My 10 year-old daughter decorated these cute candy containers for her friends. Each container was personalized using the Serif Essentials Alphabet for the Big Shot and her choice of colors and punches. The large scallop is also a Bigz Die for the Big Shot. She wanted all of the containers to have a similar theme, so she used the In Colors with the matching ribbon. Didn’t she do a great job?
Speaking of candy, don’t forget my blog candy giveaway for April. If you have any questions on this project, please contact me.

No TagThese calendar kits are available in the Holiday mini catalog, and they make great gifts for Christmas.
I used the kit from the catalog and added an "easel" and the binding to hold it together. All of the other embellishments (ribbon, die-cuts, and monthly tabs) are included in the kit. I have a limited number of these calendar kits available for sale with the easel and binding. You will finish the decorating by adding the ribbon, die-cuts, and monthly tabs. It will take you about 10 minutes to complete each kit. Isn’t this a great idea for teachers, co-workers, and family members?

My big sister has a big birthday tomorrow, so I needed a special box for her present. I used the Bella Rose Designer Series Paper to quickly make this gift box. My daughter Katelyn said "totally cool", so I think I have a winner.
Stamps: Short Order Alphabet
Paper: Bella Rose Designer Series Paper; Whisper White, Riding Hood Red, and Kiwi Kiss cardstock
Ink: Riding Hood Red
Cool Tools: 1-1/4" and 1-3/8" circle punches, round scallop punch
Bling: white gel pen, 5/8" old olive ribbon
To assemble the box: Score 12"x12" cardstock at 4" and 8" in both directions, creating a tic-tac-toe grid with a 4" square center. From the top and bottom of the cardstock, cut score lines to first cross score line to create flaps. Fold flaps inside and adhere withTombow Multi Purpose adhesive.
.
To assemble the lid: Score 7-1/8" square cardstock at 1-1/2" from both directions, creating a tic-tac-toe grid with a 4-1/8" center. From the top and bottom of the cardstock, cut score lines to first cross score line to create flaps. Fold flaps and adhere with Tombow adhesive.

Shelli Gardner recently demonstrated place settings for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years using the Ski Slope Designer Series Paper, Top Note Big Shot die, and the Curly Label Punch Bunch. She also shows a treat box for Christmas using the Big Shot pillow box die. You can view the video by clicking here or on the picture.
These decorated jumbo paper clips make great bookmarks. Punches such as the circle and scallop circle are a huge timesaver when making these bookmarks. You can find the jumbo paper clips in the office supply aisle at Wal-Mart. I like to use my scraps and bits of ribbon to make these bookmarks. You can personalize them by using a monogram or by using someone’s favorite color (hence the tempting turquoise with the soccer ball). The bookmarks are made with 2 pieces of the largest size (i.e., 2 scallop circles) and a pop-up glue dot smashed in the middle holding everything together.
This pillow box is made using the Big Shot and is a baby version of my previous post. I used the same Alpine Ribbon Originals, square scallop punch, and Designer Label Punch. The finished size is 2" x 3-1/4". Please note that this size is perfect for cash but too small for a gift card.
This pillow box makes a great gift card holder. The pattern for the pillow box can be downloaded here. I printed the pattern directly onto the Kraft cardstock and cut along the solid lines and scored along the dashed lines. Then, I added a square scallop punch of Riding Hood Red cardstock and the stamped image from Winter Post punched out using the Designer Label punch. The Old Olive cardstock is stamped with the snowflake from Winter Post. The pillow box is finished off with ribbon from Alpine Ribbon Originals. This ribbon and the Winter Post stamp set are both available in the Holiday Mini Catalog. This pillow box was inspired by the latest Paper Crafts. The finished size is 3-1/2" x 4-1/4".
This Owl Treat Bag is sure to please the old and the young alike. The bag topper is made using the Big Shot Top Note Die in Chocolate Chip cardstock and the following punches: Round Tab in Creamy Caramel, 5 Petal Punch in Pumpkin Pie, 3/4" circle in Barely Banana, 1/2" circle in Whisper White, and 1/4" circle in Basic Black. Here is a picture of the different punches:
Please email me if you have any questions. Of course, my favorite part is the Hershey’s kisses in the small flat cello bag!
