Mini Curvy Keepsakes Boxes, make Christmas and party table favours or Halloween treat boxes using the Harvest Hello stamp set and Jack O Lanterns!
Let's say that today I'm getting in early for Christmas, rather than being late from last year ;-). Either way, I hope you enjoy seeing some Christmassy curvy keepsake characters. These are all based on cute boxes I've seen & pinned on Pinterest. Rudolf the Reindeer Rudolf is Santas favourite reindeer pal. He's based on this cute one by Darla. I added a fun tag from the Merry Everything stamp set & co-ordinating punch. You can see what I did on my handy dandy cheat sheet. and here's the combined image for you to pin or save. Santa's tummy & hat tag I saw a bajillion of these last year so I have no idea who thought of the idea in the first place, but the choice of pieces is based on what I thought looked right. The fab Santa hat was a brilliant idea from my fellow JAI team member & truly lovely lady, Nikki. Here's a closer pic of the tag. The hat is made with the pennant punch - sadly another retiring punch so get it now if you love making pennants... or Santa hats & it's 50% off too! To make it you'll need to punch 1 regular pennant in red & 1 scallop pennant in white. You place the white piece back into the punch - upside down so you can line up & cut the second scallop. The bobble top is a half inch circle. You can see a couple of options for making Santa's belly in my cheat sheet below. Note - the petite curly label punch is also retiring so if you like the cool, curvy shape, add that one to your list too. Here's the combines cheat sheet to pin or save. Christmas robin redbreast birdie This little birdie may be unfamiliar to my Australian peeps but when I saw Zoe's cute robin redbreast birdie box it made me smile & brought back memories of my Scottish childhood....& he's just so cute :-) I added another stamped tag using Merry Everything to make him even cuter too. I wasn't sure what dimensions Zoe used, but here's the cheat sheet showing the pieces & positioning. And here's the combined pic for you to pin or save. See all my curvy keepsake boxes together here I think that's all the curvy keepsake characters I have to share for now, but if you'd like to see more, you can check out my Curvy Keepsake die board on Pinterest, where I've pinned my fave ideas. Thanks for visiting & I hope you've enjoyed seeing these fun projects as much as I enjoyed making them. Stop by again soon for more ideas. Leave a comment if you have any questions or just to say hi. Inky wishes, Di PS: Remember that many of the punches I've used are retiring very soon - the blossom, modern label, small oval, petite curly label & pennant punches - so if you love punch art, then order them as soon as possible.

You probably remember my recent trip to St. George, UT for the Stampin' Up! Founder's Circle trip... well, while I was there I was thrilled to be invited to stamp with Susan Adams and Janet Baker at Susan's home! It was so much fun! Here is a photo of us stamping up a storm! It was super fun to spend the day with several of my demonstrator friends!! They had 4 super fabulous projects for us to make while we were there (click to see one of them) and today I'm sharing the 2nd project with you.. a darling
Hey there! Today we’re sharing our swaps for the 2015 Gold Coast Convention: Butterfly Curvy Keepsake Boxes.
Ich hab Euch nun ja ganz schön lange auf die Folter gespannt, was in diesem Jahr mein Swap für Brüssel sein wird. Aber heute hat das Warten endlich ein Ende, denn ich sitze gerade mit der lieben Jana und ihrem Mann im Auto und bin unterwegs zum ersten On Stage Event von Stampin' Up! Und das heißt natürlich auch, dass ich Euch jetzt verraten werde, was ich seit Wochen gebastelt habe. Na, habt Ihr nach dem Posttitel schon eine Idee? Also ... es waren - 100 Zierschachteln - 100 Eichelhütchen - 100 kleine graue Kreise - 200 halbe Schmetterlinge - 200 Tropfen aus der Baumstanze - 100 handgeschnittene Nasen - 400 große Ovale - 100 große Kreise - 100 schmale Streifen in grün - 300 kleine gelbe Kreise - 100 geflochtene Zöpfe (dabei hat mir zum Glück unsere Tochter geholfen) und natürlich auch ein paar Stempelabdrücke ;) Ja und dann gab es eine Invasion aus Gallien in meinem Keller. Jetzt bin ich auf Eure Kommentare gespannt, die ich dann wohl erst lesen kann, wenn ich wieder zu Hause bin. Morgen zeige ich Euch noch meinen zweiten Swap, den ich zusätzlich für die kleine Runde des Teams gemacht habe. Habt eine schöne Zeit - ich genieße derweilen Brüssel ... ohne meine Familie ;) ➽ DIESER BLOGPOST ENTHÄLT PR-SAMPLE UND SOMIT WERBUNG!
