A merry & sweet Christmas treat box

For my project today, I had to make a treat box.  I picked up a box of the Milano double dark chocolate cookies in individual packs while at Costco.  They were dying to have a box made especially for them.  Ok, so maybe it was just me that couldn't wait to make the box. 😁  I decided to use the scalloped rectangle dies from the Sept-Dec 2026 catalog, along with the October product of the month.  I hope you like how this box turned out and that you will give it a try.  To watch the video tutorial over on my YouTube channel, be sure to click this direct link.

Frosted Pinecone scalloped rectangle fun fold

For my card today I've combined several techniques along with a fun fold to make this beautiful holiday card.  I saw this fold the other day and decided to give it a try.  I didn't use anyone else's measurements so mine may not be exactly what someone else used.  I based mine on the stitched rectangle size embedded in the scalloped rectangle die.  While this card does take a bit of time, it's well worth it and is pretty simple to put together.  I hope you give it a try.  You can watch the video tutorial over on my YouTube channel by clicking this direct link.

Grateful for you sketch card for scraps with Autumn Opulence

For my card today, I took the sketch I used on Wednesday and altered it slightly to make this card.  After I made the sending caring thoughts card, I looked over at the layout and wondered if I could fit the Scalloped Christmas Cheer dies in that center section.  My original thought was to use the second largest die; however, it was just too big for the space so I grabbed the next one down.  It was a little small but then I thought, what if I use a rectangular piece of dsp to fill the center.  How would that same 2 5/8" high piece work along with a 4" wide measurement?  The Scalloped Christmas Cheer die fit that measurement perfectly!  I then decided to cut the inside rectangle on the scalloped in a different color to add more interest.  I do love how this turned out!  Of course, you can use this layout for any season, occasion with any papers and stamps!  Let's see what you make.  Share with me over on my Facebook social page at kntdesigns stampers group social.  To watch the video tutorial replay over on my YouTube channel, click this direct link.

Supplies and measurements:  

Autumn Opulence Specialty DSP 168336
