Blooms & Bliss Designer Series Paper

Yesterday I shared the 3 new Sale-A-Bration items. My favorite new item is the 6″ x 6″ Glimmer Paper Assortment Pack! I need a lot of thank you cards so I decided to play with the new glimmer paper to make some cards.

Stampin Up Clean & Simple Bold Butterfly Thank You card ideas - Jeanie Stark StampinUp

I have used this simple card design before. You can change the DSP and choose a variety of sentiments then cut them out using the Stitched Shapes Framelits and the Layering Ovals Framelits. I used DSP from Floral Boutique, Succulent Garden, and Blooms & Bliss. The DSP is cut at 3 1/4 x 3 1/2 and matted with a layer of cardstock that measures 3 3/8 x 3 5/8. I chose colors to coordinate with the new glimmer paper from Sale-A-Bration…Bermuda Bay with Night of Navy, Sweet Sugarplum with Old Olive, and Mint Macaron with Island Indigo.

The sentiments are from Suite Sayings, Suite Sentiments, and Dragonfly Dreams though many others would fit as well. I used the Bold Butterfly Framelits to cut the butterflies from each of the different colors of glimmer paper. The 6 x 6 Glimmer Paper Assortment Pack comes with 12 sheets; 4 each of 3 colors (Bermuda Bay, Mint Macaron, Sweet Sugarplum).

Welcome to my ABC’s of Stampin’ series. You really didn’t think I was going to come up with something that starts with X did you? When I teach the letter X to my Pre-K students we say “X as in Fox“. I almost went with sharing the Foxy Friends Suite today but I love to make boxes. As you know, I like to give little gifts to the hairdressers where I sell my cards to raise money for Breast Cancer Awareness. This is what I made for the ladies this month.

Mini Box idea from Sam Donald of Pootles Papercraft

I got this idea from the eXtremely talented Sam Donald (Pootles.com). Check out her YouTube video below to see how to make it.

Here’s a few photos and measurements for the mini box. The cardstock measures 4 1/2 x 7 1/2. Use your Simply Scored Scoring Tool and with the long side across the top score at 1 1/2, 3, 4 1/2, and 6 inches. With the short side across the top score at 1 1/2 and 3.

See the diagram below (or refer to the video) to see where to cut and apply adhesive. I used Tear & Tape adhesive.

The mini boxes are the perfect size for a Ferrero Rocher Chocolate. Yum! I decorated the sides of my boxes with Blooms & Bliss Designer Series Paper. Each square measures 1 1/4″. The flowers are punched from the Itty Bitty Accents (retired) and adhered with glue dots. You can easily substitute the smallest flower from the Blossom Bunch Punch or one of the many flower choices from thinlits dies. I love the linen thread accent under the flower. I used a Rhinestone Basic Jewel in the center of each flower.

You can also make boxes using the Stampin’ up Gift Box Punch Board, the Curvy Keepsake Box Thinlits, or the Baker’s Box Thinlits Dies. I already shared the Gift Box Punch Board with you (G is for Gift Giving) and the Curvy Keepsake Box (Curvy Keepsake Apples). If you missed those posts you can see them HERE or HERE. You can check out how to use the Baker’s Box Thinlits Dies in this short video.

The Curvy Keepsake Box is so versatile and I have used it many times to put treats in for my students, hostesses, holiday table favors, gifts, etc. Here is an exhibition of some cool projects you can make.

I received this adorable tiny treat box from Ramsey the other day when she came to visit. I love the tag and how she layered the Fruit Stand Designer Series Paper with Real Red cardstock to make it pop! She cut out the strawberry from the DSP and glued it on. How clever! Thank you Ramsey! I love it and can’t wait to try the strawberry jam inside!

I have heard from so many of you about how much you like my ABC’s of Stampin’ series. Thank you so much for all your kind words, support, and encouragement! We are almost done with this series and like you I am a little sad to see it end. But don’t worry because I have an eXciting new series coming up for the month of October!
