Welcome to another Stampin’ Up! Artisan Design Team Blog Hop!  There are 20 of us from around the globe who will be sharing our projects with you twice each month.  All you need to do to follow along is click on the link at the bottom of each post.

For this month we were asked to focus our projects on packaging, and we were given the Gift Box Punch Board and the Bow Builder Punch.  I paired my tools with the Made with Love stamp set and the Shine On Specialty Designer Series Paper, and created some favor boxes, a gift box, and a gift card for a baby shower.

I made several boxes for party favors and one box to hold a small baby gift.  The gift box is sized at 3-1/4″ square and the favor boxes are sized at 1-3/4″ square.  They were so quick and easy to make!  With the small boxes, I was able to make four boxes from one sheet of dsp.

I made the little tags out of Watercolor Paper and colored the sweet images from Made with Love with an Aquapainter.  I cut them out using the Tags and Labels Framelits Dies.  A little Metallic Foil Doilie was placed on top of the box and topped with a Watermelon Wonder bow made with the Bow Builder Punch.

The gift box was made the same way as the favor boxes, but was topped with a bow using the Watermelon Wonder 1″ Stitched  Satin Ribbon.

Going along with the same theme and colors, I made a little 3″ x 3″ note card to enclose with the gift.  The cute little onesie was paper pieced from some Cherry on Top dsp.
