How to Assemble Sweet Gingerbread Treat Boxes

Spread the love!

Follow my video tutorial and make these gingerbread houses using the SWEET GINGERBREAD stamp set and GINGERBREAD HOUSE dies to make these delightful treat boxes.

Fresh Freesia, Highland Heather, and Blackberry Bliss Soft inks are the perfect colors for gingerbread whimsy with candied gum drops in Tahitian Tide, Pale Papaya, Pear Pizzaz, and snow drifts of fluffy icing with Snowfall Accents Puff Paint. The candy elements can be layered for a “sweet” impact. Add ice glitter for a “sugared” effect that will add sparkle.

My Project PDF not only includes details for this project; but includes instructions for making the Gingerbread House and the Shaker Card.

Assemble a Sweet Gingerbread Shaker Card

Spread the love!

Follow my previous POST with a video tutorial on how to make these gingerbread houses using the SWEET GINGERBREAD stamp set and GINGERBREAD HOUSE dies. Now let’s transform these gingerbread houses into a Shaker Card for the holidays!

Fresh Freesia, Highland Heather, So Saffron, and Tahitian Tide are the perfect gingerbread house with candied gum drops in So Saffron, Pale Papaya, Pear Pizzaz, Tahitian Tide, and snow drifts of fluffy icing with Snowfall Accents Puff Paint. The GLOSSY DOTS accents (page 142) are perfect candied embellishments. The added ice glitter is ICE GLITTER (retired). Recommend Ranger Distress ROCK CANDY for a “sugared” effect that will add sparkle and Ranger MICA Flakes for shaker fill.

The Penguin Playmates DSP (retired) from last year offers the perfect background as well as the opportunity to use items from your crafting stash.

Fancy Folds: Pop-Up Tree Lot Card

Spread the love!

This POP-UP card features the TREE LOT DIES that were offered during SALE-A-BRATION and the TREES FOR SALE stamp set.

This card is all about the DETAILS….the camper dies to offer exactly that — great detail to create the centerpiece for this tree lot “diorama”. Die cut the sign and dog to add fun and whimsy.

This is very much a “fancy fold” technique card since it features “mountains” and “valleys” to create the pop-up insert. My Project PDF will provide the POP-UP template (that can be adapted for other projects) as well as all project and product details.

Lastly, blending, masking, and stamp-stamp-off techniques are featured for creating the background.

How to create seasonal wreaths using simple stamping techniques with ink and embossing powder using the SPARKLE OF THE SEASON Photopolymer Stamp Set from Stampin’ Up!.

LAYERING INK and CLEAR EMBOSSING Technique for Depth & Dimension

Laying colors from either a fall or winter palette creates depth. Begin with the lightest color and then layer each additional.

Add VERSAMARK and CLEAR embossing powder to the stamped image to give you two professional effects. It pulls out vibrant colors from the ink as well as adds dimension to your stamped image. You can even apply two layers of Versamark to your stamped image (Holly Wreath example)

Cutest Halloween Gift Bags and Tags

Spread the love!

Here’s a fast tutorial for making GIFT BAGS using 6″x6″ DSP (Cutest Halloween and Beautifully Penned DSP (FREE with a $50 purchase during SALE-A-BRATION) card stock.

Create easy tags using the Cutest Halloween stamp set and Tailor Made Tags Dies with the Metallic Mesh and Gorgeous Grape Sheer Ribbon.


VIDEO TUTORIAL

The video features all dimensions for cardstock and assembly details.


Tailored Made Tags Dies

Arrange the Tailor Made Tags on one piece of 8.5″ x 11″ card stock to yield 11 tags for gift giving or embellishing your gift bags. Below the card stock is cut to 6″ to fit your DIE CUT MACHINE to cut 8 tags. The remaining card stock will cut 3 tags for 11 total.

The die-cut tags add a finished look to any project.

Place on die cutting plates and hold in place with POST ITs or WASHI TAPE.
I love the smooth edging from the die-cut tags. However, I found the holes too small for practical use. I used a HALF CIRCLE PUNCH to create a larger hole for the ribbon

Easy Gift Bags

WHAT YOU NEED: Use 2 sheets of coordinating 6″x6″ paper. Preferably Designer Series Paper (DSP) from Stampin’ Up!’s vast assortment. And a SCORE BOARD.

Here is the pattern will all the dimensions for scoring and cutting both sheets. I have identified the direction for scoring and cutting to accommodate any direction-dependent pattern DSP “pattern top”.
