How To Make Gift Holders With the Pretty Pillowbox Dies

Hello Stampers, Bonjour!

The weather is beautiful these days here in Ontario Canada. Mornings are cool and the sun is so warm during the day. The leaves have turned and I cannot admire enough the view on my daily walks with Riley, our golden retriever.

Which brings me to my project with fall colors as my inspiration. I wanted to share with you today one of the possibilities with Stampin’up!’s Pretty Pillbox Dies. I created 3 pillow box envelops to add different gifts in them. In one of them, I added a gift card. In another, a sweet love note. And my last was a treat, chocolate. Who doesn’t love chocolate?

Stampin’up! neutrals Designer Series Paper Assortments are perfect for fall creations.

How to make these adorable Pillow Box Envelops:

Die Cut two Pretty Pillowbox pieces of cardstock (one dsp and one coordination piece of cardstock) using your Stamp’Cut & Emboss Machine
Fold at the score line the cardstock piece that has been cut into the pillowbox shape
With the paper trimmer, cut at the score line the dsp piece of pillowbox shape
Adhere with the multipurpose glue the larger piece of dsp to the larger cardstock portion of the pillow box (the back part) (in the image below it’s the dotted dsp)
Adhere with the multipurpose glue the smaller piece of dsp to the smaller cardstock portion of the pillow box (the front part) (in the image below it’s the lined dsp)
Add a beaded line of multipurpose glue on both sides of the folded pillow box where the pillow box sandwiches together, leave enough space to be able to insert your treat, gift card or love note
Embellish as you wish (for the projects used today, Hello Harvest Bundle was used, disponible en Français, voir plus bas )

Tip: Use different sides of the dsp to obtain different designs. Example, the dotted and the lined designs.

Create simple envelops or decorate them with lots of embellishments. The sky is the limit…

Who loves a challenge?

I challenge you to use this color combination to create your fall projects. Use them all or just a few of the colors. The possibilities are endless. You can even create the 3 different pillow boxes below.
