Coffee Gift Card Box!

Hi everyone! Thank you for all the very kind words, comments and emails you all sent me after my last blog post. This crafty community fills my soul with love and joy. Thanks for being you! I'm so grateful to know that people care. Sometimes that is all a person needs, right? XO

Just popping in to share a quick and easy project I made last weekend! A Starbucks gift card holder box all jazzed up! 

I haven't had time to stamp this week - still super busy at work... But, I had a fun day with my friend Sharon (CLICK HERE FOR HER BLOG) stamping all day on Saturday. Her sister is one of my dearest friends too, so what a nice day we all had! I needed to make a gift card holder for someone and I knew Sharon would be able to hook me up with a cool box. She used THIS TUTORIAL to make a neat pop out box...and then I decorated it. Good teamwork! (Thumbs up)

 

 

 

So now I'm pretty sure I need this bow die from Stampin' Up! The paper is from American Crafts - perfect with the little coffee cups! I just took a three inch strip of patterned paper and wrapped it around the box. Then I made the bow and glued it on the top! Easy-Peasy! 

 

 

 

Then I used some SUPER cute new stamps from Lawn Fawn to make the tag to go on it... Colored with a few Copics... The stamp set has matching dies too! Perfection!

 

 

 

Here is the inside of the box with the Starbucks card inserted. Sorry I didn't take a better photo, but you get the general idea! COOOOL, huh? 

 

 

 

Assembly line... The bow comes in pieces and then you just glue it together.

 

 

 

My images are stamped in brown ink for a coffee tone!

 

 

 

 

Okay guys, I hope to get in some Fall crafting this weekend! And, next week I have a really fun thing that I'm a part of and I'm super excited to share on Wednesday. I hope your week is going well and I'll catch ya soon! XO

Hi Wanda! How clever is that box!? Love it. And your papers and tag match it perfectly! I'm pretty sure I need that SU bow die too! But I've been skipping card class, ugh, for 4 months because I'm a bit burned out all around. Physically and mentally. And I've wanted to spend my crafty money with some other companies, that I want to explore because I get bored. But I always love reading your posts and seeing your wonderful projects, even if you don't have time to stamp much. It's the thought that counts and what a wonderful crafty day you had with friends.
