Gather Together Borders Bakery Box - Stampin' Up!

Hi Friends!
My project today is a  2 1/4  x  2 1/4"  Bakery Box that is 1" high.  I used Boundless Borders stamp set, Gather Together stamp set, North Pole Wonder dies and Gilded Autumn Specialty paper.  This box can hold 1 or 2 Reese's Peanut Butter Cups or 3 Ghirardelli Squares.



I started with a piece of Very Vanilla sized  7 1/2  x  4 1/4".
I scored the 7 1/2" side at:

I scored the 4 1/4" side at:
1 and 3 1/4"

To cut and put this box together please see my video tutorial here.


After I cut the tabs of the box I embossed the side using Boundless Borders stamp set, Versamark Ink and Gold Stampin' Emboss Powder.
I cut a piece of Early Expresso Cardstock and Gold Foil Specialty paper with a die from the North Pole Wonder dies and Embossed the sentiment from Gather Together stamp set.  I attached the gold foil piece on the back of the Sentiment piece a little lower.


I added a  2 1/8 x  2 1/8" piece of Early Espresso on to of the box and layered a piece of Specialty Designer Series Paper sized  1 7/8  x  1 7/8" on top of it.
I cleared the hole at the top of the label, ran some gold cord from Wonder of the Season Ribbon Combo Pack and tied a bow.


I ran the same cord around the box twice and tied a knot.  I put Dimenstionals on the back of label and attached it to the top of the box.

I added Wink of Stella glitter to the pumpkins and spider piece.
I added the spider to the bottom of the label with a Dimensional.


I filled a cellophane bag with 3 mini candy bars and some filler grass, leaving a about an inch of room at the top.
I put the Melon Mambo label over the bag and stapled it on with the ends of the staples facing forward.
I attached the stamped Whisper White piece on the front of the bag with Dimensionals.

I used the North Pole Wonder die set to cut another piece of the DSP (I changed the sentiment piece from the video because the Mint Macaron Cardstock looked bright green in my pictures) and some Cajun Craze cardstock.  I stamped the sentiment on the circle with Early Espresso Ink.

Festive Post Large Twisted Bag - Stampin' Up!

Hi Friends!
This is a much larger size of the Twisted Bag I did last week and it has a beautiful fold over at the top to showcase BOTH sides of the DSP.



I started with a piece of Poinsettia Place DSP sized 11 x 8 1/2"
I scored the 11" side at:
2 and 9"
I scored the 8 1/2" at:
1/2 and 4 1/2"
Turn to the opposite side of the 8 1/2" side and score ONLY to the 1st score line at:
2 and 6"

To cut and put the box together please view my video tutorial here.


I punched a piece of 2" wide Real Red Cardstock with the Delightful Tag Topper Punch.  After punching the top of the 2" side I cut the length to 3".
I stamped the line image from Festive Post stamp set on to a piece of scrap paper first, then onto  Whisper White Cardstock with Old Olive Ink.  Then I cut it out with the Rectangle Postage Stamp Punch.


When the Old Olive lines were dried I stamped the Reindeer Image from the same set with Versamark Ink.  I sprinkled the image with Gold Stampin' Emboss powder, shook it off and then heated it up with the Heat Tool.
I attached the finished, cooled image to a piece of Old Olive Cardstock sized 1 5/8  x  2 1/4", then attached it all to the red tag with Dimensitionals.


I punched 2 holes in the middle top of the closed bag.  I ran Metallic Edged Vanilla Ribbon and Real Red Sheer Ribbon together through the punched holes, attached the Tag to it and tied a bow.


I added some Metallic Pearls to the right side of the top of the bag.
I colored a Basic Rhinestone with the Dark Real Red Stampin' Blend and added it to the Reindeer's nose.
