Tag Topper gift box

I have some last minute boxes to share with you today.

These are so cute and so easy to make even

if you don't have a tag topper punch.

Charming 4 You blog.

Sparkling Snowflakes stamp set

Scallop Tag Topper punch

Silver card

Tutti Designs Snowflake dies

Bubblebath and azure afternoon inks

and matching ribbons.

Stash Buster 7

I designed these gift holders a few months back

but only got the chance to make the video!

You just need a 6" x 6" sheet to make one

and they are the perfect size for money or gift card

with a little tag at the back to write on.

This is the back pocket for the tag which you could

add some decoration to if you were inclined.

I have made a bunch to have for a lot of occasions

as that is mostly what we give as gifts now.

You can watch my video tutorial here

Measurements needed to make one

Double sided dsp 2 pieces - 6" x 3"

Score one sheet at 2 1/2"

Score one sheet at 2 1/2", 5 1/2"

Some card to match for decoration

White card for tag - 3 1/4" x 2"

Walk done, hubby heading to golf so

after a tiny bit of housework I will finish off

bits I need for Christmas.

Who has their tree up?

I need someone to give me a shove in that direction!!

Tri fold Folio

I have another stash busting folio to share today.

The tutorial is from Cathy's Garden on YouTube.

I have changed a few things and everything has

been machine stitched which makes it really sturdy.

This one is a tri fold folio.

I have made a notebook for the left side with matching pen.

The pockets, front, back and centre contain a tag.

The centre is a larger notebook and to the right I have

made a little scratch pad with various scraps

stitched together.

You can watch a quick walk through here

Mini Album tutorial

As I had this paper pack out and want to make it disappear asap

I decided to make another mini album.

This one will hold photos of myself and hubby on

our recent travels to Donegal.

I did do a tutorial for this one if anyone fancies having a go.

But here is a quick look at the insides and you can find a link

to the main tutorial under the video on YouTube

or click here.

The spine is done differently and is a method I came across

a while ago on We R Memory Keepers but took it a step

further as I didn't like how it looks inside.

It was another great stash buster though and I am pretty pleased

with the finished book. I now have three minis under my belt!!

Measurements I used

Pages - five pieces at 6" x 4"

score in half and make a 2" slit down middle

Accordian piece - 12" x 2" - score on every 1"

Closures, make 5 - 2 1/2" x 7/8"

Inner pages - make 5 - 4" x 3", fold in half

Cover - 6 1/2" x 4"

score from 3" to 3 1/2" on every notch

Ribbon - two pieces at 7" long

Sounds like a lot of work but I got this album made,

photos printed and decorated in about four hours.

For some reason Blogger is not letting me link  Pammie's Inky Pinkies

in the usual way.

Anyone else struggling with this?

I have been struggling with my eyes this past month so

went for an eye test. Need varifocals apparently!

Fingers crossed I get on with them!!

Have a great weekend everyone.

Sweet Treat Gift Box

My tutorial this week is this little gift box.

It was made to fit my chosen bar but you could pop

something else in there instead.

This is how it looks inside.

I sent these out to my December customers along with a

few other nice little bits.

These bars are low calorie, made with all good ingredients

and vegan friendly!

They are lovely, especially if you like meringue.
