MINI GIFT PACKAGING


Hello, happy Sunday everyone!
Today I have one final gift packaging idea to share with you all,
This is another variation of the Smarties Mini Treat Box from earlier in the week.
  
Again the packaging is made with the Merry Music Specialty Designer Series Paper,
This template was very easy to mass produce and I ended up with ten of these boxes.

 
The little sentiment comes from the gorgeous Merry Patterns Photopolymer Stamp Set.
I've stamped the sentiment in Versamark Ink onto some Basic Black Cardstock before
using the Heat Tool to heat emboss the sentiment in White Stampin' Emboss Powder.
 
After heat embossing the sentiment I’ve trimmed down the piece of cardstock with the
Stampin Trimmer and cut banner tails into both ends using the Paper Snip Scissors before
placing the banner onto the treat box at an angle with Snail Adhesive.

 
The two die cuts both come from the Card Front Builder Thinlits Dies, the pine tree is die cut
out of Old Olive Cardstock and the adorable tiny deer is die cut out of Silver Glimmer Paper.
Again I’ve used the Big Shot, die cutting machine for my entire die cutting on todays project.
 
I wrapped the smarties box with the Merry Music Specialty Designer Series Paper template,
adhering the flaps down with Tear & Tape Adhesive, this is my preferred packing adhesive.

 
I then attached the pine tree using Snail Adhesive, slightly angling the tree on top of the box,
I’ve the popped up the tiny deer using Mini Stampin' Dimensionals to add depth to the design.
 
Lastly I added three silver sequins from the Metallics Sequin Assortment pack to the box,
I adhered these using the Fine Tip Glue Pen, a great adhesive for adhering small items.
 
I hope you've enjoyed both these smarties gift packing ideas.
Thanks so much for stopping by!

SMARTIES MINI TREAT BOXES


Hello, welcome back everyone!
Today I have a simple gift packaging idea to share with you all,
These little treat boxes make perfect last minute treat ideas for Christmas.
 
Today’s project features a childhood favourite, Smarties Mini Treat Boxes!
I’ve wrapped up a bunch of these to hand out to the kids on Christmas day.

 
The base of the packaging is made with the Merry Music Specialty Designer Series Paper,
Using the Stampin' Trimmer to cut and score the paper to complete my box cover template.
 
The adorable little sentiment comes from the Cheers To The Year Clear Mount Stamp Set,
I've stamped the sentiment with Basic Black Archival Ink onto Whisper White Cardstock.
I’ve then used the Layering Circle Framelits Dies to die cut out the sentiment.
 
To add some sparkle to the project, I’ve used Silver Glimmer Paper to die cut a pine sprig,
The sprig was made with the Pretty Pines Thinlits Dies and the Big Shot, die cutting machine.

 
To add a pop of colour to the treat box I’ve used the versatile Card Front Builder Thinlits Dies,
Die cutting the cute little deer out of Old Olive Cardstock, you’ll be seeing this little guy a lot!
 
Putting the treat box together was simple, I wrapped my box with my template made from the
Merry Music Specialty Designer Series Paper, adhering the flaps down with Tear & Tape Adhesive.
 
I added a small amount of Tear & Tape Adhesive to the back of the sentiment circle to attach the
Silver Mini Sequin Trim, before adding a few Mini Stampin' Dimensionals. This added a nice pop
of dimension to the treat box so it wasn’t completely flat.

 
I then used Snail Adhesive to adhere the silver pine sprig to the box and lastly I popped
the deer up with a Mini Stampin' Dimensionals so it was the same height as the sentiment.
 
To finish the box off I added a little silver star from the Metallic Enamel Shapes pack.
 
I hope you enjoyed this simple gift packing idea.
Thanks so much for stopping by!

#GDP075 - BEST BIRDS

 
Hello, happy Sunday everyone!
Today’s card I created for this week’s Global Design Project challenge,
Our theme for the week is winged creatures - I’ve chosen a gorgeous little sparrow!

 
For today’s project I wanted to mix the old in with the new, I’ve chosen an older stamp set
for the focal image and mixed it up with a new sentiment and some Designer Series Paper.
 
My card base is an A2 top folding card made out of Whisper White Thick Cardstock,
Again I’ve used the Stampin' Trimmer for all my trimming and paper scoring today.

 
For the base of my project I’ve added two paper layers, slightly overlapping each other.
The top layer is from the new Cupcakes & Carousels Designer Series Paper Stack, and the
bottom layer is Soft Sky Cardstock, these two colours work so beautifully together!
 
My focal image is a gorgeous little sparrow from the Best Birds Photopolymer Stamp Set,
I’ve stamped the sparrow in Basic Black Archival Ink to complement my other colours.
I’ve then used the coordinating Birds & Blooms Thinlits Dies to die cut out the sparrow.

 
The “Hello” sentiment comes from the new Chase Your Dreams Clear Mount Stamp Set,
I've stamped the sentiment with Versamark ink onto some Basic Black Cardstock before
heat embossing the sentiment with White Stampin' Emboss Powder.
 
The sparrow is placed on top of a small circle made with the Layering Circle Framelits Dies,
I’ve repeatedly stamped the die cut circle using the same Hello stamp as I’ve used for my
sentiment, stamping the little Hello repeatedly in Soft Sky Ink onto Whisper White Cardstock.

 
Lastly I added a small messy bundle of Basic Black Metallic Thread on top of the stamped circle
before popping up the sparrow using Stampin' Dimensionals to give the card some dimension.
And for a final added detail I also added three Brights Enamel Shapes in Bermuda Bay.
 
I hope you enjoyed this little sparrow card design,
Thanks so much for stopping by!
