Hi friends. I have made it a personal quest to find larger boxes so that they can house larger gifts that one would give. I mean a dinky box is great for treats and such but what happens when you want to give a gift that is larger than some treats? I hope you feel the same way as I do and that you like this project.
Enjoy the show…

Hi there. I have never attempted a project like this and I was really pleased as to how it turned out. If you saw my inspiration basket for this you would laugh as it doesn’t look at all what I ended up with. So, in the video I spoke of the neodymium magnets and you’ll have to locate them yourself, I found the big ones at Michaels but I do believe somewhere on the net you can find smaller ones. Anyway, enjoy the show.

Oh, coffee…it’s a wonderful thing. I call it my attitude adjustment in the morning. I would be a serious grouch without it. So I often buy pouches of the instant Starbucks coffee for myself and the salon (don’t knock it till you try it…it’s really good) and that is where I got the inspiration for this little gift bag. Check out the video and if you need any of the supplies I used in this video please just scroll down after the video to the visual product link below and it will whisk you away to my online store where you can shop 24/7.

Hi friends.
I thought I would share with you a project that my sister asked me to create to house 2 small jam jars. As she lives in Calgary, I had to send them to her and it was really convenient that I was able to fold these bags flat. Anyway, check out the video and as always if you like or want any of the products you see me use just click on the visual links below the video and it will take you to my online store.
You’ll need 2 pieces of DSP (pretty paper) sized 10 by 9 3/4. The short side is basically the right way up (meaning if you have a pattern you’ll want it to run in the proper direction NOT the way I did it in my video).
Check out the video for a how to tutorial (albeit slightly confusing but I’m sure you’ll figure it out). Enjoy the show.

Well, this wee box could be given to your sweetie with some chocolates inside. As I have said before the smallest boxes hold the best things. 🙂 This project is made using the new chalk board paper, chalk inks and my favorite stamp set (out of this new catalog – er well so far). The measurements are after the video and a product list is following after that. Enjoy the show.

Hi everyone. It’s Friday and that means a box tutorial. Today I’ve made a video using both the score board and the envelope punch board to make the same sized box to house your homemade cards in. My client/customer Rose requested this size box because I hadn’t made one like this before. The measurements are below the video and I hope you get inspired. All products are listed at the end of this post. Enjoy the show.
Score board Measurement
Scoring on all 4 sides at 1 1/2 inches.
Scoring on all 4 sides at 3/4 of an inch.
Envelope Punch Board Measurement

A wee, dinky little box that would house something very small. I often give little gifts to my customers who purchase Stampin’ Up! products through me. Sometimes I get wee little squares of ink called Stampin’ Spots in my own paper pumpkin monthly. Since I already have ink pads with refills, I sadly can’t use them. However, I do like to share the wealth and pass them along. Instead of just popping said ink in the bag full of goodies that my customers had purchased, I like to wrap the spots up in a cute little box. It’s totally a simple build with a specific purpose in mind however, I can see a few choice candies in the box or a pair of earrings. Anyway, check it out.

EPB? Lol, it’s just the acronym for the amazing, the fun, and the brilliant “Envelope Punch Board”. You know that you can make envelopes with it, and I have shown you in the past a small fun dinky box, plus recently a DVD wrapping with it. Today I am going to show you how to make a mammoth box with it. Ha! It turned out so well, and I am quite pleased at the decorating of it that I can promise you I have a smug smile on my face. 🙂 Check it out.
Enjoy the show.
Cardstock sizing: 12 by 12
Scoring:
Line up at the 4 inch mark, punch and score. Turn counter clock wise, line up the 4 inch mark punch and score. Turn counter clock wise, line up the 4 inch mark, punch and score. Flip the card and start again. Exactly the same, lining up the corner at the 4 inch mark, punch and score and do it on all sides.
Create the last 4 score lines to create the sides of the box by lining up a punched groove on the score guide line (kind of near the bottom right of the envelope punch board). Make the rest of the score lines that way.
DSP: 2 ½ by 4 7/8

I think this is my favorite build yet. What a cute design and so interesting. Love it. It really kinda does open like a clam shell but I decorated it with Christmas paper so I am admittedly sure that it does not look like a clam shell. Ha ha. Happy Friday everyone. I hope that your Christmas preparations are coming to a close and that you get an opportunity to share the spirit with your loved ones. 6 days left!!!

I’m trying my best to offer larger and larger paper craft items as not everyone has use for dinky boxes/bags. After last week’s video tutorial with the rather massive triangle box, I thought I would try my hand at a larger bag. I didn’t have a lot of ribbon to create it with so I used the last bit of satin ribbon I had to seal it together like a pouch. Of course, as with all my projects, please adjust it to your needs. Hope you like it, I really thought the tone on tone stamping was lush but I also liked the heat embossed one too.

I had wanted to try to make a bag or box that would fit a regular sized wine bottle but it does seem impossible with just one piece of 12 by 12 card stock so I accidentally came up with this rather large and imposing triangle box. It is somewhat easy to make and I do say that when it comes together it is impressive. A little weird and awkward to try to glue together but it does work. I hope my instruction here is OK, and I apologize for the short comings of my video camera. It likes to shut off at 20 minutes and this video is a few minutes past that. However, I did manage to splice it together and have one long video for you to view. Hope you like it.
Enjoy the show.
