A very quick project this week for 3D Thursday. I often put gifts sets together for Christmas and birthdays with pamper products in them for my daughters and granddaughters. Todays project is an envelope pouch to contain a face mask. I've used the lovely Gingham Cottage dsp and the True Beauty stamp set. Let me show you how I made it.
Materials
1 piece of gingham cottage dsp 8 1/2" square
1 piece of basic white card stock 3 1/2" x 4 1/2"
True Beauty stamp set
Blushing Bride ink
Soft Sea Foam ink
Memento Black ink
Scalloped Contour dies
Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine
Trimmer
Simply Scored
Bone Folder
Multipurpose adhesive
Tear and Tape
Dimensionals
Instructions
Score at 1/2" and 7" on one edge and then turn 90 degrees and score at 1/2" and 4 1/2", fold and burnish all the score lines.
Cut to match the template shown
Put adhesive along the outside of the long tab and bring the opposite side over on top of it to seal. Then add glue to the inside of the bottom flap and bring that up to seal. Add tear and tape along the inside of the top flap to seal when you have filled it.
Stamp a flower on the basic white card and add a sentiment, then die cut with the 2nd largest of the Scalloped Contour dies.
Add to the front of the pouch using dimensionals, add the contents and seal up the flap and the project is complete.

It's a 3D theme for Crafty Collaborations Blog Hop today and I made a pretty magnetic post it note holder to go on my fridge. They are really easy to make and great for craft fairs and small gifts, let me show you how.
Materials
1 piece of grey board (packaging/any thick card will do) 4" x 4"
2 pieces of dsp 4" x 4"
Scrap of basic white for the sentiment
Pastel Pearls
Basic Grey ink
Charming Sentiments stamp set
Double Oval Punch
Magnetic Bulldog Clip (from Stationery Store)
Multipurpose adhesive
Trimmer
3" x 3" sticky note pad
Instructions
You can buy pre cut grey board shapes which I have used in the past, but for this one I have used a piece of the very thick card that comes with some of the speciality papers (this one was in the Detailed Treat Bags to protect them). If you cut this yourself, put an old blade in the trimmer and cut from both sides to get through it.
Add the dsp, I've added a layer to the back and the front.
Stamp a sentiment on the scrap of white card and punch out with the smaller oval, then adhere this to the centre of the covered board at the bottom.
Add the sticky note pad at the top and hold in place with the magnetic bulldog clip.
Add a couple of pearls to the sentiment and it's finished, really quick and easy to make and a great gift too.

The second Stampin' Birds Challenge for this week is a 3D project, I've made a diagonal hinged lid treat box using the lovely new Sweet Sorbet, I wanted to show off one of the new 2022-2024 In-Colours. There are lots of these sorts of boxes on Pinterest and YouTube and I'm not sure where I saw it first. Let me show you how I made it.
Materials
1 piece of sweet sorbet card stock 6" x 4 1/2", scrap for the sentiment
1 piece of sweet sorbet designer series paper 6" x 4 1/2"
Scraps of basic white and gold foil
In-Colour Bakers Twine to wrap around the box
Bough Punch
Flowers & Leaves Punch
Sweet Sorbet ink
Gilded Gems
Trimmer
Simply Scored
Bone Folder
Paper Snips
Shaded Summer stamp set
Flowers of Friendship stamp set
Multipurpose adhesive
Tear and Tape
Mini Glue Dots
Instructions
Score the card stock and dsp at 1 1/2" on all 4 sides
On the dsp, draw a diagonal line as shown on the two outer, centre rectangles. Then cut as shown. Trim the tabs as shown in the photos, this is just to reduce the bulk so doesn't have to be a specific measurement, the card stock version needs two short and two longer (see picture).
Add tear and tape to the tabs on the dsp one as shown and then fold them in the make a box end, making sure that the cut edges line up with the folded edges. The other end is the hinge which will attach to the card stock box.
Add tear and tape to the tabs on the card stock now and make up the end with the shorter tabs. Then before sealing the other end, line up the dsp hinge piece and then fold over the last square piece and seal that end.
The box is now ready to fill with sweets and decorate.
I have tied In Colour twine around the box and tied a bow. Then Punch out a large scalloped oval in sweet sorbet and a smaller white one to stamp on. Stamp a sentiment from Shaded Summer and layer the two together.
Punch out a gold foil bough and stamp and punch out two of the smaller flowers from Flowers of friendship. Tuck the leaves under the twine and the adhere the sentiment label, tucked under the ribbon and just glued at one end. Add the two flowers and then add gilded gems for decoration.
I hope that you like my little box, please pop over and see what Donna and Victoria have made too.
