I really enjoy making little treat boxes and bags to give as class favors, party favors, and gifts to friends. Stampin’ Up! makes this easy with the array of products it offers. In today’s post, I use the Book Treat Boxes to make a gift card holder or candy holder.
Aren’t they super cute? They remind me of the Lifesaver holders from when I was a kid. Find these Book Treat Boxes in the September-December 2024 Mini Catalog. The plain white design allows you to customize these any way you like. You receive 10 boxes for $10.
In today’s post, I share a cute box covered with Stampin’ Up!’s Sentimental Christmas 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper.
Measurements
Here are a few simple directions to help you get started:
- Sentimental Christmas (or patterned paper of your choice) measuring 9 3/4 x 4 1/4
- Sentimental Christmas image punched with 2 3/8″ circle punch
- Pretty Peacock card stock die cut with circle from the Stylish Shapes Dies
- Pretty Peacock & Gold 3/8″ Metallic Ribbon (about 9″ to tie a bow)
- Petal Pink and Pretty Peacock Foiled Gems
- Self-adhesive Velcro dots
Imagine all of the ways these can be decorated with different papers, images, and embellishments.
Sentimental Christmas Designer Series Paper
This festive patterned paper features traditional holiday images: holly and berries, candles, snowflakes, candy canes, Christmas trees, and more! Fussy cut individual elements for quick accents. Or cut the lantern and candy cane paper into six pieces to make quick card fronts. This paper was hand-drawn in colored pencils for original designs you won’t find anywhere else.
In addition, with each purchase of the Sentimental Christmas Designer Series Paper, Stampin’ Up! will donate $3 to support children’s literacy around the world.
