A Split Top Box for Christmas

Sometimes it is fun to make special boxes for special little gifts. Deb Felts is here today sharing this beautiful little split top box with us. The design itself is just lovely and could be made as a gatefold card front and inside just as easily. So pretty, either way.

Deb used our Product of the Week on her project today. Get these sets at 20% OFF through Saturday. Check out the sale details at the end of this post.

This is the box closed - showing where it splits open.

This box is sized so that it will easily accomodate a set of A2 sized cards.

O Christmas Tree (tree, sentiment)

God Will Take Care of You (music)

Fishtail Sentiment Banners (to cut sentiment)

Ink Drops Candy (gold veined paper)

Grunge Light (slightly mottled solid color papers)

Seam Binding - Christmas Sampler

1.5" Sheer Glitter Dot - Gold

Another view of this lovely box, beginning to open.

Box opened on the right.

Box fully opened - and what a lovely inside!

Christmas Joy (ornament stamp/die)

O Christmas Tree (sentiment)

Thanks so much, Deb, for this fabulous little gift box!!!

Find the Split Top Box Tutorial here.

And in Deb's own words, this is the only modification she made:

I followed the tutorial except for the ribbon hinges...I cut and scored a piece of paper the length of the bottom + the two sides instead, and adhered it to the inside of the "doors".

Keep Christ in Christmas

Yes! Jesus is the reason for the season. We here at Stamp Simply love to proclaim that message throughout the Christmas season. In all the hustle and bustle of the holidays we so often get wrapped up in all we have to do, places to go, things to get checked off those lists. Let us send out gentle reminders of the real reason for the season. Let us slow down, breathe and enjoy the here and now with true reflection on why we are celebrating!

Our lovely card today from Karen Letchworth does just that! Simply made using our current Product of the Week, it beautifully portrays the message worth sending! Get 20% OFF our Product of the Week through Saturday. Be sure to read all the sale details at the end of this post.

A simple make, simply lovely and flat for mailing - total WIN!

Old World Rustic Charm for Christmas

Old world rustic charm has always been near and dear to my heart. Esther Asbury is with us today sharing this lovely rustic Christmas card in beautiful shades of blues and brown. Though non-traditional colors for Christmas, they are just gorgeous on her card.

Esther used both stamp sets and the die set featured this week as our Product of the Week at 20% OFF. It's a wonderful pairing of products that offers options and fun galore for the holiday and winter seasons. Be sure to read all the sale details at the end of this post.

Designed as a Christmas card, with a simple swap of sentiment this lovely card would be perfect for use all winter long!

Note that Esther stamped the tree throughout the card, but she used the die for that tree in a totally independent fashion, NOT cutting the stamped trees but rather cutting the tree opening within the card, placing designer paper beneath, then cutting another tree from coordinating designer paper and placing it atop the opening/askew.

I absolutely LOVE this look and her creative use of a coordinating stamp and die!

O Christmas Tree (stamped and die cut trees)

Wonder of Christmas Sentiments (sentiment)

Darling Deer (die to cut deer)

Small stars were die cut - any small star dies will work!

All of the designer paper Esther used is digital that she printed.

Thank you so much, Esther, for this most interesting and lovely Christmas card filled with that nostalgic and old world rustic charm!
