3D Thursday Blog Hop - Altered Stampin' Up! Pizza Boxes

Surprise!  Since May has 5 Thursdays in it, that means an extra week of craftiness for you!   Our 3D Thursday Team has prepared a fun little Blog Hop featuring Stampin' Up!s Mini Pizza Boxes.  The four of us each have come up with a different way to decorate or alter the boxes.  (Jenn was unable to hop with us, so there are 3 stops.)  We have included dimensions, products and tools used so you can recreate each one.
So on with my project.
C is for Cookie!
I chose a Cookie Monster Theme for my box.
 This box would be just as cute without the added hand with cookie, but I wanted to add a bit more to my basic Cookie Monster.  The hand worked out just as I had envisioned.  I added a mini velcro dot to hold the hand w/cookie to the box.
The boxes are food safe with nice slick insides.  However, I decided to put my cookies in a small cello bag before placing it inside my box.
Using the "Seaside" Embossing Folder, I thought gave a little texture to Cookie Monster.  After running my cardstock through the Big Shot with the folder, I used the backside emboss of the paper, that way the emboss didn't stick out and was more subtle.  I love how the Velcro dot gives dimension and depth to his hand.
Thanks for visiting today and I hope I have inspired you to think "outside" the box.  Debbie Henderson over at Debbie's Designs is your next stop. Make sure you finish out the hop to see all of the creativity.  Click on the NEXT button below to visit Debbie.

Here's the supplies and measurements:

SUPPLIES:
Stampin' Up! Mini Pizza Box, 2 1/2" Circle Punch, 1 3/8" Circle Punch,  1" Circle Punch (for bite out of cookie), 3/4" Circle Punch, Paper Trimmer, Big Shot, Seaside Embossing Folder, Paper Snips, Early Espresso Stampin' Write Marker, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Mini Velcro Dot

CARDSTOCK:
Pacific Point - cut (2) 3 7/16" x 3 7/16", (4) 15/16" x 3 7/16" (Emboss each piece of Pacific Point at an angle.)  This gives you the basic box coverage.  I freehanded his arm so there is no pattern for it.

3D Thursday - Easy Origami Treat Holder

3D Thursday is here with a super simple little Treat Holder made from one piece of 6" x 6' Designer Series paper.  Be sure to print off the FREE directions for this project at the end of my post.  This week it's my turn to be crafty.
I fell in love with Stampin' Up!s new Garden Impressions 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper Pack as soon as I saw it and wanted to find a way to showcase it.  This was the perfect little project.
The treat pouch can hold a cookie or other fun treat and goes together in minutes.  Since the project uses the complete piece of 6" x 6" piece of DSP there is no cutting involved in the basic project.
 I use one of our Clear Envelope Bags and the seal off of the top making it a cello bag to add my cookie to.  I used some of our pretty new Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon to close the top of my bag with.
I hope you've enjoyed my quick and easy project for this week.  Now if you would like you can print the FREE directions below and make your own Treat Holder.
Have a crafty day!

3D Thursday - Under The Sea Treat Basket

Happy Thursday everyone!  This weeks project is a cute Treat Holder created by Jennifer Gulch over at Twins and Twine.  Further down in the post you will have access to FREE directions to the fun project.  So let's get started.
The treat basket that Jennifer created actually has four little pockets in it so it will hold lots of goodies!  Jennifer used some new Stampin' Up! goodies available to customers June 1st.  But if you are a demo you can purchase them now.   (A perk for being a demonstrator)
Here is a top view of the basket so you can get an idea of all the pockets.  Don't you just love that paper shred?  It's called Sweet Soiree Ready Shreddie and it's available in our Occasions Catalog.
The sides are decorated with shapes stamped and or cut out using the Sea of Textures Stamp Set and Matching Framelit Dies Under The Sea.
Here's another side view.  And what about those fun little Tranquil Texture Sprinkles!  Gotta get some of those for sure.  It's the perfect finishing touch.  Don't you think.
So if you are ready to make your own fun little Under The Sea Basket just click on the link below for a FREE Project Sheet!

3D Thursday - Sweet Soriee Pull Out Gift Box

I do want to start of by apologizing for the late post.   My father-in-law was diagnosed a year ago with pancreatic cancer and suffered a stroke about a week and a half ago and passed away last Saturday peacefully at his home.  So I'm behind on a few things, again I apologize.
That being said, welcome to 3D Thursday on a Friday night.  Team member Debbie Henderson is the crafty one this week and she has come up with a super cute little pull out gift box!  Further down in the post you will find a link to print out FREE directions to make this sweet box.
And here is the box.  Isn't it pretty?
The beautiful cut on the tag is made by using a die from the Sweet Cake Framelits and the stamped images are all from the stamp set Cake Soriee - you can find both on page 12 of the Occasions Catalog.  Let's take a look inside the box shall we?
The inner box is big enough to hold a gift card, a little Birthday card, and some candy sweetness.
and a closer look at the inside of the pull out box.
Here is a picture of the sweet little Birthday card.  Isn't the little metal embellishment cute?
One last look at the whole gift set together.  This would make a great Mother's Day gift box as well, just by changing the sentiment stamp.  Maybe even use the FREE instruction sheet to make a Christmas box?  So you have waited long enough and as promised here is the link to the FREE instructions with supply list.
If you would like to order any of the supplies listed please be sure and visit my online store for your shopping pleasure.  As always thanks so much for stopping by and have a crafty day!

3D Thursday - Stamp Case Organizer

Welcome to this week's FREE 3D Thursday's post.  This week it's my turn to get crafty.   I've been making some Organizers using our Stamp Cases for craft fairs.  With Mother's Day right around the corner as well, I thought what a perfect project to make.  If you have ever wanted to make one but didn't have measurements you are in luck as further down in the post you can click on a link to print off Free directions!  Let's get started!
 For my project I chose to use the colorful Coffee Break DSP, along with the matching stamp set and framelits dies.  The empty stamp cases can be purchased in a set of four.  The matching pen is super easy to make using RSVP pens.  All you have to do is unscrew the end and roll up apiece of DSP and slip it in.  The pens can be purchased at any regular store chain.
On the inside I added a notebook that I altered and attached with Velcro Dots so it could be removed.  To the left is a calendar and you can order those online from Vippies.  I also added an envelope made from using Stampin' Up!s Envelope maker.  You could slip a Star Bucks gift card or another gift card inside it.
I finished my project with a couple of sweet little tags made using the Coffee Cafe stamp set and matching Framelits.  I tied them together with a Linen Thread Bow and then onto a Pear Pizazz Shimmer Ribbon that was wrapped around and tied into a bow.  I hope you have enjoyed my project today.  Now below you will find the FREE Printable Directions to make your own!
Thanks so much for stopping by.  I hope you enjoyed this week's project.
