Join me as I demonstrate step-by-step how to create delightful Gingerbread Gift Boxes by using a combination of various current and retired STAMPIN’ Up! products, as well as items easily found at your local craft store or in the baking aisle of your favorite supermarket. Get ready to unleash your creativity as I guide you through the process, from collecting products, and cutting the cardstock to assembling and decorating the final gift boxes.
The key features of this Gingerbread Gift Box Project are the Pearlized and Metallic Enamel Effects and the Shimmery White Embossing Paste on SU card stock (Cinnamon Cider / Pecan Pie / Copper Clay / Fresh Freesia / Moody Mauve).
I provide detailed instructions and helpful tips as well as showcase a variety of techniques using the versatile STAMPIN’ Up! products specifically designed to add an extra touch of charm to your gift boxes with PEARLIZED OR METALLIC ENAMEL EFFECTS, SHIMMERY WHITE EMBOSSING PASTE, festive ribbons, and glittered embellishments, you’ll discover endless possibilities to customize your creations.
But don’t worry if you don’t have access to retired STAMPIN’ Up! products, as I also suggest alternative items. You’ll be surprised at how creative you can get with items you already have in your craft room.