If you enjoyed seeing Blossom the Lion yesterday, then I think you'll enjoy these birdie boxes made with the fabulous curvy keepsake die. I made these back in October/November too but hopefully you'll forgive the delay since I've shared my punch cheat sheets for them so you can easily make your own little guys. One sweet birdie I'd seen this this cute owl box by Sarah in my Pinterest travels & loved the look of the wings. I wasn't really sure how she'd made them so I had a play & adapted the scallop circle punch to fit the curved side of the box. You can see all the pieces I used in this cheat sheet pic: You might notice that it shows to add some birdie feet. Sadly, the modern label punch used is retiring (& I believe is now sold out) but she still looks cute without them. You could also use the blossom punch as an alternative (see penguin below). Here's a final joined pic so you can pin or save the 2 pics together to use later. A Christmas Penguin There were LOTS of penguin boxes around last Christmas. Mine is mainly adapted from one in this vid by Amanda Fowler with little twists by me. Here's my punch cheat sheet. I used a bone folder to curve the punched ovals for his wings. I've given 2 options for the feet - using the blossom punch & modern label punch - both of which are retiring (I know!). One other note - the Santa hat is attached to the box base using a punched word window, folded in half into an L shape. I attached one half to the back of the hat & the other to the base. Here's the combined cheat sheet for him. Thanks for visiting today. I have lots more curvy keepsake boxes to share so please pop back again soon.

NOTE: I began writing this a few weeks ago but realized I needed more pictures if the tutorial was going to make sense. Panic set in when I couldn't locate my Curvy Keepsake Box thinlit. The last time I had used it was at the Charity Scrapbooking Crop which I had attended and for which I provided make-n-takes. A frantic phone call to the organizer did not turn up the missing thinlit, nor did her messages to the attendees. And so this post was put on hold. What good would it be without the appropriate photos to show precisely how to make my little adapted tummy box? Time passed and finally, a couple of days ago I pulled the comforter out of the back of my SUV, intending to clean it since the dogs had been all over it. And suddenly I heard a metallic clang---a soft one, but still, a clang. I checked the cement floor of the garage and there it was! My thinlit had jumped out of the bag into which I had packed it after the Crop and was just hanging out, having a good old time travelling around with me. Well, no more. I've put it to work again and here it is. My tutorial is finally ready. I love using the Curvy Keepsake Box. I've used it countless times as it was designed to be used, and decorated it up with great success. I've even used it as a wrap, adapting it to be used with just two sides. That has been a lot of fun and well received. And then I designed the Tummy Boxes, another adaptation of the Curvy Keepsake Box. These have been terrific little gift boxes for Christmas but could be used anytime, for all sorts of different occasions. Here, if you haven't seen it yet, is my little Snowman Tummy Box: He's easy to make. I'm going to lead you through the process and have taken pictures as I've gone along. The fun thing is that once you've made my little snowman, the sky is the limit. You can change the colours of cardstock and make a gingerbread man, Santa, any of the elves or even a reindeer. Your imagination is your limit with this adaption of the Curvy Keepsake Box. Ready? Let's begin. For the initial box you'll need the Curvy Keepsake Box thinlit, of course. Before I began cutting, I took a black marker and drew lines on the sides of my thinlit as shown: If you find this difficult to read, on the left it says 2" from cutting bar. (this will be the front). On the right it says 1 1/2" from cutting bar. (this will be a side). Materials: Heavy weight Whisper White, piece 1: 4" x 6 1/2" Heavy weight Whisper White, piece 2: 4" x 4 1/2" Real Red cardstock, optional: 1 7/8" x 1 7/8" 24" of your choice of 1/8" ribbon. Tear & Tape Adhesive Tools: Big Shot Curvy Keepsake Thinlit 1/8" Hole Punch Scissors Step-by-step photos: Now assemble your box the way you normally would, using the adhesive of your choice to hold the bases together. I've used Fast Fuse because I find it holds beautifully. Then, if you wish to have a liner for your base, adhere the piece of Real Red to the inside bottom. I also used my scissors to curve the corners of the front. Cut your piece of ribbon. Find the center of the ribbon and place the ribbon across the back of the box, on top of the Tear & Tape Adhesive. You are now ready to begin lacing the ribbon through the holes you've punched. Once you've pulled the ribbon through the punched holes, as shown, you can pull the sides and front up and tie the bow in front. And that is basically how to make the Adapted Curvy Keepsake Box. It becomes the "tummy" of whatever character you decide to make. The following is how I've made it into a snowman. I've shaded around the perimeter of the head by using a sponge and Basic Grey ink. I