REAL TREAT GIFT BOX

I wanted to make a gift box in a take away box shape – 2″ in the base and 3″ square at the top. So it was off to the drawing board and the paper trimmer and scorer.

I am sooooooooo pleased with the end result.

This project features the PAMPERED PETS STAMP SET and PETS DIES.

I used the LAYERING CIRCLES DIES to create the little pull topper. The STITCHED GROSGRAIN RIBBON is from the PLAYFUL PETS TRIM COMBO PACK and was the best choice for the pull topper.

Now, I’m not really a cat person – I’m actually allergic to them. But, I do have lots of friends who are fond of them and this gift box will be purr…fect for one of them.

I like the look of contentment on this cat’s face. She looks like she may have just finished the cream.

There are so many cat favourites on the DSP- a ball of string/wool, a mouse and fish.

I popped the greeting up on dimensionals – a few single ones at the top and then doubled dimensionals along the bottom.

The final touch, a few RED RHINESTONE BASIC JEWELS and a heart from the PLAYFUL PETS TRINKETS.

This project is ‘the cat’s whiskers’!

Hope that you like it. Thanks for popping by … happy stamping.

These are the products I used to make this gift box. If you live in Australia, you can order any of them through me.

ANOTHER THINKING OF YOU GIFT BOX

When I chose a piece of paper from the IN GOOD TASTE DSP for a gift box, I realised the texture was exactly the as my winter dressing gown … and the same colour!

I wanted to make a narrow gift box that would hold a small sachet of face scrub. I like finding little things to make gift boxes for.

Who else likes making gift boxes?

THINKING OF YOU

This is such a wonderful message to send to someone special.

Sometimes we only reach out to family and friends if it is a specific occasion.

When someone we know receives a card or gift that is unexpected and it is just to let them know that you are thinking of them.

It has been quite a while since I used products from the FOREVER GREENERY SUITE.

The colour of the little tube of body butter matched PRETTY PEACOCK so well and it is one of the core colours of the DSP.

I thought it was a good idea to keep the punched piece from the front of the box and glue it onto the lid front.

I didn’t realise that I used a retired punch for the sentiment – oops!

Who would you send a gift like this to?
