Last of 3 ideas with the Friendly Hello Sale-a-Bration bundle; treat box & video

I've been sharing the projects I made on last week's FB Live and this is the last one.  It's a pretty treat box that's actually quite easy to make.

The box above features Pool Party, White & Black colors with a bird & flower accent.  The one below is in Fresh Freesia with Pool Party accents.

Here are both together. I used the same stamps & Designer paper but look how different they are!  Black glittered ribbon vs sheer Pool Party ribbon also makes a difference in the overall look.

Click here to see the Friendly Hello bundle.  It's part of our Sale-a-Bration offering through the end of February, 2022.  It's free with a $100 purchase from my store. I love this time of year when everyone can get something free with their purchase.  Most items are free with a $50 order but there are a few of higher value that are free with a $100 order.

And here is the template & measurements.  Watch the video here or click below to see how to make it from start to finish.

Here's what the box looks like open.  You can fit quite a few small treats inside.  This would be perfect for a Valentine's treat box too.

Below is the video for three projects using this beautiful FREE bundle.  This box is the last project I share.

• Center pop-out Fun fold card with video & free project sheet

  September 8, 2025

  This fun fold card I’m sharing today is super fun to open and to make.  It looks like a normal card from this photo: 

  Save

  But look how it opens!  The center pops out for a nice surprise.  

  Save

  My colors include Cajun Craze, Early Espresso & Basic Beige.  The designer paper is from the Gathering Together pack seen here.  

  This designer paper is part of our Online Exclusives.  To see all of these new items click here.  Or download & save the Download Online Exclusives flyer 

  I used the Branching Out stamp set for the greeting and the fabulous new Traditional Labels dies seen here.  

  In the photo below you can see the scored bridge strip that pops out the center.  To understand how to assemble this card please watch the video below.  It will make sense then!

• Gathering Moments swap; I love creating my own paper!

  September 4, 2025

  ---

  Here’s a pretty card I made for one of the online swaps I joined last month:

  Save

  I used the new Gathering Moments stamp set with the new Traditional Labels dies.

  The card stock colors are Lost Lagoon, Timid Tiger and Very Vanilla.  Inks are Timid Tiger, Lost Lagoon, Pretty Peacock and Pecan Pie.

  After stamping I used a Blending Brush to add Lost Lagoon ink around the edges and on the greeting die-cut too.

  I love creating cards for swaps!  I find it very relaxing to make multiples of my creations.

  Save

  You can see this stamp set here.  It has a set of dies as well.  See the Traditional Labels dies here.  

  Save

  I’ll be sharing many more cards with this pretty new bundle next week.
