Dragonfly Garden Seed Packet Holder

March 24, 2021 ~ Jeanie Stark ~ 24 Comments

Today is my birthday and I have a gift for you! I’m sending a birthday “favor” to every customer who places an online order this month. I love to send thank you cards and little gifts to my customers to show my appreciation for supporting my Stampin’ Up! business. I thought this would be the perfect little gift for spring.

Each month I offer exclusive tutorials for my customers. This month I am featuring Dragonfly Garden. The sentiment I chose from this set goes so well with my seed packet card.

The Flower & Field Designer Series Paper (from Sale-A-Bration) was perfect for the Daisy and Poppy seed packets below.

Here’s a look at the Dragonfly Garden bundle.

I love punches and the Dragonfly Punch not only coordinates with the stamp set, you can also punch dragonflies from the Dandy Garden Designer Series Paper.

Another Perpetual Birthday Calendar & Free Tutorial

February 11, 2021 ~ Jeanie Stark ~ 20 Comments

I have a problem…I can’t stop making these Perpetual Birthday Calendars and boxes! It’s time to get out that designer series paper you’ve been hoarding and showcase your favorite patterns. What better project to make than one that will be used year after year. Yesterday I shared 3 different calendar boxes. (If you missed that post you can view it HERE.) Here’s another one.

Today’s design features the Paper Blooms Designer Series Paper. (You can get this paper for FREE with a qualifying purchase through the end of February). I used the Pierced Blooms Dies to fill the envelope I cut from the Snail Dies. (This set is worth it just for that envelope die!!!!) I love this color scheme of Navy, Seaside Spray, and Basic White.

These are really quite easy to make. You just print, cut/punch, and adhere to patterned paper and/or cardstock of your choice. There’s so many different ways to decorate the front of the boxes! I can’t wait to give these to my friends and family. I have two friends with birthdays this month. There’s even room to fit a set of homemade birthday cards in the box (which I love to give as gifts). The recipient just needs to fill in the names of family members & friends beside their birth date on the monthly dividers. Here’s the details:

To make the box: Cut cardstock 9 1/4 x 9. Score along the 9 1/4″ side @ 4 1/2 and 6. Score along the 9″ side at 1 1/2 and 7 1/2. Cut in on the 4 1/2″ and 6″ score lines up to the 2″score line on both sides. Notch the tabs as shown below. Fold and burnish along score lines. Add adhesive to the notched tabs and the smaller ends which will be the front of the box. *I adhered the tabs to the outside of the back of the box then folded the front flaps back over the tabs. (I did this because I didn’t want the tabs on the inside to interfere with pulling the cards in and out.)

Stampin' Up! Perpetual calendar box tutorial provided by Jeanie Stark - visit juststampin.com

I cut the sides of the box at an angle from the front to the back but you could leave it straight if you prefer.

Stampin' Up! Perpetual Birthday Calendar Box tutorial - visit juststampin.com for details and more - Jeanie Stark StampinUp

The cardstock layer on the front of the box measures 3 x 5 3/4. I cut the Designer Series Paper 1/8″ less (2 7/8 x 5 5/8).

The monthly dividers measure 4 x 5 1/2 and are cut from Thick Basic White cardstock. I adhered the same size patterned paper to each then adhered the calendars. I punched 24 cardstock ovals using the Double Oval Punch. I printed the months on Basic White cardstock and punched using the smaller of the Double Oval Punch.

I adhered the months to the ovals then adhered to the front of the divider. I lined up the other oval and adhered to the back of the divider. I wanted it to be sturdy to pull out year after year. *Tip: Once you get the first 3 months lined up along the left, center, and right it is quick & easy to finish the rest by lining up the blank cards in front of these and using January, February, and March as a guide for where to place ovals.

I hope you enjoyed the different ideas for these boxes. If you have any questions feel free to email me. You can click on the print friendly version for my monthly calendars below.

Perpetual Birthday Calendar

*Note – If you plan to mail these, the box and a set of birthday cards fit nicely in the Paper Pumpkin boxes! I always save my Paper Pumpkin boxes and turn them inside out to send packages.

It’s time to place your order for my February Just Stampin’ Card Kit and 3D Project Buffet To Go!

