3D Thursday Blog Hop Featuring SU Mini Paper Pumpkin Boxes

 

Hello!  Since there are five Thursdays in October it's time for a Team Blog Hop.  For this Hop we will be featuring the SU Mini Paper Pumpkin Boxes.  If you have been following the Hop in order you have just arrived from Nicolle's Blog.  Didn't she come up with a Wow! idea using the box?

Now its my turn to share.

Oh how I love making fun Halloween Treat Boxes so... I decided to make 

a Monster Treat Box out of the Mini Paper Pumpkin Box.

Here's a picture of what the mini boxes look like to begin with.

Punch Art is also one of my favorite things to work with.  Using Embossing Folders, Circle Punches and the new mini Acorn Punch I made him come alive.

Fill him up with candy...

Shut him back up and he is ready to delight any grandkid or friend. 

 Now it's time to hop over to Debbie's Blog and check out her Wow! version of the altered Mini Paper Pumpkin Boxes.  Just click on the link below.   I have also added supplies and a few measurements below the link to help you make a version of my monster box.  Be sure and come back and grab them later.

Tip: when cutting out window, just add a bit of Snail to the biggest piece of Bermuda Bay CS and attach it to box top. Run through BS using Rectangle Die.  You will have to play around to find the right sandwich.  It will not cut all the way through the box. So take CS piece off and use scissors to cut out the imprinted shape.  Good luck!

Grandsons Birthday Cards

Our Grandsons turned eight in July. I can not believe how fast the time has gone by. I always enjoy making them each a unique card to each of their liking. ALthough they are triplets they each have very different personalities and likes. I hope you will enjoy looking at their cards.

I'll start with Reid's card since he was the first born.  Reid loves to play the Nintendo Switch.  I found a great card to case from Pinterest and just changed the number.

Cade is the middle man and he loves Pokemon.   Found a fun card on Pinterest and made it my own.

Jace is the youngest by about 3 minutes.  Jace enjoys riding his dirt bike.

Since his was a bit plain or so I thought I added eight candles to the indie of the card.

Thanks for stopping by today and looking at what I've been up to.

3D Thursday - Patriotic Pinwheels!

Happy Thursday, everyone!  I have a fun project for you, just in time for the 4th of July! Teammate Nicolle Belesimo was at the craft table designing for us this week.  You can find more of her craftiness over at Ellocin Designs.  Nicolle designed these super cute Patriotic Pinwheels!  Let's check it out.

These pretty pinwheels will make a great decor piece as we settle into the month of July next month.  (That's crazy how is that even possible?)  It's been such a crazy year for everyone, I do hope we can all just relax a little on the 4th and be thankful.

Nicolle used a star stamp from the stamp set So Much Happy and Cherry Cobbler and Misty Moonlight Ink to stamp the stars onto her DSP.

 By using the 6 x 6 DSP Paper stack no need to cut the paper down, it's already done for you.  Just cut in at the sides like the directions show.  I will note that these do not spin so are only for decor.  But wouldn't they be cute in summer colors too!  I hope you have enjoyed today's project!  now just click on the link below to print them off and make your own!

3D Thursday - Patriotic Mini Paper Pumpkin Box

Good morning crafty friends!  This week it was my turn at the create desk.  And since 4th of July is right around the corner I thought it would be fun to create a Red, White, & Blue project.  Below is what I came up with and if you would like directions to it you are in luck because they are FREE.  All you have to do is click on the link at the bottom of my post to access them.

 This project goes together pretty quick and easy.  The base is actually a Mini Paper Pumpkin Box which you can find in the new Stampin' Up! catalog.

 I used some of the new In Color DSP named Misty Moonlight to cover my box.  Streamers of new and retired ribbons are attached at the back of the box.

I think the funnest part of the project was using our new Foam Adhesive Sheets!  Oh, so fun!  I attached some of a sheet to the back of a Whisper White scrap and cut out my Stitched Star to be attached to my box.  I love the feel and depth it gave to it!  Now if you would like to make one of these fun little decor boxes just click on the link below to print out FREE directions!  If you are in need of some new products I'ld love for you to shop my online store by simply clicking on the shop button in my sidebar.  Thanks for stopping by today!
