You could easily change all of these ideas into Christmas colors, too!
The first idea is a variation of the idea that I posted last week from Claudia Lapos. Click here to see the taller last week's version of this same box. This dimension comes from Rosemarie Diehl. It is 7"x 10 1/2". Score at 2 1/2", 5", 7 1/2", and 10" along the longer side. Score at 2 1/2" to form the bottom flaps. Then cut in along each of the score lines on the longer side from the edge up to the 2 1/2" score line. Put the box together with Sticky Strip. You can vary the height to whatever size you need.
Here is another very nice gift that you can make pretty quickly. Make it in any color combination that you can find a coordinating post-it-note pad for. Click here for instructions from an earlier one of my posts.
The #115965 Fancy Favor Box also goes together very quickly. The #102210 Large Cello bags (50 6 x 8 for $4.95) work well here. The two scallop Circle Punches are #'s 16 and 17 page 201 in the Stampin' Sp! Idea Book and Catalog. The Elegant Thank You is a single stamp on page 20. See yesterday's post for more details on the punches and stamp.
And here is the Fancy Favor Box again. I used the #120175 Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder page 214 $7.95 on the card stock before the put the box together.
I tied one knot in the end of some 1/4" black grosgrain ribbon and then pulled it through a 1/8" hole. I taped the end of the ribbon insdie the box with a little Sticky Strip.
And here is one more Fancy Favor Box held together with two Pretty in Pink brads. The "M" is from #115951 Timeless Type medium Sizzlet Dies page 212 $74.95. This includes letters, numbers, and some extras. Each let capital letter is approx 1" tall.
I hope you have gotten a lot of ideas and inspiration for gift giving from these last two days!
I would love to hear (e-mail me) which ones are you favorites, what you plan to use them for, and also see any changes that you make to these ideas for even more ideas!
Thank you for stopping by!











Sandy, these ideas are great! I have a couple of friends that are Mary Kay Consults and they would love these! Thanks!

Don't you recognize that it is the best time to receive the loan, which would help you.
