Stampin' Creative Blog Hop: Perfectly Plaid Card &Treat Box


Welcome to the Stampin’ Creative Global Blog Hop! Currently you are visiting Julie Davison from Champaign, Illinois in the United States. I am so honored to join this group of talented demonstrators from around the world to share fresh ideas with you each month!  This month, we are sharing festive treat projects. Since I mostly mark cards, sometimes I find it challenging to come up with 3-D projects, so I can't wait to see what my friends have created!
I created a pair of coordinating projects for you! I love the Perfectly Plaid bundle in the Holiday Catalog. The stamp set coordinates with the Pine Tree Punch and combined with the Wrapped in Plaid Designer Paper -- it makes crafting for Christmas so easy!

The Wrapped in Plaid Designer Paper comes in a 6" x 6" stack. These cozy patterns come in the traditional Christmas red and green and also include navy and gold, so they work well with many different stamps, not just the Perfectly Plaid trees! This layout is clean and simple and lets the trees stand out!

I used similar elements on the treat box: the designer paper, Gold Foil circle, and stamped tree. I stamped the outline image in Navy ink and filled it in with Shaded Spruce. This little box is made with a half sheet of cardstock -- that's 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" in the United States. (Side Note from my readers around the world: the new Stampin' Up! Paper Trimmer has both imperial and metric measurements so you don't need to convert!)

Here is the template for the box. Be sure to check back tomorrow for my video tutorial and another Half Sheet Treat Box using brand new products!

Instructions for Half Sheet Treat Box:
  • Start with a piece of cardstock that measures 8-1/2" x 5-1/2". 
  • Score at 1-1/2", 4", 5-1/2", and 8". 
  • Turn 90 degrees and score at 1-1/2". 
  • Cut on the score lines up to the 1-1/2" score line. Completely remove the tab at the end.
  • Fold on all the score lines. Use Tear & Tape to adhere the box together.
That's all from me today! Thank you for visiting! Be sure to come back for that video tutorial tomorrow more Stampin' Up! projects! For now, it's time to carry on with the blog hop and see what other amazing projects my Stampin' friends from around the world have created for you!

    VIDEO Tutorial: 3 To Every Season Spiral Pop Up Cards

    VIDEO Tutorial: 3 Stampin' Up! To Every Season Spiral Pop Up Cards ~ 2019 Holiday Catalog ~ www.juliedavison.com 
    When I saw the To Every Season bundle in the Holiday Catalog, I knew these adorable punched images would be perfect for the Spiral Pop-Up Card! And they are! I couldn't stop with just one! I put a spiral pop up in all three of my Stamp of the Month Club cards! This versatile bundle has you covered for many occasion!

    This month's Stamp of the Month Club Card Kit features three of the 2018-2020 In Colors and the coordinating designer paper pack. I paired each color with a lighter/darker color for a monochromatic look: Grapefruit Grove and Cajun Craze above, Balmy Blue and Blueberry Bushel below, and Blushing Bride and Lovely Lipstick for Valentine's Day.

    The Spiral Pop Up is so easy! Start with a 2-1/4" Circle and cut a spiral. Attach the long end to the inside of the card with a glue dot. Put another glue dot on top of the spiral and close to the card to secure it to the inside. Watch the quick video to see these cards in action!

    Stampin' Up! First Frost Congratulations Card

    As I was looking for project photos to share during the one day sale earlier this week, I thought of this card that I made with the First Frost stamp set and I realized that I never shared it here.  I love the color combination, which includes the now-retired Tranquil Tide. I think you could substitute Pretty Peacock or Mossy Meadow and still get the same effect.

    I think the vine of leaves stamped vertically creates a nice background. Check out the other cards that I've made with the First Frost stamp set. Click on each image to go to the original blog post with project details.
