Down Home Christmas Card Class

I love to think a bit out of the box, so I was playing around with the Sincerely Santa Project Kit and decided that rather than make the tags the way the kit was designed, I’d make some cards instead.  Then I got to thinking that since most you (my loyal followers) don’t live close enough to come to my classes in person, I’d bring a class to you!

Joyous Noel Gift Box with Tags & Tidings Bundle

Last night I held my annual Customer Appreciation Party.  It was great fun spending the evening with some wonderful ladies that have had a huge part in making my business such a success. I love them like family and treated them to dinner, stamping and some special gifts.  They each received one of these boxes with a small token of my appreciation inside.  I thought you might like to see how I made them.

Halloween Tiny Treat Box

From a 4-1/4″ x 4-1/4″ Baker’s Box I shared yesterday to this 2″ x 2″ Tiny Treat Box, we’ve got your Trick or Treat boxes ready to go!  

Stampin' Up! Halloween Tiny Treat Box, Stampin' Up!

Look how easy it is to transform a simple clear box to a wonderful Halloween Treat Box.  Add a bit of the Toil & Trouble Designer Series Paper to the lid and 3 of the sides and top it off with a spooky spider web cut from Basic Black cardstock using the Cauldron Framelits.  The Trick or Treat tag was stamped using a sentiment from the Cauldron Bubble stamp set then punched out with the 3/4″ and 1″ Circle punches.  Isn’t the Black Glittered Ribbon with a Spider embellishment the best finishing touch?  Actually, my favorite finishing touch is the Reeses Peanut Butter Cups inside the box!  Yum!