drew the eyes using my Basic Black Stampin' Marker as well as all those little "pieces of coal" which make up his mouth. The nose is actually the ice-cream cone framelit from the Snow Friends framelits with the "ice-cream" cut into a smaller circle. It was cut from a piece of Tangelo Twist cardstock and the little "carrot-wrinkles" were hand-drawn using the Tangelo Twist Stampin' Marker. I used the Blushing Bride Stampin' Marker to colour in his cheeks. You can see that I've curved the "arms" from the baby's onesie for the brim of the hat and also curved the top of the hat. I glued a piece of the matching striped ribbon around the hat and attached a sprig of holly using the Snow Friends framelit and matching stamp. Finally, the arms. If you follow my lines, you can get both arms from the circle which you've already cut. You can see how easily the circle becomes two arms. I used Tombo glue to attach the head and arms after sponging a bit of Basic Grey to give the body, arms and head some "dimension". I attached a blank white circle to the back of the head to hide the cut-out from the Curvy Keepsake Die. You can see how everything is attached from the back. Lastly I used the Owl Builder Punch and cut five little circles (the second largest of the punch) and attached them to his body and the front of the box. This is the completed little snowman. He's a lot of fun to make and his "tummy" holds a lot of candies. As you can see, a lot of candies fit into his waiting tummy. And here, just for fun, is a little Gingerbread "tummy" Man which I created from the Kraft paper. I hope you enjoy making your own little "tummy" people and animals. Your imagination is your limit. If you have any questions, just email me or ask in my comment section. I'd love to see your creations, as well. I've entered my little Gingerbread "tummy" Guy into the Merry Monday Christmas Challenge. And I've also entered him into the {PIN}spirational Challenge.

Hey there! Today we’re sharing our swaps for the 2015 Gold Coast Convention: Butterfly Curvy Keepsake Boxes.
Hello and welcome back.... I so love Spring,seeing all the lambs in the fields and we do have rather a lot here in Wales....lol, so I thought I would make a Lamb Curvy Keepsake Box. Aren't they just adorable, now a lot of the punches I used to use to do my punch art are no longer available so its always a struggle to find something to replace them with but I think I have done really well with theses adorable lambs. The fluffy tufts on their heads are the smallest flower die from the Bloomin' Heart Framelits with the tiny flower from the Tree builder punch in the middle...cute huh. The ears are from the Pyramid Pals Thinlits dies and the head is a 2" circle punched out of Basic Black card and then cut down either side. The eyes are the 1/4" and 1/8" circle punches. I cut the box pieces out of Thick Whisper White Card and stamped them with the curly stamp from the Playful Pals stamp set, then I assembled the boxes and stuck the finished head on to the box with dimensionals. On the back of the box I added a little tail, made with one of the dies from the Pyramid Pals Thinlits Die set. So very cute...

For some reason I had a craving for an apple on my way home from school yesterday. (Hmmm…I wonder if it has anything to do with my projects the last few days? LOL ) When I got home I decided…
I have teamed up with 11 Incredible Demonstrators from around the globe to bring you a Tutorial Bundle, once a month for a 6 month period (August 2016 - January 2017). All tutorials are offered in both Metric and Imperial measurements so that everyone around the globe are able to recreate the projects with ease. You will receive no less than TWELVE tutorials in each month's Tutorial Bundle, one tutorial from each of the twelve designers. For a sneak peek of each month's Tutorials and/or to purchase them click below. Poppy Favour Tutorial Cut Two Ovals of differing sizes and stamp using Kinda Eclectic sunburst image in the same Real Red as the cardstock. Curl the edges using a bone folder (I have kept them flat here for the purpose of the photo). Snip into the centre where they over lap and interlock. Die cut the leaf from the Leaflets Framelits in Garden Green. Mount the poppy on a disc of Basic Black and sandwich your treat between that and another disc. Add the leaf and then the poppy head, before finishing it off with a smaller circle of Black Cardstock to the centre, which I've adhered using a single Dimensional foam pad. Notecard and Tag Gift Box for 3"x3" cards Click on the above photo to see the project post in it's entirety. Below are the instructions for making the box and insert divider. The enclosed Notecards are a simple 3" x 3" square card and the coordinating Envelopes were made using the Envelope Punch Board and Designer Series Paper. The tags are cut to 2" wide, finished using the Tag Topper Punch and cut to your chosen length to fit the box. Stamp up the cards to coordinate with your chosen DSP. Snip into one score line at each corner and use a strong adhesive to assemble. I have shown here with Sticky Strip so that you are able to see it clearly. It is a good idea to adhere the divider in place. This helps to give the box a little more strength to the base. If you are stamping on the Box Lid, you will want to do this before assembling. Wonderland Hanging Star Ornament Tutorial (6" x 6") Click on the photo, to be taken to the Tutorial Instructions. Envelope Punch Board Mini Album (6" x 6") Click on the photo, to be taken to the Tutorial Instructions. Envelope Punch Board/Paper Table Favour Click on the photo, to be taken to the Tutorial Instructions. The instructions will yield 12 favours from one sheet of 12" x 12" paper. Instructions require a 3" square piece for this size. Sprinkles of Life Slider Card Click on the first photo to be taken to the Photographic Tutorial instructions. Gift Card Envelope Box Tutorial Click on the photo to be taken to the Tutorial instructions. Santa's Face Embellishment Tutorial I have received some lovely comments and emails asking for instructions on how to make the Punch Art Santa that I showed on my Curvy Keepsake Gift Boxes of late, so without further ado ….. get your punches ready and spread a little cheer! You will need the following punches and dies: 2 3/8" Scallop Circle - White 1 3/4" Scallop Circle - White Large Oval - Blushing Bride Large circle from Owl Builder Punch - Blushing Bride 2 Medium Circles from Owl Builder Punch - Black Mustache Framelit - White Petite Pennants Builder - Real Red Petite Pennants Builder - Silver Glimmer (part punch) 1/2" Circle - Silver Glimmer 1. Punch out one each of the above (unless otherwise stated) 2. Assemble as shown. Taking the Pennant Parade part punch of glimmer paper and holding with a post it note, re-insert into the punch in the opposite direction to add a scalloped edge to the opposite side of the scalloped bottom edge. 3. Add the Mustache to the face using Dimensionals and add the scalloped punched glimmer strip to the bottom of the hat. 4. Attach the hat to the face and decide where you wish to use your cheerful Santa. Merry Christmas Mikaela x Curvy Keepsake Pumpkin Box Tutorial Place an online order with me during the month of October 2014, of £20 or more, and you will receive a kit to make two of these cute boxes. Look out for the Hostess Code to apply to your order at the beginning of October (Note that the Designer Series Paper may differ to that shown here). Cut two each of the Cardstock sides and two of the Polka Dot Designer Series Paper sides. Please note that this particular DSP has been retired, but the Designer Series paper Stacks would offer a similar polka dot. Die cut as shown here. Fold on the score lines and lay out as shown here. Adhere the cardstock base together, then trim off the excess DSP along the scoreline at the base of the sides. Add adhesive to the outside edge of the little side tab of the card stock base and marry up the base of the DSP side. Repeat on both sides. The base of your box will now look like this. Very gently, using the full length of a Bone Folder, curl each box side inwards on itself, in the direction of it being assembled. The Curvy Keepsake Box Thinlits, comes complete with 3 possible tags. I've used the oval here and stamped using a Hostess Set called, Good Greetings. The leaf has been die cut using the Autumn Accents Die. Take a thin strip of matching card stock and wrap it tightly around a thin round pen or similar. Layer the tag and leaf, attach the card stock curl with a Glue Dot and tie to the box using Linen Thread. Curvy Keepsake Box Thinlits Dies £29.95 Autumn Accents Bigz Die £18.95 Pumpkin Pie A4 Card Stock £6.25 Old Olive A4 Card Stock £6.25 Crumb Cake A4 Card Stock £6.25 Linen Thread £3.95 Flower Shop Stamp Set Tip Should you purchase the gorgeous Flower Shop Stamp Set and Punch Bundle, then you will find this tip for setting up the stamps, very useful. Thankfully, I discovered this tip from one of my fellow Demonstrators in America, before setting my kit up. There is only one way that the punch will fit neatly around the stamped image, with an even edge all the way round, so you need to find this to start with … and here is how. Firstly you want to take a piece of cardstock and pushing the strip right down into the punch, punch out the image. Turn the piece of cardstock over and mark which is the top and bottom of the image (the bottom being the inside edge of the punch). It is important to turn the cardstock over to mark this, as you are wanting the punch to sit the way the image will appear when stamped. Now place each flower image in turn onto your acrylic block and with the punched out flower, sit it over the rubber image, turning it until it sits snuggly around the flower (there really is only one best way). When you've found it, mark on the edge of the rubber, where the bottom is (as shown in the bottom left photo here). Repeat for each flower image. I have marked the bottom, so that now when I stamp the image, I stamp it with the bottom mark of the image to the edge of the cardstock, so that I can slot it directly into the punch, without having to cut away excess cardstock to line it up. I have also marked the rubber that I store them in, so that I know which way round it sits neatly back in the case. I hope this makes sense. I think once you start rotating the cardstock, you'll see how it fits better one way more so than the others.

