July 30th, 2020

Welcome to the Stampin Creative Blog Hop! For July we have some fun Min Treats to share with you. Get some inspiration and great ideas and maybe get ahead on some holiday ideas? I know I am!

I made a 2, 4, 6, 8 box.. super simple. No lid.. just used a bag and twine to tie the bag shut. You could put any mini treat or even a small hand sanitizer in it for a friend!

Here are the deets:

5 x 8 1/2 inches piece of card stock and score on the long side at 2, 4, 6, and 8 inches. Score on 1 of the short sides at 2 inches. Assemble your box!

The DSP (Magic In This Night) NEW 2020 Holiday Catalog 1 3/4 inches x 2 3/4 inches.

Stamp Set: Everything Essential (Holiday 2020)

Punch: Essential Tag Punch (Holiday 2020)

Ribbon: 1 1/2 inch Metallic Mesh Ribbon (Holiday 2020) – it almost looks like a spider web.. its really cool!

Featured Colors: Basic Black, Blackberry Bliss, Cajun Craze, Pretty Peacock and Whisper White.

I hope you have enjoyed my project.. super easy and it can be a box used for so many different themes/ holidays. And, the best part.. EASY!

Now, lets hop around and explore what my friends across the globe created! Be inspired with those listed below and.. thank you again for being a part of our blog hop:

Dont forget.. today is the last day to take advantage of the Bonus Day Coupos! For every $50 you spend, Stampin Up! will send you a $5 coupon! Now is a great time to stock up on your card stock, and adhesives before the holidays approach!

Have a great day.. make something pretty and get inky!

Digits and Directions:

use one of our gold pizza boxes to decorate. They are the perfect size by the way for a cookie, some chocolates, or 3×3 notecards!

Using the Merry Christmas Stamp from the Perfectly Plaid stamp set, stamp the sentiment in Cherry Cobbler
Punch out a Cherry Cobbler with the Starburst Circle Punch. Glue to the box with a few Stampin Dimensionals.
Using some scrap Whisper White and Shaded Spruce, stamp the tree on each color using Shaded Spruce classic ink.
Using the Pine Tree Punch, punch both out and ahere to the circle with Stampin Dimensionals.
Glue together the “flags” with snail adhesive. then using some bakers twine, wrap around the edge and tie a cute bow. Adhere with Stampin Dimensionals.
Fill with your favorite treats – as these boxes are food safe! Enjoy giving it to your BFF!
