This is my favorite projects so far made with Stampin' Up's new Table Setting die. Cut out the napkin ring, score it just below the bumps, fold, tie a ribbon around the whole thing and you have yourself a quick and easy gift card holder. I attached a gold cord to this one using the thingy?? from the die so my gift card could be hung in a tree. On the back I cut out an ivory tag and stamped a sentiment.
Here's my first project using the table setting die. I used basic grey cardstock and ink. Score the napkin ring on either side of the centre bump to form the bottom . I taped a pkg of candy to the inside and used a black brad to hold the top together.
Here's a quick and easy box. The lid is the bottom of the sizzix matchbox. Here is a mini tutorial.
I just realized I never posted the instructions for this quick and easy card box. Cut a piece of DSP 10" wide x 12" high. Score length wise @ 2" & 8". Score width wise @ 5" & 7". Cut the two horizontal score lines up to the vertical score lines and fold your box up to assemble. To make the flap, score a 6" x 6" piece of cardstock @ 1" & 3". Attach the 1" piece to the back of your card box.
Here's a sample I made with some old sale-a-bration paper. I cut the swirl shape on the lid free hand. I ran the lid through my big shot using the polk-a-dot texture plate before attaching it to the box.
I saw this at our local stamp store and thought it was the cutest idea. You need a pair of flip flops. I used the largest pair I could find and cut them shorter with a pair of scissors and sanded the rough edge with a sanding block (I didn't want my pages to be long and skinny). I used the daisy die to make the flower.
Trim a scrap rectangle of paper or cardstock to establish how large your scrapbook will be. Keep trimming the rectangle until it can be hidden by the sole of your flip flop. My rectangle ended up being 6" x 2.5". I used 3 pieces of 6" x 10" cardstock scored every 2.5", accordian folded the pieces and attached them to each other to make one long piece for my album. Attach it to your flip flops using sticky strip.
Save your scraps of window sheets to make a pop up for your matchbox. The piece I used was 2/3" x 2-1/2". Stick it to the inside front of your box. I used a flower for this sample but a pop up sentiment would work well too.
After youve finished your flower fill the box, fold the flower down as shown below and slide the box closed. When you open the box your flower will pop up.
I've been seeing Pizza Boxes everywhere so I'm not sure who to give credit to. I sized this one to fit 3x3 cards and envelopes.
To make the Pizza Box cut a 6” x 11” piece of Regal Rose Cardstock and score @ 1”, 5”,6” and 10” turn and score @ 1” down both long sides.
Cut on each of the score lines along the long sides stopping at the vertical score lines. Fold up like a pizza box and tape the corners with sticky strip.
This is an old project I made last year with the Loonies for Littles kit. There's 5x5 on board journal and an explosion box. One of my customers asked for the pattern for the explosion box so here's the link.

This was one of my favorite swaps. It was made by Chris Kolly and has a little Hershey's Chocolate inside. Isn't he adorable? You can see more of the swaps I received here.
