Adorable Gift Box
My sister just loves the different handmade boxes, so for Christmas I wanted to make her one to put her present in. I stumbled onto Peanuts and Peppers Papercrafting and she had this adorable box tutorial using the Bigz Mini Milk Carton die for the Big Shot.
Stamp: --
Ink Pad: --
Paper: --
Die: Bigz Mini Milk Carton
Punch: Crop-a-dile or handheld punch
Cut out two pieces from the Mini Milk Carton from the same color paper. Crease all the lines well using a bone folder. Cut away and discard one section, leaving 3 full sections and the tab.
Depending on finished style box, stamp the images on sides and top of box.
Apply tape to the two tabs. Lining up the two pieces carefully, tape them together, pressing down firmly on the tape line.
Each side of the box's top section is folded so that the triangle is pushed in. When finished there will be six tabs that stand out. Using either the crop-a-dial or handheld, punch a hold in each to run ribbon through. Tie box closed and finish decorating.

Sweet Pressed Cookie Stamp
I dug out my favorite cookie recipe I make during the holidays to try with the Sweet Press set from Stampin' Up. It worked so perfect! So exciting to see my go-to recipe work so easily. After such success with my butter cookie I tested out a cream cheese cookie recipe. As you can see, both turned out beautifully. Only problem now is which one to grab when reaching for a cookie! Enjoy the recipes below and let me know how yours turn out.
