Santa's Sleigh Gift Box

My project today is a little window gift box, created using the wonderful Christmas stamp set that I have had soooo much use from

Santa's Sleigh

and I love the cute dies that co-ordinate with it too!

Cherry Cobbler is definitely my favourite Christmas red, what is yours?

I've teamed it here with Garden Green, another great colour for this time of year.  The Hearth and Home framelits have made another appearance, it's so useful and perfect for all occasions, Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter!

Here's a different view of the box:

Watercolor Wishes Card Kit by Stampin’ Up!

It's looking lovely outside at the moment, although heavy rain is forecast directly upon us later and with a trip out on my bicycle planned I may have to postpone, we will just have to see!

 

So today I thought I would share a video with you.

 

On 7th November I am holding some classes at Whitminster Village Hall and one of the classes includes this kit, it is AMAZING!

 

It's not too late to take part in this class so if you like what you see and would like to join me, just get in touch by Friday morning at the latest and I will reserve you a space!

 

The class runs from 9.30am - 1.00pm and I am sure you will be finished before, class costs £35 and includes the kit valued at £31.50

 





 

If you can't make it to the class, you can purchase the kit via my online shop and because it is valued over £25, if you use my HOSTESS CODE you will receive a free gift in the post from me to say thank you for shopping with me.

 

 

Please remember to apply the HOSTESS CODE otherwise I can't include you in my gift offering.

Bakers Box Die

 

Today is a very exciting day for me, as a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator I get to have sneak peaks at the new upcoming

Autumn/Winter Catalogue

 

You will be able to view and purchase from this catalogue at the beginning of September, and once I have had the opportunity to place a pre-order in August I will start sharing some sneak peaks with you!

 

I was lucky enough to receive a set of stamps as a Pillow Gift in Madeira and I plan on creating some projects with that very soon, so watch this space!

 

 

 

Have you seen how cute this little box is?

 

It's created using a new Thinlits Die set in the Annual Catalogue called

 

"Bakers Box"

 

I just love how sweet it is and how easy it is to put together

 

You create the box by die cutting two pieces and adhering them together, all from one A4 sheet which is great!

 

The set is £30 and includes 9 dies, some of which enable you to cut different types of handles so you can choose!

 

 

 

We made this box at my recent Big Shot Class so it co-ordinates with the last card that I posted here a couple of days ago

 

Again I am really trying to step away from Mint Macaron but it's so hard, I love it!!

 

The cute little greeting is from another new set called

 

"Homemade for You"

 

There is a die in the Bakers Box set that cuts out the starburst zig zag circle

Gift Box Punch Board Box Christmas Packaging

I love how quick and easy it is to create a box using the new

 

Gift Box Punch Board from Stampin' Up!

 

Here is made my box using the Trim The Tree Speciality Designer Paper which is AMAZING!  I love how thick the kraft paper/cardstock is, perfect for boxes and bags.  The patterns are gorgeous and the colours are great.

 

The Cherry Cobbler Sheer Linen ribbon is gorgeous, ties perfect bows and can be found in the Autumn/Winter Catalogue.

 

I created a "lid" for this box, it's not difficult to do and gives a different finish to the usual boxes created with the board.

 

 

I added a tag using the "Note Tag" punch, stamped images using the "Cheerful Christmas" then made another tag using the Scallop Tag Topper Punch with more of the Trim The Tree DSP and pegged my smaller tag to it.

 

Would you like to learn how to use the Gift Box Punch Board and are local to me, why not join one of my classes in the New Year, details to follow soon.

 

I may even do a "Class in the Post" so do come back to find out more.
