I am sorry for posting the winner of my blog candy so late in the day. I got on the computer very early this morning to write my post and I was having server problems. After an hour I gave up so I am just now back on the computer!

Happy Easter to those celebrating today! I don’t have a project to share but I do have my new grandson who was born yesterday afternoon! I feel very blessed!
Before I share my project with you today, I want to let you know that for five days next week, any size Stampin’ Up! order will receive FREE shipping!! What a great time to stock up on your favorite crafting supplies or items on your wish list (a Big Shot!!!). Free shipping starts on Monday!!
Several days ago I shared a pen that I filled with my favorite Stampin’ Up! paper. Today I’m sharing a way to take that pen and transform it into a gift, Stampin’ Up! style! Watch the video below and see how to put the gift together!
Here’s a picture of the box closed (sorry it’s such a poor photo). It’s hard to tell but I used the Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer paper for both the front of the case and the small notepad – much prettier in person.
You can see the small notepad post HERE and the pen post, HERE.
Have a wonderful weekend! Be sure to check back on Monday!! I’m celebrating an anniversary and there just might be some blog candy! 🙂

I love office supply stores and always gravitate towards the pens and paper! I have no business going anywhere near the pen/pencil department as I have WAY too many pens for one household but that never stops me. I especially love it when I can combine one of my favorite Stampin’ Up! packages of paper with a pen! That’s just what I’ve done for today’s post. Watch the video below to see how easy it is to transform a boring pen into a pretty pen!

For those of you who receive email notification of my blog posts, I wanted to make sure that you know that I’ve edited my last post. I incorrectly stated that Saleabration would be continuing one more day. Wishful thinking!!! TODAY is the last day! Sorry for any confusion! I’ve been up half the night and I’m obviously feeling the effects!
If you have never made a sour cream container before, you need to give it a try! They are so quick and easy to make! Pop a few treats inside and you’ll make someone’s day!
I made mine in two different sizes. The smaller one uses a piece of DSP measuring 4-1/4″ x 5-1/2″. The larger one uses a piece that measures 5-1/4″ x 6-1/2″. You aren’t limited to these two sizes, experiment and try different sizes!
The Designer Series paper I used is a Sale-a-bration freebie called Best Day Ever. Tomorrow is the LAST day to receive this paper FREE with a $50 order! I used a crimper on the ends of the Calypso Coral sour cream container. Stampin’ Up! no longer carries this product but they are easy to find. And it really is just as cute without the crimping.
Watch the video below to see how to make your own sour cream container! If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask!

A quick and easy box to make is the 2, 4, 6, 8 box. Its name comes from the fact that you score it at 2″, 4″, 6′ and 8″.
You’ll start with a sheet of cardstock measuring 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″. On the long side you’ll score at 2″, 4″, 6′ and 8 inches.
On the short side, score it at 2 inches.
Next, cut up from the bottom of the paper, up to the 2 inch score line. These will be your flaps. Cut the small section out from the bottom right.
The picture below shows the inside of the box. If you want a hole so that you can see inside the box, put it on the panel indicated. Also, place adhesive (I recommend Sticky Strip or Fast Fuse for all of the areas where I indicate adhesive) on the flap shown. Tip: If you want to add DSP to your box, do it now BEFORE you cut a hole in the panel. You should have (4) pieces of DSP that measure 1-3/4″ x 3-1/4″.
This is the outside of the box. I’ve shown which flaps you should add adhesive to as well as what order to fold the flaps in when you start assembling. I’ve done it so that the last flap will fold towards the back of the box.
When putting the box together, I like to adhere the little flap to the opposite side first. Then fold the flaps in!
If you have any questions, let me know!

Sale-a-bration
Sale-a-bration is almost over!! The last day to get FREE items with every $50 order will end on Tuesday, March 31st. You can add regular priced items, Clearance Rack, Weekly Deals and Digital products to your order to receive freebies! On the right hand sidebar of my blog, you can look through the Sale-a-bration catalog, Annual catalog, and the Occasions catalog. All items in the Sale-a-bration catalog are while supplies last. The items below are also available as freebies (while supplies last).
In Colors
I am going to stock up on Whisper White, Very Vanilla and other colors of cardstock that I use a lot so that I can receive another Sale-a-bration product. If you are in love with the 2013-2015 In Colors that will be retiring soon, I would buy your cardstock, stamp pads, reinkers, pens, and matching embellishments NOW. Last year when the Retiring List came out, the retiring In Color products sold out immediately. The colors that will be leaving us very soon are: Coastal Cabana ( I adore this color), Crisp Cantaloupe, Baked Brown Sugar, Pistachio Pudding and Strawberry Slush (another one of my favorites).
