HERE IS MY 3D THURSDAY PROJECT, I HOPE YOU LIKE IT

For this project I used this week’s ‘bundle’ as well as the Mini Pocket Envelope Dies. I wanted to make an open box with envelopes on each side.

MINI POCKET ENVELOPE DIES

These Mini Pocket Envelopes are too cute.

The box base measures 2-3/8″ along each side and is 3″ high.

I used two of the DSP designs to cut and assemble the envelopes. These were thenadhered to each of the box sides. The top flaps were folded down.

There are two dies in the set to make this very cute small bow.

Each of the four envelopes have a piece of Basic White cardstock, ready to write a short word of inspiration for the recipient.

I am always surprised by what I can make with stamps, ink and paper – and, maybe a few other things.

Tomorrow I will be sharing a Fun Fold card. Come back tomorrow and check it out.

Until then, happy stamping.

THURSDAY IS ALL ABOUT 3D PROJECTS

Today I am using some new packaging from Stampin’ Up!® for my project.

The Embossed Treat Bags are a great place to start for gift giving.

EMBOSSED TREAT BAGS

Then all you need to do is decide how to decorate it.

I’m featuring the Texture Chic Suite this week but haven’t used any of the Christmas/snowflake products yet. So, I have a Christmas gift bag for you.

I started by cutting the tags using two of the Tailor Made Tags Dies. The Evening Evergreen tag was embossed using one of the Wintry 3D Embossing Folders.

The second tag was cut from the snowflake DSP and the Basic White tag was stamped with the Christmas greeting from the Christmas Scottie Stamp Set.

I used two of the snowflake dies, from the Chic Dies set, to cut several flakes to add to the tags and the bag.

A length of Evening Evergreen Open Weave Ribbon (retired) to attach the tags to the handle of the bag.

This was such an easy little gift bag to create.

Tomorrow is Fun Fold Friday.

Until then, happy stamping.

A 3D GILDED BIRDCAGE GIFT BOX

This week I have been showcasing the Pretty Birds Bundle.

For my 3D project, I wanted to feature the larger of the bird cage dies for a gift box.

I added adhesive Sheets to the back of gold paper from the Gold & Rose Gold 6″x 6″ Metallic Specialty Paper before die cutting four of the bird cages.

After cutting and scoring the Basic Black cardstock for the gift box, I attached the gold bird cages. THen I constructed the gift box.

The greeting is from the Charming Sentiments Stamp Set and was stamped using Versamark Ink. I sprinkled black embossing powder, from the Basics Stampin’ EmbossTM Powders pack, and then used my Heat Tool to melt and set it. Next time I will heat from underneath the Gold Metallic Specialty Paper to ensure the gold on the specialty paper doesn’t melt.

The gold and black gift box is really quite elegant. What gift would you pop inside?

Tomorrow I have a Fun Fold card to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping.
