Christmas Nugget Box

This was my project from our last demonstrator meeting. I found this cute idea from Dawn O. It's an easy project that comes together quickly.

Here is the inside with all the Hershey's nuggets!

Merry Petals Matchbox


These matchboxes are perfect for making cute quick gifts for friends and family. I used the Petals-a-Plenty textured impressions folder to add some texture to the top of the box as well as to wrap around the chocolate. I used the trees from the Merry Details Sizzlit to decorate the Merry tag I made with Merry Embosslit all of which are from the Holiday Mini Catalog that ends Jan 4th!

Cardstock Colors: Real Red, Certainly Celery, Brocade Blue, Soft Suede

Great Gift Boxes

I love the Sizzix Scallop Box die and matchbox die!  There are so many possibilities for these cute little gift boxes!  I used the Sweet Slumber Specialty DSP for both boxes because the paper is a textured cardstock that is perfect for making these boxes!  

For the scallop bag I used the Great Friend set and Matchbox die to embellish the front.  For the matchbox, I added ribbon through the slot punch whole in the top and bottom.

You can get the Sweet Slumber Specialty DSP for free all this month with Stampin' Up!'s Scrapbooking promotion!  For more details, check it out here!

Butterflies & Chocolate in the Park



I had so much fun creating the projects for this month's stamp club meeting!  We made a Push/Pull or Double Slider Card and a cute matchbox with chocolate nuggets inside!
The directions for the card are here.  I stamped the leaves onto the DSP to add some more color.  Then I ran some Walk in the Park DSP and some baja breeze through the Sizzix with the new exclusive Stampin' Up! Butterflies die.  I put the smaller butterfly through the Sizzix again with the dotted texture plate and added three dots of glitter glue that I made by mixing crystal effects with dazzling diamonds glitter.

Here is what the card looks like with the sliders pulled out.  Everyone loved sliding them in and out, in and out!
For the little matchbox, I ran some more Walk in the Park DSP and some of the medium weight window sheets through the Sizzix with the Matchbox die.  Then, we stamped the Polka Dot background with some white staz-on on the window sheet and wrapped some of the beautiful Whisper White Organza Ribbon around it. We added "celebrate" from the Matchbox Messages stamp set layered with some baja breeze that I also ran through the Matchbox die.  Finally, we wrapped the chocolate nuggets with the Walk in the Park DSP and placed them in the box!
