Tic Tacs Make The Perfect Gift

 I'll be honest.... I'm not a huge Coca Cola fan, but I AM a huge fan of the limited edition Coca Cola Tic Tacs!!!!  You guys saw my box from last week's feature of Stampin Up's Celebration Tidings Bundle and the SUPER CUTE and easy box.... it fit's the 3.4 oz. Tic Tac jars PERFECTLY!!!  Welp... here's another variation using Stampin Up's jar punch and jar dome!  Psssst.... the "fizz" in the jar was created using the texture stamp from the Gather Together stamp set, the letters spelling "Coke" were inked on a scrap piece of whisper white that was backed with adhesive sheet and then the letters from the Playful Alphabet die set were cut out.... I topped the letters with a coat of Wink of Stella for a sparkle effect (not sure if that translates in my pics below but looks AWESOME in person).  The sequins in the jar shaker dome are currently in the clearance section and are from the retired Peaceful Poppies line... get them while you can, I'm thinking they won't last long!  Here's the link to my ONLINE STORE.  Okay... here you go!


Just to recap the Facebook Live from last week.... the lid was created using the largest label die from the Celebration Tidings bundle.  Once cut out, simply score at 1" on all sides, cut each corner score line up to first intersecting score line to create tabs.  Glue the tabs to each side to create the lid... SUPER EASY!!!

The base of the box was created by scoring a 6 3/8" x 8" piece of Crumb Cake cardstock at 2" on all sides.  Trim all four corners with straight cuts from score line to score line, then on the long sides, cut the score line straight up to intersecting score line to create a triangular tab on all four sides.  Using Tombow liquid adhesive, glue each triangular tab to rectangular side piece to create the box.  Again.... SUPER EASY, 5 minute box to adhere your Coke creation to the top of.  That is a WOW gift.... and don't Tic Tacs always make the best gift????  I mean, besides the fact that you MAY be telling someone their breath stinks.... LOL!  Well, I love receiving Tic Tacs anyway..... HAHAHAHAHA!  Enjoy you guys!

Past 7 Days....

BACK To Halloween.... WHEW!

Okay... BACK to Halloween gifting this week!  We're makin more goody boxes using The Cutest Halloween Bundle again this week, we are also featuring the tags and labels dies from the July - December 2021 Mini Catalog (lovingly dubbed "the holiday mini").  I've got to admit, this bundle really is the cutest and I'm having SOOOO much fun playing with it simply because of how easy it is to work with.  The fact that the punch ALSO punches out the images from the DSP makes this one a super-huge winner for me.  I mean.... three goody projects in under an hour!?!  That's right!  This week's Freebie Friday On A Monday was actually recorded in under 40 minutes!  SO DOABLE to get ready for Halloween gifting!  As always, the link to the free PDF with supplies used and measurements is below the last pic and if you place a $35 or more from my online store (click "Shop With Me" in the banner at the top of this blog) using this week's Host/Hostess code  GHRG

It's An Outrage.... ANOTHER Christmas Project Before Halloween??? You'll Thank Me!

 Okay you guys!  This is the last Words Of Cheer project for the week.  This one features the dies from the Bundle ( CLICK HERE TO PURCHASE ) and is CASED directly from the July-December 2021 Mini Catalog page 20: I just reimagined the card pictured in the catalog as a box... but not just ANY box..... A CRACKER BARREL PECAN LOG ROLL BOX!!!! Here is the list of colors/cardstock used (except for the vellum, it is ALL from scraps... YAY): 1 3/4" x 4 5/8" Vellum, Pool Party, Very Vanilla, Soft Suede and Brushed Metallic Cardstock.  I finished this off with a scrap piece of linen thread even!  THIS is why we keep those scraps!  Honestly... nothing went to waste with this one.  Below is the video on how to make the box.  Normally I wouldn't be posting Christmas projects before Halloween, but COME ON.... this one is SOOOO worth the preview.  Besides, now you can get a head start for Christmas gifting.... PECAN LOG ROLLS FOR EVERYONE!!!
