This month’s theme is “Sweet Treat” (3D Projects).

Today we are sharing inspiration for packaging sweet treats! This month I created a gift tag using the Fragrant Flowers Bundle from the January-April 2023 Mini Catalog, the Favored Flowers 12×12 Designers Series Paper (DSP) from the 5 January – 28 February 2023 SALE-a-bration Catalog, and the Kraft Gift Boxes from the Annual Catalog. My color palette is Calypso Coral, Petal Pink, Evening Evergreen, and Basic Black.

Paper Supplies:

Scraps of floral images from the Favored Flowers DSP
1 3/4″ x 3 1/2″ of the Calypso Coral print from the Favored Flowers DSP
Scrap of Vellum
3 1/2″ x 3 1/2″ of Calypso Coral cardstock (tag base)
Scrap of Basic Black cardstock

The prep: I started by adhering the Calyspo Coral DSP print to one-half of the Calypso Coral cardstock, and cut a large circle using the Layering Circle Dies to create the tag base. Then I cut a smaller circle, also using the Layering Circle Dies. from Vellum. The floral images were die cut from the DSP using the Fragrant Flowers Dies. On a scrap piece of Basic Black cardstock, I heat embossed “Friend” from the Fragrant Flowers Photopolymer Stamp Set using Versamark and white embossing powder and trimmed the sentiment to my desired size.

Putting it all together: I attached the vellum circle to the center of the tag base using a bit of Stampin’ Seal in two small spots on half of the vellum (The adhesive will be covered by floral images.) Then I adhered the floral images over the edge of the tag base, one using Stampin’ Seal and the other with Stampin’ Dimensionals, and trimmed the edges following the edge of the circle tag base. The sentiment was attached using a bit of Stampin’ Seal where it lays over the image and a Stampin’ Dimensional on the other end. The tag was completed with the addition of Iridescent Rhinestones Basic Jewels and a small hole punched near the edge.

The final step: I put together a Kraft Gift Box and tied a bow with the Natural Finish Ribbon. Then I threaded some linen thread through the hole in the tag and tied it to the Natural Finish Ribbon. The ribbon can be slid off easily and the box filled with any sweet treat or gift!
