Today I have a little box that is just the perfect size for a gift card AND I have a video!
If making boxes seems intimidating, trust me, they are easy. Most boxes follow the same type of instructions and once you’ve made a few, you can whip right through them. The hardest part is figuring out the dimensions and I’ve done that for you!
It’s also quite easy to make your own shredded paper for the inside. Simply cut your cardstock very thin, scrunch it up and you have your own homemade filler for the box. How easy is that?
All of the supplies I used for both boxes can be found in the supply list below and can easily be ordered over at my online store. Don’t forget that Bonus Days are here until the end of July which means for every $50 purchase, you’ll receive a $5.00 Bonus Days coupon to spend in August.
Top of the box: 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″ score at 1″ on all four sides
Bottom of the box: 4-1/8″ x 5-1/2″ score at 1″ on all four sides (don’t forget to cut a smidge off of two connecting sides)
Designer Series Paper: 3-1/4″ x 2″

To create today’s card, I used the Hand-Lettered Prose dies along with the stamp set, Well Said. These dies make it so easy to create a fancy looking card! I decided it was time to do some heat embossing so I pulled out my heat tool, Versamark & white embossing powder and embossed the word friend. Embossing never, ever fails to make me ooh and ahh – I love embossing!
Using my die-cutting machine, I cut each of the five letters, four times in Purple Posy cardstock. Then I used Multipurpose Glue to stack them up, layer by layer. I used the Multipurpose Glue again to adhere each letter to the front of the card. After embossing the sentiment, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back. Our Gingham Gala Adhesive Backed Sequins completed the card.

Thick Whisper White: 11″ x 4-1/4″

Each Tuesday I share a tutorial for a card I’ve recently shared on my blog. Today’s tutorial is for the card I shared last Friday. If you missed the post, you can see it here.
No Contact
Recently I’ve received several orders that are No Contact. This means that the person placing an order would prefer that their name and information not be shared with me by Stampin’ Up!. I’ve had several customers notify me that they’ve placed an order but when I’ve received notification of their order, it has been a No Contact. But the funny thing is, they had no idea they had checked the box for no contact. If you place an order from me, you WILL hear from me. I will send you a thank you email AND I’ll send you at least one card kit and a thank you card. If you don’t hear from me, that means you were probably a no contact customer. I love saying thank you and letting you know that I appreciate your order so if you don’t hear from me, please reach out to me!!
Every $50 purchase this month earns a $5.00 Bonus Coupon to spend in August!! You also start earning Bradley Points that can be redeemed for free product!! Click hereto place an order!!
Today’s card is quick and easy! Look at those cute birds! The Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper is definitely the star of this card. It’s a shame to cover any of the paper with a sentiment but it definitely adds to the card.
Did you know that you can find the coordinating colors to all of our packages of paper right in the catalog as well as in the packaging? With Stampin’ Up! paper you never need to wonder or guess which colors will coordinate. I love that!
I used Calypso Coral for the base of my card and then added a layer of Daffodil Delight. The sentiment also sits on a scalloped oval of Calypso Coral. You can find all the measurements I used, farther down in the post.
