Gift Bag Box project Tutorial

I'm so excited to share with you today a video tutorial 
sharing how I made the gift bag box that I shared the 
other day,  you can see the post HERE  

Featuring Stampin' Up! products



This gift bag box is a really great size and I originally
made it to hold The Body Shop hand wash and hand lotion
inside there is a tray to hold them in place. see below,

Heres the video Tutorial  





The bag box uses 2 sheets of 12x12 cardstock, 
plus Designer Series Paper

I've made these ones for my daughters school teachers.
I purchased the gifts, and then set to making something
to gift them in and this is how this came about, 
It definitely holds lots more as the one I made 
for my dad held a bottle of aftershave, 2 bars of chocolate 
and a pair of socks!

Ink. Stamp. Share Monthly Blog Hop

Card Making Blog Hop

Card Making and Papercraft Blog hop

Stampin' Up! Gilded Autumn Suite

Welcome to this months 'Special' Ink. Stamp. Share Blog hop
This special hop was introduced back in April / May time when the UK
went into its first Lockdown, it gave us the opportunity to share 
what we had been working, the UK is back in another month 
long Lockdown until early December. I'm so thankful we carried 
this hop on! and we can share what we love with everyone.

Heres what I've been working on:

Using the beautiful Gilded Autumn Suite from Stampin' Up!

Stampin up Autumnal Birthday cards

I've been batch making some birthdays cards for up and coming 
birthdays, I try and work a month ahead and have them ready, but
best laid plans don't always work out, these cards I've made 
for the last of my November Birthdays and some of my December 
Birthdays, I also made extras and these are some spares to add to my stash, 

Stampin up Gilded Autumn

I sometimes find I can scrap last minute for a card, 
With the current lockdown restrictions here in the UK, I find I've been 
being asked more by family and friends 
for cards for those who dont shop online,

Stampin up Beautiful Autumn

Did you spot the little Acron Trinket?? 

These cards will cost a little more to post due to the adding 
of the gorgeous little Acorn Trinkets, but I love them, they really are 
lovely and add an extra special touch, this is something to 
bare in mind when your adding embellishments to your cards, 
(I dont mind paying that little bit more)

The card involved very little stamping really, as the background layers
all use the Gilded Autumn Designer Series Paper (DSP), in fact
the only stamping I did was Stamping my sentiment which
I've stamped on to DSP also, my 
sentiment is stamped in Early Espresso ink, 
then punched out with the Story Label Punch, 

You dont have to use DSP though 
you could stamp all the different layers, 

Card Measurements

card base 10.5cm x full a4 sheet, scored in half at 14.85
lay in your trimmer landscape and cut off 7.5cm

so you'll have a piece measuring 10.5cm x 7.5cm, this becomes the front
for your card, I saw the idea for this card layout / style recently at 
Stampin' Up! OnStage @ Home event and couldn't wait to give it a try.

Stamp 'N Hop Blog hop - 3d Project

 

Stampin' Up! Artistry Blooms Designer Series Paper

Welcome and thank you for coming over to this months 
Stamp 'N Hop Blog Hop we our a 
group of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from all over the world
sharing card making and papercraft ideas and inspiration using 
Stampin' Up! Products.

This months theme is 3d Project, so I thought I 
would share with you the Gift Bag Box I made
for my Dads 65th Birthday this last week.

Stampin' Up! Gift bag

I've called it a Gift Bag Box, because it is 
a box but then it has a handle so its a bag too!

Whatever it is its MASSIVE it uses two sheets of 12 x 12 
Cardstock and held a bottle of aftershave, socks and 
2 bars of chocolate! that's a fair but right??

**ADDED ** I've now created a video sharing how I made
this project which you can view HERE

Stampin up Artistry Blooms

I used the fab Denim ribbon, and used it
for the handle and tag.

The Main box is made with Night of Navy Cardstock
with Coastal Cabana and Bermuda Bay

Stampin up Artistry Blooms

I LOVE the Artistry Blooms DSP, all of the papers are beautiful, 
and there's both papers for men and women, 

Gift Bag Box

I added some Brass Foil Sheet to die cut the 65 
and to layer up my tag, it really added the little bit extra
to my project, I really struggle with mens cards and projects as I do 
love a bow and prettyies!, but here I have tried to keep 
it simple, I used several ribbons knotted
on to the tag, I get to add ribbons (WIN) but it doesnt look 
girlie or fussy!

I created two further little tags with the Happiest of Birthdays
stamp sets, combined with the Lovely Labels pick a punch.

The background is created with Balmy Blue cardstock
inked with Misty Moonlight and Night of Navy ink
I then flicked the sponged background with Frost white shimmer paint

once my background was dried I popped it inside a cello bag, 
and added lots of snowflake sequins, I then sealed the cello bag
around the sponged background tight, this is the shaker part complete
its soooo easy and fun to create
