & Petal Pink
Paper Snips 103579

I hope you have enjoyed some inspiration for using the Musical Jamboree stamp set along with the die from Merriest Trees.  I've used that one die for so many different projects.  It's such a great size and I love the stitching!  To order your last chance items (or any other Stampin' Up! products), click on the shopping cart to the right.  I would truly appreciate your business.  

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

Sneak Peek of Heart Shaped Just Because I Care fold over treat box

 Hello everyone.  I hope you like the sneak peek of one of this year's Sale a-bration offerings by Stampin' Up!  This is a level 2 set which includes a photopolymer stamp set and coordinating dies.  I found some Italian milk chocolate hearts at my local Home Goods store and knew I would need to make a treat box to share them in.  I designed two boxes, one with reinforced sides and front and the other with just a reinforced front so I could get two boxes from one sheet of cardstock if I were to make a bunch of them.  I like to design boxes which allow me to get multiples from one sheet of cardstock.  If you would like to see how I've put this box together, be sure to watch the replay over on my YouTube channel.

Naughty & Nice Fun Fold pocket gift card holder

For my card today, I'm using Naughty and Nice from the Online Exclusives section of my Stampin' Up! online store.  When I started, I wanted a card that was more than a card, yet still quick and simple to put together.  This card came about from a tag I made.  I showed that tag to my oldest granddaughter, who exclaimed Santa tags!  Well, that meant I couldn't very well show how to make the exact card so......I thought about how to change the tag and make a card with it....this is the result of my thought process.  I hope you find it useful.  Of course, you can change this layout to fit any occasion just by changing the stamps and colors.

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:



Measurements and Supplies:  
Gone Fishing bundle (stamps and coordinating Gone Fishing dies)
Misty Moonlight cardstock, 10 3/4" x 7" for box, scored as shown on template above.
    three pieces approx 4" x 5 1/8", die cut all three pieces with the inner divided tackle die
    one piece 3 5/8" x 4 7/8" to mount the three stacked tackle die pieces above on. 
Boho Blue cardstock, approx 1 3/4" x 2"
small Silver Foil scrap
Small Smokey Slate scrap
Very Vanilla scrap for stamping and die cutting images
Tinsel Gems three-pack
Ink Pads: Pebbled Path, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, Lemon Lime Twist, Boho Blue, Azure Afternoon, Sweet Sorbet, Calypso Coral, Misty Moonlight.
Wink of Stella glitter brush
corner rounder
1/2" circle punch
Stampin' Cut & Emboss machine

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!

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:





Measurements and Supplies:
Gone Fishing bundle (includes stamp set and coordinating Gone Fishing dies)
Layering Leaves stamp set for outside sentiment (or use what you have)

Hello everyone!  Today is Project 9 of the 12 Projects of Christmas.  I have a great gift option for you today.  First off, let me thank Dawn Griffith of Dawn's Stamping Thoughts for the inspiration for this project.  When I saw her make one, I just knew I had to make one with the Snowflake Wishes stamp set.  I love how it turned out and I hope you do too!  Now without further ado, let's get started.


This card holds anything that is 1/2" thick or less so you have quite a few possibilities for treats inside.  My pouch holds a packet of cocoa, Ghirardelli chocolate and a chocolate peppermint stir stick.
