Matchbox Drawers

Hi there stampers! Happy Thursday!
Today's project is one I've been seeing here and there and knew I just had to make one too. It is so stinking cute it's hard to resist! The best part is it is easy peasy! It is also my submission to the Diva Coffee Break Challenge for the week since I used my Big Shot!


I started with some Baja Breeze cardstock and ran it through my new Matchbox Die from the Occasions Mini three times and then just put the three matchboxes together. The base of the box doesn't even require any adhesive-how great is that?! The top sleeve part only uses a tiny bit of Sticky Strip. Then I used Sticky Strip to adhere all three boxes together and added a piece of Walk in the Park DSP also from the Occasions Mini (I LOVE this paper!)all the way around the stack of matchboxes. I added some Baja Breeze Striped Ribbon (LOVE this too!) and used Mini Glue Dots to stick the buttons from the Button Bouquet package. Easy peasy and super cute!

This would be a great project for students or scouts to make or as teacher appreciation gifts filled with candies, paper clips, chapsticks or whatever little treat you want!






Here's one I saw at my Woo Hoo Stampers event used with the Top Note die as the top and bottom! The used some chipboard, a Fleurette and a butterfly from the Beautiful Butterflies die to embellish the top! Can these get any cuter?

Thanks for stopping by! Have a great day!

Diva Coffee Break Challenge

Hi there Stampers! Thanks for stopping by!


Today I decided to play along with the Divas over at the DCBC blog. This week's challenge really wasn't much of a challenge because I use my Big Shot ALL THE TIME!


My daughter had an Easter themed party with her Brownie troop and I needed something little but cute to give to her two troop leaders. What's better than chocolate than chocolate dressed up really cute?!
I started by running some of my left over Delicate Dots DSP from the Sale-A-Bration catalog through with the Sizzix Bigz XL Matchbox Die that's new in the Occasions Mini catalog. I quickly and easily put the matchboxes together using just one little piece of Sticky Strip for the box lid, as the bottom requires no adhesive at all! Next I stamped my bunny from the new Eight Great greetings also from the Occasions Mini in Black Stazon and colored him in with my SU Markers. I punched him out with my Wide Oval Punch and layered him on a Scallop Circle punched out of more Delicate Dots DSP. The So Saffron ribbon is also from the Sale-A-Bration catalog. Inside I wrapped two Ghiradelli chocolate squares in Delicate Dots DSP and added a die cut egg from the green sized Sizzix Eggs Die after running it through with a Cuttlebug Embossing folder. I think it turned out super cute and it was so easy!

Ingredients:
Stamps: Eight Great Greetings Ink: Black Stazon, SU Markers Paper: Delicate Dots DSP (SAB)WW, So Saffron Accessories: Sizzix Eggs Die, Sizzix Bigz XL Matchbox Die, SO Saffron Ribbon (SAB), Wide Oval Punch, Scallop Circle Punch, Sticky Strip, Dimensionals

Hope you have a super day!
