So I have to say I am also in LOVE with the Holiday Treats set by A Chemistry With Paper!!
I can’t stop using it. I haven’t seen anything else like it, and am just working on putting all the possibilities in my head, onto paper!
Nothing say’s you care like the way your present a gift. Especially as crafter’s, making cute packaging can be so rewarding.
This Gingerbread House treat box was one of the many to come.
I saw these cute gingerbread house idea’s, by Martha Stewart. It was $7.99 for 6 SMALLER treat boxes!!! That’s a $1.33 per box. Granted it came with a tiny piece of ribbon/tag for each-but still.
I made my own with ONE sheet of creamy caramel cardstock 0.23 cents to make!
I just scored my cardstock along the 11 length-with my Scor-Pal at 2 1/2, 5, 7 1/2 then 10.
I then scored along the 8 1/2 side at 1 1/2 and 6. This makes the top, and bottom.
For my house, I used the gingerbread-man border, from Holiday Treats byACWP, stamped around the box. Colored with Copic’s and white singlo gel pen. Red stickles on the buttons.
The “sign” is thier Holiday Cheer set-another great one.
I then used Papertrey Ink Borders & corners for the “window’s”, stamped in white craft.
For the trim around the box, I used Its Elemental by MFT Stamps.
My Keytag punch made the door.
VIOLA!! My own holiday Gingerbread House treat box!
Here is what is inside-click for larger view.
These are two of the gourmet rice crispy treat’s I spoke of in a few other posts. They are by Archer Farms (Target), and two in a pack is only 0.80 cents!!!
These are peanut butter, with choc. drizzle, and a milk choc. with white/dark choc. drizzle! They are SO yummy!!! Plus since they are pre-wrapped you can start packaging them all up without making them or worry they’ll go bad.
Cute huh??
Hope you like it!
Till tomorrow. I have another Elzybell card, and MORE samples from ACWP!!!
Plus I’ll announce the winner of the Cookie Recipe Holder!

That’s a really cute set from ACWP……I havent seen a set like that with such large cookie images.
And those krispy treats are a SCORE! I bet Target will start running out of them really soon!
Hope you had a great weekend!

Wow! You are just too much! How cool is that?!? I love what you’re doing with the new stamps! You’re definitely going to ‘sell’ a lot of these stamps for them! Great job!
Wow, what a great project. I have the scor-pal–now I need stamps and ambition. Thanks for sharing your creativity. You are awesome.

Very clever idea Lauren – it would be a really cute gift for the bus driver, etc. Thanks as always for sharing!
very nice!!! I just might have to try this!
As always…ever thoughtful with your ideas!
This is adorable! I love Martha Stewarts line but talk about expensive! Thanks for sharing! 🙂
Very clever Lauren..You are oooozzing with talent. Thanks for sharing!
Adorable!
This is adorable!
Very cute! What an economical and darling Christmas gift.
Lauren, your creativity never ceases to amaze me! Wow! Wow! Wow! Now I need to get going on making some gifts.
Oh, this is so cute! This is sure to spark big smiles ! 🙂
Another really great idea! Thanks for sharing. I’ll have to try one! I am loving what you are doing with that stamp set!
Dang that’s cute! Love how you used so many different sets to pull it all together.
That’s just too darn cute! Thanks for sharing it with us!
Go Lauren, GO Lauren.
You are just a creatin’ machine girl!
Such great ideas. Thanks…
How stinkin’ cute!!! Love your house Lauren!! Thanks for sharing it with us!
That is such a cute and perfect holiday gift bag. 🙂 Love it!
Hey Lauren … you are by far WAY WAY ahead on the Christmas stuff {groan}… I haven’t even started to ink up for my cards~~Eeeek 🙂
I love the Gingerbread Man/Gal stamps from Chemistry; went to check it out but see they only ship within the USA {major pout} so I’m hoping my favorite design team member {wink wink} can get that changed at some point in the near future 🙂
But my favorite has to be the Ginerbread design, as I love the vintage feel for times gone by.
And I loved your story about the kids picking a gift for someone less fortunate ~~ yes that makes me totally sad when you see children needing/wanting winter clothes or boots for a gift, when every child arround the world *should* be getting something that makes them smile and glow from within ~ whether that is a toy, a doll, a book, etc. You certainly have set great examples for your kids …. and to think all their loot is from your creativite talents :0)
