Birthday Gift Box

This is another box I made after watching a video from Sam Donald (www.pootles.co.uk).  I love that this box is taller and can fit a bottle of lotion or perfume in it. 

Sorry for the terrible photo, my lighting was not very good. Please check out Sam's website, you won't be disappointed!

I made these for my co-workers and they were super easy.  I put 3 Dove chocolate hearts in each bag.

Patterned paper is from Bo Bunny (6 x 6 Valentine pad)

Solid paper is from Recollections

Oval punch is from Stampin' Up!

Sentiment stamp is from Cardz TV Stamps "Happy Days"

Heart stamp is from Close to My Heart

The cute heart and dot clips that I used to close the bags are from Recollections.  I bought them last year on clearance at Michaels and they worked perfectly for my project.

Another Treat Box

Here is another adorable treat box that I learned how to make from Sam Donald in the UK (www.pootles.co.uk).  She is a Stampin' Up! demonstrator and is very talented.  Check out her blog for more great ideas, you won't be disappointed.

Treat Box

I learned how to make this sweet little treat box (2"x2"x2") from watching another video from Sam Donald in the UK (www.pootles.co.uk).  She is a Stampin' Up! demonstrator and is very creative.  Check out her blog, she has so many great ideas.  I want to make more of these but I think the next one will be more colorful instead of the black and gray.

Sorry the photo is not great, it's late and the lighting was not great.  Thanks for stopping by my blog!
