Stampin’ Up! Sending Cheer Bundle Santa Box by Dawn Olchefske for Stamping with the STARS packaging challenge #DOswts421 #dostamping #HowdSheDOthat #DOstamperSTARS #ChristmasPackaging p
I have to admit, I was having trouble finding my treat packaging mojo.  So I decided to take a trip to Target to get some treat inspiration.  After finding LOTS of fun new treats, I was able to get into the holiday groove.

Stampin’ Up! Sending Cheer Bundle Santa Box by Dawn Olchefske for Stamping with the STARS packaging challenge #DOswts421 #dostamping #HowdSheDOthat #DOstamperSTARS #ChristmasPackaging o
I wrapped up a dark chocolaty coated marshmallow cocoa topper (Favorite Day brand) with a Santa Hat created by using the Sending Cheer Bundle.  I also created an Easy Santa Box to stuff it into.   

  • It’s never been easier to make custom gift tags with the Sending Cheer Dies
  • Make tags shaped like envelopes, stockings, gifts, Santa hat and gingerbread cookies. 
  • The dies even cut a hole for ribbon or twine so you don’t need to cut one out by hand! 
  • You can  also use the accent pieces for holiday cards, and other paper crafts.

 

How'd She DO That? Easy Santa Treat Box

  • Stamps/Bundles: Sending Cheer Bundle (includes Dies)
  • Paper:
    • Real Read (3-1/4" x 8-1/2" score at 3-1/4, 4, 7-1/4 & 8", turn and score at 3/4", scrap for hat/berries dies) 
    • Basic Black (3/8" x 3-1/4", 3/8" square - both for belt) 
    • Basic White (scrap for hat trims and tag dies)
    • Shaded Spruce (scrap for holly leaves die)
    • Holographic Trio Specialty Paper (1/2" square for belt
  • Ink: Tuxedo Black Memento
  • Other: Stampin' Cute & Emboss Machine, Simply Scored, Paper Snips, 1/4" Black & White Gingham Ribbon, Simply Elegant Trim,  Stampin' Dimensionals, Mini Glue Dots, Tear & Tape Adhesive

 

DOstamping Tip Easy Santa Box from Dawn Olchefske #dostamping #HowdSheDOthat #stampinup #ChristmasWrapping

DOstamping Tips:

  • BOX:  score, cut notches and fold box as directed above.  Be sure to add "belt" prior to sealing box.
  • HAT:  die cut Santa hat pieces using scraps - run through Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine all at one.  Assemble hat with glue dots.

DOstamping Tip Sending Cheer Santa Hat from Dawn Olchefske #dostamping #HowdSheDOthat #stampinup #Christmastreats

  • Wrap ribbon around treat.  Threading both ends up through Santa hat (from backside) and tie in a knot.
  • On white scrap, stamp sentiment and die cut.  Attach to treat using silver Simply Elegant Trim.
  • Insert treat into Santa Box.

Stamping with the STARS #330: From My Heart Foil Tin

The DOstamperSTARS are excited to bring you another Inspiration Hop #DOswts330. Today we're showcasing a fun Valentine Treat Inspiration!

#DOswts330 Valentine Treat Packaing Inspiration Hop #stampinup #handmade  #valentinesday #DOswts330 #treatpackacking #dostamperSTARS

For today's Valentine Treat Packaging project, I knew exactly what I'd be creating with...the new Heart Foil Tins

Stinkin' cute Heart Foil Tin make by Dawn Olchefske #dostamping #howdshedothat #stampinup #handmade  #valentinesday #DOswts330 #treatpackacking #dostamperSTARS

So I pulled out some products from the From My Heart Product Suite and started playing around.  It didn't take long for this super cute Heart Foil Tin to come together.  Here's what you need...

How'd She DO That? Heart Foil Tin:

  • Stamps:  Heartfelt Bundle (with Heart Punch Pack - not just 1 punch, but TWO punches!)
  • Paper:
    • Whisper White Thick (scraps for Scallop Heart Punch, and Classic Label Punch) 
    • From My Heart Designer Series Paper (for Heart Punch, (6) 1" x 3" pieces for candy wraps)
    • Heart Doilies
  • Ink: Real Red
  • Other:  Heart Foil Tins, Real Red 3/8" Double-Stitched Satin Ribbon, Whisper White Baker's Twine,  Classic Label Punch, Mini Glue Dots, Stampin' Dimensionals, SNAIL Adhesive

Stinkin' cute Heart Foil Tin make by Dawn Olchefske #dostamping #howdshedothat #stampinup #handmade  #valentinesday #DOswts330 #treatpackacking #dostamperSTARS

DOstamping Tips:

  • For the Heart Foil Tin: 
    • Adhere white scallop heart to Heart Doily.  Then add a couple strips of Snail Adhesive to adhere folded ribbon to.
    • Stamp sentiment on scrap and cut out with Classic Label punch (positioning sentiment on the left).  Adhere under DSP heart punch out (several patterns of hearts to choose from that will match the punch!).
    • Adhere DSP heart/sentiment with Stampin' Dimensionals.
    • Tie a bow in twine and adhere with a Mini Glue Dot.
  • For Candy Wrap:  wrap 1" x 3" piece of DSP around Hershey Nuggets and secure with Mini Glue Dots (6 fit nicely in the tin)

I was giddy when I stood back and gave a look at the completed Heart Foil Tin, for two reasons:

  1. It turned out so stinkin' cute!
  2. It came together very quickly!
  3. Also - when I showed it to my husband, he asked where I got that from.  I said, "I made it".  I was horrified that he thought I bought it!  But also flattered that he thought it looked that good!

If you're looking for something quick & cute to impress your co-workers, crafty friends and more...I highly recommend Stampin' Up!'s new Heart Foil Tins and the From My Heart Product Suite!

Thank you for shopping with me!

Enjoy~Dawn O

The DOstamperSTARS are excited to share Valentine Candy Packaging inspiration with you today!  Our hop with be live at 9am (CT) today.

Stampin' Up! Be Mine Stitched Framelits Window Box (for Dove candy) by Dawn Olchefske for DOstamperstars hop -  #dostamping #howdshedothat #stampinup #handmade #papercrafting #diy #packagingideas #valentine

I was strolling the Valentine candy aisle a few weeks ago and came across these fun Dove Love Notes Caramel & Milk Chocolate Candy. 

Come to discover, when I opened my package, I was able to spell out a couple of words like; kiss & love.  I knew right away I wanted to make some sort of window box packaging.  So, through trial and error, I came up with a cute heart shape window box using the Be Mine Stitched Framelit Dies.

How'd She DO That? tips for DIY Dove Love Notes Candy Box:

Template for Stampin' Up! Be Mine Stitched Framelits Window Box (for Dove candy) by Dawn Olchefske for DOstamperstars hop -  #dostamping #howdshedothat #stampinup #handmade #papercrafting #diy #packagingideas #valentine

  • Crumb Cake (6-1/2" x 3", score at 1/2", 3", 3-1/2" and 6".  Turn and score at 1/2") 
  • Whisper White (scrap for Classic Label Punch) 
  • Window Sheets (2-3/8" x 2-5/8")

  • Use the 2-1/8" x 2-1/4" Be Mine Stitched Heart Framelit to die cut window. 
  • Adhere window sheet with glue dot in each corner.
  • Assemble box with Tear & Tape Adhesive
  • Punch 1/8" hole on each side.
  • Thread ribbon through and tie off each end.
  • Add greeting (punched with Classic Label Punch) with Whisper White Baker's Twine.
  • Fill with Dove Love Notes candy

I forgot to tell you...I'm completely in love with the Be Mine Stitched Framelits Dies (you had me at "stitched"!). 

When you begin to die cut with them, you'll be surprised at all of the clever cutting options there are.  It's definitely a must-have for any papercrafter!  You'll find LOTS of uses for them.  Be sure to add it to your shopping bag today, so you can get started on your Valentine and love crafting.  

Enjoy~Dawn O

Swap Share Saturday: 25 Spooky Night Suite Samples

visit DOstamping Spooky Night Suite Week for lots of Halloween Inspiration #dostamping #stampinup #halloween #packaging #cardmaking #diy

For the last day of my Spooky Night Suite Week, I've got 25 samples to share with you. 

With tattooed cats, witches' hats, growling owls, bubbly potions, rats and more, you'll feel like you're walking through a haunted house.  These spooky-licious Halloween projects come from various swap groups (AB Alumni & DOstamperSTARS), as well as display boards at the Creative Connections event last month. 

Take a stroll, if you dare (insert creepy laugh!)