Slide the tip of each strip of cardstock (except one) into the Jewelry Tag Punch (as shown above) only punching one end Stick the unpunched strip along the top edge of the 7.5 x 5cm piece of Lucky Limeade Cardstock and then the punched slats, to create the picket fence When you've completed your fence, trim excess wooden slats along the bottom if needed and run back through the big shot, using the Two Tags Bigz Die, to create the bottom edge of the tag Adhere dimensionals to the back of the fence and create two vertical lines of 3 dimensionals on the Tag, from just below the score line upwards, where you want your flowers to sit. Using the excess side strips of your dimensionals, add a height to one stem Using the Itty Bitty Punch Set, punch a LOT of flowers out of Wisteria Wonder cardstock and crumple between your fingers (you can do several at a time), before attaching the screwed up flowers to each dimensional line, until covered Add the Calypso Coral Butterfly and the leaves using Glue Dots Attach the fence to the main tag, lining up the bottom edge and tucking the leaves between the fence posts Using the Woodgrain Stamp, Crumb Cake Ink and the Second Edition Stamping technique, stamp strips of Crumb Cake Card Stock Print your chosen sentiment with Early Espresso Ink and punch out using the Ticket Duo Builder, before adding this with Snail adhesive to the fence Slot your ribbon through the curved cut at the top of the tag and secure with a bow of Linen Thread Enjoy making and creating your own versions!

Hello and welcome back to another Curvy Keepsake Wednesday... I have a fantastic little box to share with you today, if you are a follower of Game of Thrones then you will love this box, its a Red Dragon... I am so loving this little chap, His body is a basic Curvy Keepsake Box in Real Red card assembled in the normal way and I have sponged Real Red ink around all the edges. His tummy is the Extra Large Oval punch in Cherry Cobbler card, I assembled the head before attaching this to the box. The Wings are the Extra Large Oval shaped using the small Oval punch. How cute is that tail, its a triangle of card 9 cm x 3 cm, then I used the small Oval Punch to cut grooves in it. I shaped it with a bone folder before attaching it to the box. For the head I used the 1 3/8" Circle Punch and cut 2, (one for the front and one for the back) I then used my paper snips and shaped the head by taking a small groove out of each side and one out of the top. Next I punched out a Large Oval and cut a small groove in it to shape the snout. I used the large circle from the Owl Builder Punch to create the nostrils. For the eyes I used the large circle from the Owl Builder Punch and punched out 2 white and one red. For the Black pupils I used the leaf from the Bird builder punch. I assembled the eyes and added them to the face and then added highlights with a White gel pen. The ears are the wing from the Bird Builder Punch and the fire coming from his mouth is the birds tail also from the Bird Builder Punch, I cut 2 in Crushed Curry and 1 in Pumpkin Pie. To finish the head I used a small Oval behind the muzzle and then stuck the head to a piece of card 1/2" x 1 1/2" (neck) then to tidy up the back of the head I stuck the second head piece I cut out at the beginning.

