Newton's Nook October New Release Reveal #1
Happy Monday and Welcome to Day #1 of the
NEWTON'S NOOK DESIGNS'
Holiday Release for October 2014
Today's stamp reveal is "Winston's Home For Christmas"
I love the homespun feel that Winston evokes, so I went with
a distress tag, gingham and jute to decorate this kraft gift box!
After stamping Winston onto a cream textured cardstock (with Staz On),
I watercolored the image and then distressed with Walnut Ink spray.
The image was cut out with an oval die and then distressed around the edges.
The sentiment was stamped onto a strip of patterned paper and then trimmed
out in a banner-tag fashion.

This unique cookie, treat box uses just one 12X12 sheet of paper and a section of acetate
overlay. (I had a few of these in my stash that had printing on one end...
I just trimmed the printed end off and used the clear portion for the top).

Give Handmade
Love making cards? Give a set as a gift this Christmas!
I have a simple way to give your handmade cards,
as well as keep them organized and safe from damage.
I'm using Doodlebug Designs' "Day to Day" Collection

First, I created a sturdy storage box with a sheet of 6x12 mat board
(found at most craft/framing stores). I scored the length at the 5" and 7" marks,
which gave finished dimensions of 6"W x 5"H x 2"D.
Just fold in on the score marks as you begin applying the desired patterned paper
(I've used Day By Day Collection for this project). By keeping the mat board folded
as you apply the paper, you will not have a gap or bubble once the box is together.
Cut your patterned paper to 10" x 12" and score at the 5" and 7" marks lengthwise.
Turn and score at 2" and 8" marks. Fold in and proceed to adhere to the mat board as
suggested above; make sure to center the paper and line-up score marks with score marks.
For the sides, cut out the small section between the two flaps and then glue the flaps together.

Decorate the front as desired and then begin assembling some simple note cards using
Doodlebug's premade Create-A-Cards!
My mom requested a set of everyday cards that she can send to friends and family, so I
kept the sentiments short and sweet OR I left the inside blank and only decorated the front.
A storage box of this size easily holds 10 decorated A6 cards.
You may choose to slip the box into a cellophane bag and tie on a bow before giving.
Anyone who loves handmade cards will surely appreciate such a gift :)
You will find all sorts of Gift-Giving Inspiration on the Doodlebug Blog this month
as we countdown to Christmas!
Enjoy your Saturday, friends!
Curtsey Boutique
Gift Box
Doily Wrapping
My last project for
CURTSEY BOUTIQUE
featured a plain kraft box decorated in a band of
pink paper doilies, ribbon and a sweet glittered topper.
Makes such a nice statement and so easy and quick to construct!
Curtsey Boutique carries pinstriped, yes pinstriped boxes of the same size...
check 'em out here! For the band, I used five of the 4" hand-dyed pink paper doilies
and adhered them together with a small glue dot. I then wrapped them around the
box (not too tightly so it will slide off), securing the ends at the bottom.
I love pink and turquoise together (well, I love turquoise with any color LOL), so I
added a band of satin ribbon and then tied on a bow to the top. To the center I added one
of my most favorite Curtsey Boutique products, a mini felt rose.
I wanted the glittered cake die-cut to stand UP on top of the box, so I attached two of
the pieces together by folding a strip of paper between them as shown above.
And that's it...pretty easy, right?? I think these would also make darling favor boxes for
a girly birthday party, baby or wedding shower or perhaps even for a caterer offering little
boxes of sweet treats :)
