Yesterday's LIVE on Facebook featured some fun projects using the Night Before Christmas Suite from the Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog.
Unfortunately, there are focus issues with the video. Since the quality is not as good as I want it to be, I chose not to upload the video. If you're "brave", you can catch the replay HERE.

For today's project, here's an idea for a gift box for a bottle of essential oils. This is one I've made and gave to a good friend. We both love Stress Relief by Eden's Garden so presented this bottle to her a few weeks ago.
This is a very simple box style with a sweetly pinched top. In the video, be sure to watch for how I secure the closing.
Lisa's Inklings:
Cardstock is cut at 5-1/2" x 8 1/2" and scored at 2", 4", 6", and 8" on the long side.

Scrap pieces of Merry Merlot, Cajun Craze, and Pretty Peacock are needed for die cutting leaves and punching circle.
Whisper White scrap is needed for stamping and punching the sentiment.

The idea is to bless others by leaving a little card in unexpected places with an inspiring message. Usually, I will carry mini Valentines to share on Valentine's Day but this year will be sharing during the fall preceding Thanksgiving. I know in my heart that those who find the cards are meant to have them. Another idea is to share with those who provide a service for you. (Mail Carrier, clerk at the bank, cashier at the market...you get the idea.)
Here is a photo of how the box opens...
Here's a peek at the little cards. I made three of each.
It's a simple project and I encourage you to do something similar!
Here's the recording of the Facebook Live video...

Today's projects are two fun Halloween 2019 treat-giving ideas using the wonderful Spooktacular Bash Bundle from the Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog. One is a treat pouch sized perfectly for miniature bags or bars of candy and the other is the tag to hang from a drink or other treat. This bundle is a fun one for Halloween but if that's not for you, be sure you don't miss the beautiful ornate frames. These can be used for any occasion. Now let's take a look at the video with these two projects!
Pouch Cut card stock for the pouch to 4" x 6". With 4" side at the top, score at 1/2". With 6" side at the top, score at 1-1/2" x 4-1/4". You'll need another piece of the same color card stock cut to 2-1/2" x 3-1/4". For the sentiment, stamp on Pumpkin Pie card stock (3" x 4") then die cut. Choose a character from the designer paper to die cut with a small frame.
Tag For tag, cut DSP (designer series paper) to 2" x 4". Accent strip is cut 1/2" x 2". You'll need approx. 2-1/2" x 3" to cut Basic Black tag and 2" x 2" to cut Gray Granite tag.