NOTE: I began writing this a few weeks ago but realized I needed more pictures if the tutorial was going to make sense. Panic set in when I couldn't locate my Curvy Keepsake Box thinlit. The last time I had used it was at the Charity Scrapbooking Crop which I had attended and for which I provided make-n-takes. A frantic phone call to the organizer did not turn up the missing thinlit, nor did her messages to the attendees. And so this post was put on hold. What good would it be without the appropriate photos to show precisely how to make my little adapted tummy box? Time passed and finally, a couple of days ago I pulled the comforter out of the back of my SUV, intending to clean it since the dogs had been all over it. And suddenly I heard a metallic clang---a soft one, but still, a clang. I checked the cement floor of the garage and there it was! My thinlit had jumped out of the bag into which I had packed it after the Crop and was just hanging out, having a good old time travelling around with me. Well, no more. I've put it to work again and here it is. My tutorial is finally ready. I love using the Curvy Keepsake Box. I've used it countless times as it was designed to be used, and decorated it up with great success. I've even used it as a wrap, adapting it to be used with just two sides. That has been a lot of fun and well received. And then I designed the Tummy Boxes, another adaptation of the Curvy Keepsake Box. These have been terrific little gift boxes for Christmas but could be used anytime, for all sorts of different occasions. Here, if you haven't seen it yet, is my little Snowman Tummy Box: He's easy to make. I'm going to lead you through the process and have taken pictures as I've gone along. The fun thing is that once you've made my little snowman, the sky is the limit. You can change the colours of cardstock and make a gingerbread man, Santa, any of the elves or even a reindeer. Your imagination is your limit with this adaption of the Curvy Keepsake Box. Ready? Let's begin. For the initial box you'll need the Curvy Keepsake Box thinlit, of course. Before I began cutting, I took a black marker and drew lines on the sides of my thinlit as shown: If you find this difficult to read, on the left it says 2" from cutting bar. (this will be the front). On the right it says 1 1/2" from cutting bar. (this will be a side). Materials: Heavy weight Whisper White, piece 1: 4" x 6 1/2" Heavy weight Whisper White, piece 2: 4" x 4 1/2" Real Red cardstock, optional: 1 7/8" x 1 7/8" 24" of your choice of 1/8" ribbon. Tear & Tape Adhesive Tools: Big Shot Curvy Keepsake Thinlit 1/8" Hole Punch Scissors Step-by-step photos: Now assemble your box the way you normally would, using the adhesive of your choice to hold the bases together. I've used Fast Fuse because I find it holds beautifully. Then, if you wish to have a liner for your base, adhere the piece of Real Red to the inside bottom. I also used my scissors to curve the corners of the front. Cut your piece of ribbon. Find the center of the ribbon and place the ribbon across the back of the box, on top of the Tear & Tape Adhesive. You are now ready to begin lacing the ribbon through the holes you've punched. Once you've pulled the ribbon through the punched holes, as shown, you can pull the sides and front up and tie the bow in front. And that is basically how to make the Adapted Curvy Keepsake Box. It becomes the "tummy" of whatever character you decide to make. The following is how I've made it into a snowman. I've shaded around the perimeter of the head by using a sponge and Basic Grey ink. I drew the eyes using my Basic Black Stampin' Marker as well as all those little "pieces of coal" which make up his mouth. The nose is actually the ice-cream cone framelit from the Snow Friends framelits with the "ice-cream" cut into a smaller circle. It was cut from a piece of Tangelo Twist cardstock and the little "carrot-wrinkles" were hand-drawn using the Tangelo Twist Stampin' Marker. I used the Blushing Bride Stampin' Marker to colour in his cheeks. You can see that I've curved the "arms" from the baby's onesie for the brim of the hat and also curved the top of the hat. I glued a piece of the matching striped ribbon around the hat and attached a sprig of holly using the Snow Friends framelit and matching stamp. Finally, the arms. If you follow my lines, you can get both arms from the circle which you've already cut. You can see how easily the circle becomes two arms. I used Tombo glue to attach the head and arms after sponging a bit of Basic Grey to give the body, arms and head some "dimension". I attached a blank white circle to the back of the head to hide the cut-out from the Curvy Keepsake Die. You can see how everything is attached from the back. Lastly I used the Owl Builder Punch and cut five little circles (the second largest of the punch) and attached them to his body and the front of the box. This is the completed little snowman. He's a lot of fun to make and his "tummy" holds a lot of candies. As you can see, a lot of candies fit into his waiting tummy. And here, just for fun, is a little Gingerbread "tummy" Man which I created from the Kraft paper. I hope you enjoy making your own little "tummy" people and animals. Your imagination is your limit. If you have any questions, just email me or ask in my comment section. I'd love to see your creations, as well. I've entered my little Gingerbread "tummy" Guy into the Merry Monday Christmas Challenge. And I've also entered him into the {PIN}spirational Challenge.

Yep, still playing with the new thinlits die that will be in the upcoming Stampin'Up! Holiday Catalog, going live on August 28th! One witch I used the new Tree Punch for the triangular hat and the other witch uses the Circles Collection framelits for the hat base and then I made my own triangles for the top. As in my snowman, the hat just slips over the box handles making it easy to reach the treats inside. The "hair" is pulling threads from the Burlap Ribbon. My witch color is Old Olive.
