For this project I used the following supplies

• lunch sack 10 1/2 x 5 1/4 x 3 1/4
• clothespins
• Brew HA HA digital kit by Jan Hosford
• double sided tape
• glue
• ruler
• pencil
• black Stazon ink
• ribbon
• sponge
• transparency sheet
• Sizzix Big Kick
• Nestabilities scallop rectangles
• 7 x 5 1/4 cardstock
• sewing
• Stampin’ Up! stamp set Web Wishes
• Studio G clear stamp set
• chipboard
• rhinestones
• HP Premium Presentation Paper

I first measured my sack and created specific sizes to fit it on the front and flap of the sack.  I printed them out on HP Premium Presentation Paper and cut them out.  To create a window in the sack I used my Sizzix and the scalloped rectangle nestability.

Then I cut a rectangle in the lunch sack slightly larger than the black star paper.

Now cut out a piece of transparency sheet slightly larger than the rectangle in the lunch sack.  Use Stazon ink to stamp image on transparency and apply double sided tape on to the transparency and tape to inside of bag.

Sponge edges of remaining paper with ink.  Fold long strip of paper, sew and glue to sack.  Cut out chipboard and glue paper.  Stamp image on smaller paper and glue to chipboard.  Trace the shape of the clothespin on wrong side of paper and cut out, stamp and glue to clothespin.  Add ribbon to top of clothespin.  Score flap of sack at 1 inch and 2 inches.  Then glue papers to flap and add rhinestones and clothespin to top of sack.

To make a platform for your treats in the sack score a 7 x 5 1/4 piece  of card stock at 1 inch on all sides. Slit on the score lines on both sides and glue according to the pictures below.

Insert to inside of your treat bag and add some yummy goodies!

Supplies

• Kelley Mickus digital kit Click
• clear paint pail
• 3/4″ circle, 1 3/8″ circle, scallop, slot SU! punches and various snowflake punches
• Sizzix SU! Topnote and Circle, Scallop #2 dies
• Coluzzle
• rectangle nestibilities
• Real Red and Old Olive SU! ink
• Real Red and Old Olive SU! CS
• Ribbon and Rhinestones
• glue dots and glue sticks
• Loads of Love SU! stamp
• Studio g clear stamp

First, print out your favorite digital paper and measure your pail.  For my pail it was just over 12″ around and 4 3/4″ high.  Since I can only print out 8.5″ x 11 paper I had to paper piece my pail.  Here’s an example of my first piece of paper.

You will need to cut two holes for your handle, so hold your cut paper up to your pail and use a paper piercer to mark the center of your circle. Then use your 3/4″ circle punch to punch your circles and cut a small slit in the top of the circle. I also used my Topnote Die and rectangle nestibilities to cut out the center for a see through window and the slotted punch to punch holes in the left and right side of the Topnote to run a ribbon through . Now glue this section onto your pail. Once glued, measure the next section. I measure at the top and bottom because everything isn’t always perfectly straight. Glue this section down. Now adjust your ribbon.

On my lid I used the Sizziz Circle, Scallops #2 die cut and the coluzzle to cut out my circle. Stamped a sentiment, inked the edges and glue to lid.  Then added a layered punched snowflake with rhinestone and ribbon to the handle.

To make the peppermint patties I used Studio g clear stamps and the 1 3/8″ circle and scallop SU! punches.  Glue the circle to the scallop and then to the peppermint patty.

I shredded some red cardstock for the bottom of my pail and added my goodies… and here’s my finished Christmas gift!

I’m going to use the below Mini-Envelope Template from Kelleigh Ratzlaff and the Lottie Dottie Add on freebie kit by Pamela Donnis:

Here’s what my scrapped envelope looks like:

1. Print on a piece of cardstock. On mine I chose a different paper that was the same size as the template and printed it on the on the opposite side.  Remember, if you want your colors to look brighter to adjust the contrast.
2. Cut envelope out and sponged ink around the outside and inside & score lines.
3. Grab your 3 1/2 x 2 1/2 piece of vellum and put a small strip of double sided sticky tape along both sides and bottom of the inside of the envelope.

So let’s get started! First here’s the template that we will be using and it is oh-so-easy to make! Thank you, Kerin.  I also will  be using Sugarplum Paperie’s Strawberry Cafe to cover it with.   

When I start a hybrid project I like to measure out how much paper I will need.  For this box we are going to need four 4 x 5 digital papers in two different patterns and I’m also going to use the strawberries elements from the kit, resize them to two different sizes and print them two times so I can pop one layer.  Here are my examples of what I printed:

As you can see, I only printed exactly what I needed to complete my project.

Now, grab your two pieces of thin cardboard and glue the two different patterned papers to each side, like you see here to the left.

I used my Sizzix Big Kick with Stampin’ Up! Top Note die cut to make my label shape.

If you don’t have these supplies I have made a template for you (you will just need to cut it out by hand). 

Now that we have that done we will start on the box.  Grab your box template and follow the instructions for scoring.  You can use these pictures below to help you finish up your box:

And that’s it!
