Well it is time again for our Weekly Wednesday create it together video and today I am sharing a fun fold mini purse to hold a single lip balm. This is a super easy project and it is the perfect stocking stuffer. It also works well as a gift for your co-workers, even the men. Everyone needs a little lip balm, right? I am selling these today at a lunchtime craft fair, so wish me luck.

If the video does not load, just click here or the image below.

Project Supplies

  • 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper (DSP)-score at 1-1/4 and 4-3/4″ rotate 1/4 turn, score 2 1/2 & 3-1/2″
  • 2 x 4 strip of coordinating DSP or cardstock-score 1-1/2″
  • Scoring Tool

Happy Stamping!

They are super fast and easy. Check out the video below.

Halloween Ghost Treat Box ~ Weekly Wed. #34

Fall-Halloween-Thanksgiving Cards, Fun Fold Cards, Paper Crafting Ideas, Weekly Wednesday Videos /

Happy Wednesday all. Halloween is only 15 days away and it’s time to start thinking about those special Halloween treats. Every year I try to create something special for my little neighbor friends. I don’t send many Halloween cards, but it is fun to create a special treat box each year. My video features a Halloween Ghost Box, but stay tuned to the end of this post for a fun witch box. I am still having issues with YouTube. If the video does not display click the image below for video. CLICK HERE for my YouTube Channel.

Here are the supplies I used for today’s project.

  • Basic Black CS-(Box) 5 ½ x 7
  • Halloween DSP- 1 ¾ x 7
  • Basic White -(tag) ¾ x 3
  • Spooky Treats Stamp Set-Paper Pumpkin September 2022
  • Memento Black Ink

So I decided to make my second box a little more girly. I used the exact same method for creating the box, but switched out the stamp set. I used the witches feet from Bewitching (retired set) and the witches hat punch (also retired). I think both boxes turned out so stinkin’ cute. So use whatever Halloween stamp set you have or click here to shop for our current Halloween collection.

I hope you have fun creating those special Halloween Treat Boxes. Happy Stamping!

If you think this card looks different than the sample in the video, you are not wrong. I needed a thinking of you card for a friend, so I changed the greeting before I scanned my original. Sorry about that. But hey, it is nice to know that all cards can be modified, right? I just added a 1 x 2-3/4″ piece of crumb cake over my original greeting. I did not pop up my greeting, but that would be an option as well. So many choices! Love it!
