A CURVY CHRISTMAS CHOCOLATE BOX

The last project I made, during my Facebook Live on Wednesday, was a gift box.

I found a Santa KitKat in my grocery store last week and I knew that I wanted to make a gift box to present it.

My favourite stamp from this bundle is the curvy ‘star banner’ from the CURVY CHRISTMAS STAMP SET.

155364 CURVY CHRISTMAS PHOTOPOLYMER STAMP SET

For this project, I used my STAMPARTUS and the HINGE STEP TECHNIQUE to stamp the image onto the gift box cardstock. POPPY PARADE is such a great colour for Christmas projects.

The gift box dimensions are – 4.5″ x 1.75″ x .75″ – a long and thin gift box.

Lift the lid and another stamped image is revealed.

The gift tag was stamped and then punched using the ESSENTIAL TAG PUNCH. I also used the LABEL ME FANCY PUNCH to punch out the small circle to thread the ribbon through.

The Poppy Parade gold edged ribbon is from the ALL THE TRIMMINGS RIBBON COMBO PACK.

I also added some GILDED GEMS to the tag before popping it up with some dimensionals onto the front of the box.

I will be making some more gift boxes, like this, as I prepare for a new craft market that is starting on the first weekend of November. They would be a great, small gift for a teacher or a Secret Santa gift.

Who would you like to be a Secret Santa for?

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.

The QUITE CURVY VARIETY BUNDLE product number will be 158396 and the bundle is $123.25 AUD/$148.50 NZD.

Each of these products will either be early release January – June Mini Catalogue and others will only be available during the promotion period. I will share details just before November 3rd, when you can place an order.

A VERY CURVY BIRTHDAY

The second project I made during my Facebook Live on Wednesday and it is blue and glittery!

The BALMY BLUE GLIMMER PAPER card front was die cut using the ‘eyelet’ style die. To fill the space, between the die cut edges, I used a piece of WINDOW SHEET.

The greeting was stamped on the Whisper White card insert. I also stamped a bird from the BIRDS & BRANCHES STAMP SET inside the card.

At first, I wanted to die cut the branch and a bird from the BIRDS & BRANCHES DIES using some RAINBOW GLIMMER PAPER but its sparkle didn’t quite match. So, instead I used the BLACK GLITTER PAPER.

While, at first, I was a bit doubtful about the colour combination I quite like my little blackbird.

The style of this card is quite unusual for me, but I really like to use all of our amazing Stampin’ Up! products in different ways. I want to mix things up – challenge myself – think outside the box – think of different ways to use products – combine different products to see how they work together.

My eldest daughter celebrates a milestone birthday at the end of November. For many, many years she danced and one of her solos was an amazing tap to a contemporary rendition of ‘Bye Bye Blackbird’. So I will add the milestone number to the card front and set it aside for her.

Thanks for popping by … happy stamping.

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

QUITE CURVY VARIETY BUNDLE

Yesterday I shared an Autumn/Fall inspired card using this bundle. So, today, my Facebook Live featured it – I made three projects and will share them over the next few posts.

This bundle is only available for demonstrators at the moment, one of many brilliant benefits of joining Stampin’ Up!®.

It will be available to customers between 3 November 2020–4 January 2021.

The first project I made was a Christmas card.

I don’t stamp directly onto DSP enough. It is so much fun. As you can see, I stamped the pine trees image onto a SAHARA SAND piece of CLASSIC CHRISTMAS DSP, using Shaded Spruce. I also stamped the snowflake image, using Versamark and White Stampin’ Emboss Powder.

A piece of Sahara Sand cardstock was die cut before I ‘shaped’ the greeting to align with the sloping shape.

There wasn’t a narrow Shaded Spruce ribbon, so I coloured a piece of SEASIDE SPRAY 1/4″ METALLIC RIBBON using my DARK SHADED SPRUCE STAMPIN’ BLEND. I was so pleased to see that the metallic shimmer could still be seen.

I plan to make this card again – without the heat embossed snowflakes. I am happy to have a large space of DSP. What do you think?

Thanks for popping by … happy stamping.

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

The QUITE CURVY VARIETY BUNDLE product number will be 158396 and the bundle is $123.25 AUD/$148.50 NZD.
