Today I’m sharing a little box I made for a pack of gum using Stampin’ Up! Magic In This Night Designer Series Paperand the stamp set, Banner Year. I’ll have a video tomorrow showing how to assemble the box but today I will include the measurements I used (you can find them below the Supply List). Edited: I just realized that I incorrectly stated which stamp set I used. Up until now I didn’t realize that we have two Boo stamps! The one I used is from the stamp set, Have a Hoot. You can compare both stamp sets farther down in the post.
I used Basic Black cardstock for the both the top and bottom of the box and added a piece of Magic In This Night Designer Series Paper to the top. To add lots of sparkle, I added some 3/8″ Glittered Organdy Ribbon around the box and used Black Glitter paper for the spider and oval underneath the sentiment. The spider was die-cut using the Little Treat Box Dies.
The sentiment was stamped onto Whisper White cardstock with Memento Ink using the stamp set, Banner Year (please note that I used Have a Hoot as indicated in the first paragraph) and then cut out using the Layering Ovals Dies. Come back tomorrow and I’ll show you how easy it is to make this box!

I started with a piece of Mint Macaron cardstock and then added a layer of Very Vanilla cardstock that was embossed using the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and the Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List).
Next, I adhered a folded piece of Mint Macaron cardstock onto the front of the card and added a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock to the inside.
I added another piece of Very Vanilla cardstock to the front before adding the Gilded Autumn Designer Series Paper. This paper is so pretty in person but I found it difficult to capture it’s beauty in my photographs.
Using the Layering Ovals Dies and the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, I cut a scalloped oval using our Copper Foil Sheets. The sentiment, also cut out with the Layering Ovals Dies, was stamped onto Very Vanilla cardstock using Mint Macaron ink and the stamp set, Borders Abound (I love the fonts used for the sentiments in this set). Before adding it to the card front, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back. Super easy to make!

As a thank you, all orders placed at my Stampin’ Up! online store receive at least one of my card kits which include all the paper and embellishments needed to create a beautiful card. The paper will be cut, scored, punched and die cut for you so all you have to do is sit down and create (you’ll just need to supply a stamp set, ink and adhesive). You’ll also receive a PDF Tutorial that will include pictures, directions, measurements and a supply list along with several more versions of the card (same layout but different designs of the paper I’m featuring).
At the moment, I have several different card kits but if you’d like a card kit that features the paper and layout used on today’s card, just send me an email after you’ve placed your order. I can’t guarantee that I’ll still have these card kits available but if I do, I’ll honor your request.
