Storybook Moments Squares

I recently attended Stampin’ Up!’s OnStage in Raleigh, NC. It was such a fun trip! Six members of my team attended, three I had never met, so it was great getting to know them.

OnStage Team Dinner

Of course we had to do some stamping, so we decided on a shoe box swap. If you haven’t heard of a shoe box swap, each of us prepared one project for everyone else to make. It was great fun and everyone participated!

One of my team members, Kathryn, made this cute card for her Shoebox Swap. I loved it so much that we did it in class last month.

I’ve seen this design with other stamp sets, too. It makes such a cute card.

Storybook Moments Suite

I call this a MEGA Suite becuase it has TWO bundles (stamps and dies), TWO sets of Designer Series Paper (DSP), Ribbon and Embellishments! The Storybook Friends Bundle has so many cute animals, and the Storybook Garden Patch Bundle is all about plants and vegetables.

One of my favorite products is the Timeless Plaid DSP that is so versatile!

When I cut the squares (1 1/4″), I was left with a 1″ strip of the DSP, which I cut into 1/2″ strips for the inside of the card. This was a part of Kathryn’s design.

I colored the rabbit with Petal Pink, Crumb Cake, Pecan Pie and Mossy Meadow Blends. I colored the rocks and shrubs with Crumb Cake, Pecan Pie, Mossy Meadow and Ivory Blends.

Storybook Moments Spring Treat

Storybook Moments Sweet Treat

I’m so happy to see signs of Spring everywhere, aren’t you? So, today’s project is a Storybook Moments Sweet Spring Treat that I designed and created.

Storybook Moments Suite Collection

For this sweet treat, I’m using products from the Storybook Moments Suite Collection. I love using Suites because everything is already coordinated for you and you just can’t go wrong.

I call this a MEGA Suite because it has TWO stamp and die bundles, plus TWO different DSP (Designer Series Paper) packs, along with ribbon and embellishments. Throw in some coordinating cardstock and you’re all set to make beautiful projects!

This is a tiny little treat and contains a chocolate carrot. I found the candy at my local dollar store in a mesh bag of eight. I thought they’d make a perfect Spring treat.

How It’s Made

Measurements

Lost Lagoon Cardstock – 3” x 5 ¾”

Basic White Cardstock – ½” x 2 ½”, 1 ¼” x 2”

Storybook Moments DSP – 1 1/8” x 1 ¾”

Instructions:

  1. Score Lost Lagoon on short side at ½” from either side.  Score on long side at ½”, 1 ¼”, 2 ½”, 3 ¼”, 4 ½”.  If you don’t want to see a score line on the back of your project score only from the edge to the first intersecting score line on either side at the 4 ½” mark.
  • On both of the long sides, cut each score line up to the first intersecting score line.  Cut away the four corner sections.  Wedge the edges of the four small flaps and the flap on the end.  Use the smallest Perennial Postage die to cut a window in the 1 ¼” section.  See picture below.
Storybook Moments Sweet Treat Cutting
  • Use bone folder to burnish all score lines.  Fold bottom section into box shape.  Fold flat on score line just under window.  Apply glue to end flap and tuck under, sealing to back of box.  See picture below.
Storybook Moments Sweet Treat Glueing
  • Fold in small flaps on one end, then larger flaps, leaving front flap last to give a nice finished edge from the front.  Apply glue across back edge of last flap to seal box.  Add treat and repeat on the other end.
  • Stamp carrot in Mossy Meadow on white and color with Blends.  Cut out with coordinating die.  Stamp sentiment in Lost Lagoon on white strip and use Snips to cut ends diagonally.
  • Adhere DSP to top section, snip end of carrot and adhere with glue.  Add sentiment with Dimensionals.
  • Embellish with Antique Pearls.
