Creativity Abounds Blog Hop - November 2025 - Gift Packaging

Wednesday, 19 November 2025

Time for another Creativity Abounds Blog Hop! We are a group of very keen Stampin’ Up!® Demonstrators from all around the world who are coming together to share our creative ideas with you. We are happy that you can join us and hope that we can inspire you to make creations of your own. You may be starting here or you may have come from someone else's blog - either way there is a list at the end of this post to help you move around all the different blogs and get many amazing ideas. We all have our country listed - so if you are looking for a demonstrator in your country, these demonstrators would love to look after you with your Stampin' Up!® shopping or if you would like to join our Stampin' Up!® teams.

Here's our amazing Creativity Abounds Design Team!

Our theme this month is Holiday Packaging, Gift Giving, or Decorations. I made this beautiful book box featuring the products from the Stampin' Up!® Elegant Pine Snowflakes Suite! I love this suite and it works perfectly to make a pretty box!

You can put lots of different treats in the box. I filled mine with Hershey Nuggets!

Measurements - Watch the YouTube Video for instructions on putting the box together.

Inside Box - 5" x 6 1/2" scored at 3/4" and 1 1/2" on each side
Outside Cover - 3 3/4" x 11" scored at 2 3/4", 5 1/2", 6 3/8" and 9 1/8"
Flap - 1" x 3" scored at 1" and 1 3/4"
Circles - punch using 2" Circle Punch
DSP (front) - 2 1/2" x 3 1/2"
DSP inside - 2 1/4" x 3 1/4"

Here's the template for how to cut the inside box once scored.

Here's another version made using the Traditions of Christmas Suite! Which is your favourite?
