SAVI Sunday 45 - Stamping & Various Inspirations

Todays episode is geared around the Love You Always Suite Collection and the TREAT BOXES

So I have to admit, I had trouble putting these boxes together.  Join my Facebook page Stamp with Lisa Brown and check out the replay from my Wednesday January 13th Live.  Ugh!  I just could not figure it out and to be honest, being on a live video did not help.  Ha! Ha!

I figured it out and did a quick video for you all to know how too.  It is actually quite easy once you know how.  I also created a another box using more of the fabulous Love You Always Specialty Designer Series Paper and Forever & Always Bundle.  Both are in the Suite Collection.  

To cover the box sleeve, I cut two (2) pieces of Specialty Designer Series Paper to 1-3/8 x 4" and then two (2) pieces 2-5/8 x 4"

This video will show you how I formed the Treat Box and then decorated.  Make sure to keep reading to see my other projects and A TIP!

Here are my projects from my Wednesday, January 13th Live:  

• TIP: 
  • cut your DSP into 4 x 12" strip
  • cut your pieces to decorate the treat box
  • use the left over piece to make a coordinating card!
• You can decorate 3 treat boxes and make 3 coordinating cards out of one 12x12 DSP

• Basic Black card base 5-1/2 x 8-1/2"
• True Love DSP cut 4-1/8 x 5-3/8"
• Love You Always SPDP 3-1/2 x 4"
• Words stamps on Basic White 3/4 x 2-3/4"
• Black Heart came from the heart die cut I put on the box

Welcome 2021!  And my first SAVI (stamping & various inspirations) Sunday Video of the new year.  I hope you rang in the New Year in a quiet and fashion, just like I did.  My hope is that we all have a better 2021 and I am anxious to see what it will bring. 

Who is with me on being a little old fashioned?  I love using paper calendars/organizers.  To me, there is nothing like being able to quickly flip through some pages to find what I am looking for and seeing is it written out.  I am just old fashioned when it comes to that.  The organizers I purchase have a clear front pocket so I decided to do some easy decorating and show off some brand new, upcoming Stampin' Up products!

New Products used available January 5, 2021: 

• Golden Garden Designer Specialty Acetate # 154557
• Fine Art Floral Designer Series Paper # 154558
• Fine Art Ribbon # 154561

(can't link pictures before January 5th of new products....so coming soon!)

Starting January 5, 2021 is our 2021 January - June Mini Catalog and Sale-a-Bration.  Keep watch for links to those items and catalogs on that day!

1. The Acetate and DSP paper are cut to the same size. 
2. The acetate is laid over the DSP and lines up perfectly to the DSP images.  How cool is that. 
3. I die cut 2021 out of Gold Foil using the Playful Alphabet Dies and glued to the DSP
4. Take an approximately 13" piece of ribbon, tie to top spin
5. Slide on an Antiqued Slide Element and tie a know at end of ribbon 

This was just another fun way to use Designer Series Paper.  I will enjoy seeing it every time I pull out my calendar.

Welcome to my SAVI Sunday - Episode 41:  Candle Gift Holder

Here is a unique gift holder for the holidays, or any occasion.  Lots of my friends and family love candles and what a great little gift or stocking stuffer.  This one here is going to co-workers and features a candle from a local store from here in North East Ohio, Root Candles.  You should check them out.  If you live local, their store is a must see!

Here is what you need to create this gift box:

• 2 pieces of Merry Merlot cardstock cut to 7-1/2 x 11"
• score both pieces of cardstock the same:
  • on 11" side, score at:  3", 6-1/2", and 8-1/4 (then quarter turn counter clockwise)
  • on 7-1/2" side, score at:  3-1/2" and 7"
• fold paper back on top score line and make tiny score marks along the fold
• tiny score marks are at 1-3/8", 2-1/8", 4-7/8" and 5-5/8"
• we will need 4 pieces of Designer Series Paper each 3-1/4" x 3-1/4".  I used Plush Poinsettia Plush Paper to decorate outside of box
• Tag:  Whisper White cardstock 1" x 2-3/4
• Tag:  Merry Merlot cardstock 1-1/4" x 3"

Now you have to watch my VIDEO to see the rest of the scoring and cutting instructions. 

I have to give credit to blogger Darby over at "Rejoice and Create" for this fabulous idea.  I just loved, what she calls a flare top gift box, that I wanted to try for myself.  Darby have a diagram of the cut and score instructions too.

The holiday season is upon us and who doesn't need some stocking stuffers?  I have these little square fabric Christmas baskets for my nieces and nephew that I fill each year because... Santa comes to Auntie's house too!  I like to fill with a few small items like a pair of socks, hair ties for the girls, a gift card, and a little bit of candy.  One year I did a hot cocoa theme with hot cocoa packets, candy canes, a cute Christmas mug, some Hershey Kisses sprinkled in and a gift card for Starbucks.  Yes Starbucks... the kids like their smoothies and so it is a treat for them.

Today's project is this awesome Double Hershey Bar holder.  These are great for any theme really... just change up your designer series paper, colors and accessories.  But seeing as these will be going in the kids Santa baskets, I kept with the Christmas theme.

I featured the Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper and Warm Hugs Bundle for the first one.  Let's take a look:

Is that not the cutest holder?  Who wouldn't love 2 Hershey Bars!  And they are really easy to make and I'll make it easier by giving you all the measurements.  Just watch my video below to see how I put them together. 

But first, here is another one that I make with the Snowflake Splendor Designer Series paper, the So Many Snowflakes Dies, along with the gems, glimmer paper and ribbon which you can get in a complete product suite called Snowflake Splendor.  My card base color is Balmy Blue. 

Here is what you will need to cut and score for the basic holder:

• Card stock:       7-1/8 x 8-1/4
  
  • Score on the 7-1/8 side at:   2-1/4, 2-5/8, 3, 5-1/4 and 6
  • Score on the 8-1/4 side at:  1, 1-3/8, 6-7/8 and 7-1/4

• Card stock:       2 pieces cut to 2 x 5-1/2
  • score both on the 2" side at 1/4 and 5/8

• Designer Series Paper: 
  • 2 pieces cut to 1-1/8 x 5-1/4 (pocket covers)
  • 1 piece cut to 2-1/8 x 5-1/4 (front cover)
  • 1 piece cut to 1 x 5-1/4 (front flap... rounded corners)  

Here's my YouTube Video to see how this all comes together:

Thank you to "Mixed Up Craft" for the idea!