Sweet Strawberry Slider Treat Box Tutorial

January 14, 2021January 30, 2022 ~ Jeanie Stark ~ 7 Comments

Yesterday I shared two versions of a sweet slider treat box for some foil covered chocolate hearts turned in to strawberries.
Stampin' Up! Sweet Strawberry and Berry Delightful handmade treat boxes - Jeanie Stark StampinUp
I had several people ask where I found the foil wrapped “strawberries”. I purchased the chocolate hearts from Amazon. You can click HERE for the link. Thanks to the Strawberry Builder Punch the transformation was quick and easy! I stamped the strawberry stem from the Sweet Strawberry Stamp set on Granny Apple Green cardstock with Garden Green Ink. I punched it out and added it to the top of the chocolate heart with Mini Glue Dots. Voila!
Here’s a tip when using the Strawberry Builder Punch (or any builder punch): Cut cardstock in strips to stamp and punch. That way you don’t waste cardstock punching the other pieces each time.
Stampin' Up Strawberry Builder Punch Tip - visit juststampin.com for stamping tips, project inspiration, and more! - Jeanie Stark StampinUp
Today I have all the details to make these slider treat boxes. The box is made the same for both projects.
Stampin' Up! Sweet Strawberry and Berry Delightful handmade treat boxes - Jeanie Stark StampinUp
To make the box: Cut cardstock (Garden Green) 3 x 5 1/2 and score at 3/4″ on all four sides. Cut along the horizontal side up to the score line to form the tabs. Cut notches as shown and add adhesive to the tabs to adhere box together.

*Optional – I added a DSP layer (1 1/4 x 4) inside the bottom of the box.

To make the fold over belly band:

Cut cardstock (Garden Green) 7 1/4 x 4 1/8. Score @ 3/4, 2 3/8, 3 1/8, 4 3/4, 5 1/2.
With the Layering Circles Dies, cut a 1 1/8 circle from the cardstock (*see photo below).
Stamp the strawberry vine in Garden Green Ink.
Add a 5/8 x 4 strip of DSP between the score lines below the stamped image.

Stampin' Up! Strawberry Slider treat Box tutorial - visit juststampin.com for directions, inspiration, tips, and more - Jeanie Stark StampinUp

Layer the Circle Dies and cut both at once. Adhere to the circle on top.
On the backside of the circle add a 1 1/2 x 2 piece of Window Sheet with glue dots.
Adhere a 1 1/2 x 4 piece of DSP along the bottom of the box. Stamp sentiment in Real Red on 3/4 x 2 1/2 piece of Whisper White. Adhere with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Apply a strong adhesive (Stampin’ Seal or Tear & Tape) to the top of the box. Fold this piece over and adhere below the first score line.
Adhere another 1 1/2 x 4 piece of DSP on the inside. Stamp sentiment in Real Red Ink on a scrap of Whisper White and fussy cut out. Adhere to DSP layer.
Stamp two strawberry outlines in Poppy Parade ink on Whisper White. Stamp filler image in Poppy Parade stamping off first. Punch with Strawberry Builder Punch. Add stamped stem with glue dot and adhere one beside the sentiment on the inside.
Stamp flowers with Flirty Flamingo and punch. Adhere to stamped vine with Mini Glue Dots. Add Heart Resin Dots to the centers.
Slide in the box with candy and wrap Real Red ribbon around the box and tie a bow. Adhere stamped and punched strawberry to ribbon with a Stampin’ Dimensional. *The ribbon will slide on and off the box to open.

Here’s a look at the open and closed view side by side.

It’s easy to just slide the candy box out from either side of the treat holder.

The only difference between this “fold over” version and the stand up version (below) is the size of the cardstock for the belly band. It has one less score line and it a little taller.

The slider box, flowers, and circle window are made the same.
Here’s the measurements for the belly band and DSP:

Garden Green Cardstock: 7 1/2 x 4 1/8 scored at 3/4, 2 3/8, 4 3/4
Berry Delightful DSP: 5/8 x 4, 1 7/8 x 4

All the supplies to make this project are listed below. When you purchase $100 or more this month you can choose to receive the Berry Delightful Designer Series Paper for FREE! It comes in a bundle with the Berry Blessings stamp set. Here’s a look at the set.
