Gift Box using Stampin Up Star of Light : Holiday Catalogue products

Hi there and welcome to my Merry Monday blog

The Stampin UP Holiday Catalogue is now live and I am enjoying using the great new products.
In a previous blog I mentioned that the Star of Light is one of my favourties......well it  really is.
You will see wonderful examples of different uses all over Pinterest. It is such a versatile set.


For todays post, I have made a gift box made using Stampin UP card stock and decorated with the Star Of  Light Stamp set and Thinlits dies.
I made one box in Smoky Slate and the other in Pool Party using Sweet Sugarplum ink and card stock.


Really easy to make, and if you are coming to one of my Xmas Stamp- A Stack- classes we will be making these gift boxes.
This box is a great size for jewelry, soap or would even fit a set of 3 x 3 inch cards.
To make the box, you will need card stock that measures 10 x 8 inches

  • Score the long side at 2, 3 1/4, 6 3/4, and 8 inches
  • Score the short side at 1, 2 1/4, 5 3/4 and 7 inches
  • Fold and burnish the score lines and cut the score lines  -  example shown :


The belly band which goes around the box  is as a strip of Whisper White card stock cut at 2 x 11 inches. I stamped onto this using the Star of Light stamp set. I used the Starlight thinlit Die to cut out the image and adhered to the belly band.

The silver ribbon comes is included in the glitter ribbon combo pack in the Holiday Catalogue.

The products I used are listed below.

I hope you enjoyed this project. If you need any Stampin UP supplies and you don't have  a Demonstrator in Australia, I would be happy to help.
