Welcome to the October 2020 InKing Royalty Blog Hop! This month we are featuring Thanksgiving themed projects. I used Plaid Tidings Designer Series Paper and Cinnamon Cider card stock to create little treat boxes. I made the tage using layers of card stock and two punches: the Lovely Layers Pick a Punch and the Triple Banner Punch (aka Banner Triple Punch.)

Here’s what I did:
Cut with my paper trimmer:
- Cinnamon Cider card stock (CS) cut to 3-15/16″ x 3-15/16″
- Plaid Tidings Designer Series Paper (DSP) cut to 3″ x 3″
- Rich Razzleberry CS cut to 1″ x 5″
- Mango Melody CS cut to 3/4″ x 5″
- Whisper White CS cut to 1/2″ x 5″
Scored with Simply Scored Tool:
- Cinnamon Cider CS scored 1″ from each side
- DSP scored 1/2″ from each side
- NOTE: You can score using the Paper Trimmer, but for boxes I prefer to use the Simply Scored tool, just to make sure all the sides are scored exactly the same.
Cut using Paper Snips:
- the box and lid as shown in the diagram (Click on the diagram to see it larger.)
Cut using the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch:
- one end of each of the three CS strips
Stamped with the Banner Year stamp set:
- sentiment in Cinnamon Cider ink onto the Whisper White CS strip
Cut using the Banner Triple Punch:
- the opposite end of the three CS strips, after they were glued together
Assembled the box and lid:
- burnished the folds in the box and lid with a Bone Folder
- each tab of the lid glued onto the inside of the adjacent side
- box sides folded up, and tabs tucked inside the adjacent side (You can glue them if you want, but I usually leave them loose. I like the way it flops open when you take off the lid.)
- tucked in some goodies (4 Hershey kisses fit perfectly) and put on the lid
- wrapped the ribbon around the box and tied in a bow
Assembled the tag:
- Whisper White CS strip glued onto the Mango Melody CS strip
- Mango Melody CS strip glued onto the Rich Razzleberry CS strip
- notched the end with the Banner Triple Punch
- tag tucked under the ribbon on the box

For today’s cards, I used the Sweetest Time Bundle (Sweetest Time stamp set and Sweetest Border Dies) to make just the sweetest Bermuda Bay & Granny Apple Green Christmas holiday card. These may not seem like very traditional Christmas colors, but I think they work, don’t you? I got my inspiration from a card on page 73 of the August – December 2020 Mini Catalog.

S Sweetest Bermuda Sweetest Bermuda Sweetest Bermuda Sweetest Bermuda
Here’s what I made:
I made two different cards. They have different sentiments, and the holly leaves and pine sprigs are colored differently. Which do you like better?
S
Here’s how I made the Sweetest Bermuda Bay & Granny Apple Green card:
Cut and scored with my paper trimmer:
- Whisper White Thick card stock (CS) cut to 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″, then scored in half at 4-1/4″
- Whisper White Thick CS layer cut to 5-1/2″ x 3″
Stamped with the Sweetest Time stamp set:
- sentiment in Bermuda Bay ink onto a scrap of Whisper White Thick CS (I used a different sentiment on each of the two cards. I used the same color ink, and the same die to cut both.)
- candles in Bermuda Bay ink onto a scrap of Whisper White Thick CS
- candle flames in So Saffron ink
- NOTE: On one I stamped the flames on the same CS as the candles, then fussy cut around them. On the other one, I fussy cut only the candles and adhered them onto the card, then stamped the flames above them, which I found to be much easier.
Cut using the Sweetest Borders Dies:
- the Whisper White Thick CS layer using the holly border die
- 2 holly leaves and a pine sprig from a scrap of Whisper White Thick CS
Cut using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies:
Cut using Paper Snips:
Colored using Sponge Daubers:
- all die cuts in Bermuda Bay and Granny Apple Green inks
- NOTE: I made two cards. On one I colored all the holly in Bermuda Bay and the pine sprigs in Granny Apple Green. On the other one I did the opposite.
Colored using a Stampin’ Blends Marker:
- white ribbon in Light Bermuda Bay
Assembled the card:
- burnished the fold in the card base with a Bone Folder
- ribbon adhered onto the layer using Stampin’ Seal+, wrapping the ends around to the back of the layer
- 3 candles glued onto the front of the card base, overlapping them slightly
- die cut holly layer glued onto the front of the card base, over the candles, and lining up the bottom edges
- sentiment glued over the holly layer, hiding the bottoms of the candle (On one I glued the sentiment, and on the other one I adhered it using Stampin’ Dimensionals.)
- individual holly leaves and pine sprig glued onto the sentiment

I used the Sweetest Borders Dies and Sweetest Time stamp set along with ribbon and pearls to make this sweet holiday card. I used Petal Pink and Soft Sea Foam instead of the more traditional red and darker green, for a subtler nod to the holidays. It also just happens to be one of my favorite color combos.

- Whisper White CS cut to 5-1/4″ x 4″ for the inside of the card base
Stamped with the Sweetest Time stamp set:
- sentiment in Soft Sea Foam ink onto the smallest Whisper White CS strip
- holly leaves in Soft Sea Foam ink, and berries in Petal Pink ink, onto the Whisper White CS for the inside
Cut using the Sweetest Borders Dies:
- bottom edge of the largest Soft Sea Foam CS layer using the holly border die
- NOTE: I kept the two largest holly berry circles that came out of the die cut
Assembled the card:
- burnished the fold in the card base with a Bone Folder
- ribbon adhered onto the top part of the die cut Soft Sea Foam CS layer using Stampin’ Seal +, wrapping the ends around to the back
- die cut Soft Sea Foam CS layer glued onto the front of the card base, lining up the top edges
- 2 saved Soft Sea Foam CS circles glued into their holes in the center of the die cut area
- sentiment glued onto the Petal Pink CS layer
- Petal Pink CS layer glued onto the small Soft Sea Foam CS layer
- small Soft Sea Foam CS layer glued onto the larger Whisper White CS layer
- larger Whisper White CS layer adhered onto the die cut Soft Sea Foam CS layer, over the ribbon, using Stampin’ Dimensionals
- a second piece of ribbon tied in a bow around the first ribbon, to the left of the sentiment
- pearls applied over the “berries” in the die cut. I used 5 small, 10 medium, and 2 large pearls. The 2 large ones are on the filled in circles. You could leave out the saved circles, and let the 2 large pearls have a Petal Pink ring around them.
- Whisper White CS with stamped holly glued onto the inside of the card base
Here you can see where I glued the two largest circles back in the holes for the two largest pearls:
