Wednesday of Challenge!

Today challenge is about Gift Cards!! Sometimes we just have no idea about what to give and we just get a Gift Card from a store we know they can get something they need, right? Well, how do you give these Gift Cards, just like that, or with the lil stuff the store give you (if they give you something, lol). Try to come up with something different for this years gift cards! Here is what I did and I am not a fan of Gift Cards, but just in case I need it! If you want to get the template and measures just write a comment here!

*************************************************************************************
El reto de hoy es sobre Tarjetas de Regalo! En ocasiones no tenemos ni idea de que regalar y sencillamente compramos una Tarjeta de Regalo de alguna tienda en la cual sabemos la persona que la recibe puede comprar algo que le guste y/o necesita, cierto? (por ejemplo en nuestro caso una tienda de sb, jeje). Bueno, como entregas estas tarjetas? así nada más, o en lo que te dan en la tienda (si es que te dan algo, jeje). Trata algo nuevo, inventate algo difernete para entregar las tarjetas de este año! Esto fue lo que cree y no soy fanática de las Tarjetas de Regalo, pero solo por si la necesito! Si te gustaría recibir el template y medidas para hacerlo, deja tu comentario aquí!

Tall Boy Box Template and Tutorial

I am sooo sorry! I couldn't post the template for the Tall Boy Box yesterday since it was Sunday! and during Sunday I go to church and then have fun with the family until the evening and after the dinner I came to check my e-mail and the internet, but I was tired and without energy to come visit my blog, lol!

Anyhow here the template and the tutorial on how to do it, I hope you can try it!

What you need for the box:

Piece of cardstock 8½ x 9½ (I used Kraft), Scor Pal and Crop-a-dile.

Instructions:
1. Score the cardstock (9½ side) at 3, 4½, 7½ and 9.
2. Turn the cardstock (8½ side) at 1, 2½, 6½ and 8.
3. Cut as shown in the template.
4. Fold all the score lines.
5. Corner Rounder the flaps if you want
6. Decorate the box.
7. Glue the ½ inch tab and put it together. Do two holes with the Crop-a-dile at the top of the box.
8. Fill the box with Almond Joy (I created this box specifically for this ones) or
whatever you want.
9. Embellish as desired.
To decorate and embellished the box I used the Winchester Paper Collection, Brown Cardstock Strips, Spanish Sentiment Set and Neutral Twill.

DON'T forget the 25% off sale in the Discontinued Products TAC is having! Today I went to order some of my favorites cardstock and they WERE GONE!! So please hurry and get your stuff NOW! Go visit my store here under Discontinued products there is different categories, don't forget to check them all!

Lo siento mucho! Ayer no pude subir el "template" de la caja alta porque era domingo!!! y durante los domingos voy a la iglesia y luego con la familia. No es hasta después de la cena y recoger la cocina que vengo a ver mi e-mail y la internet, pero estaba tan cansada y sin energía para visitar mi blog, jeje!

De todas maneras aquí el "template y las instrucciones, espero lo puedas intentar!

Lo que necesitas para la caja:

Pedazo de cardstock 8½ x 9½ (En este caso azul), Scor Pal, Corner Rounder y Crop-a-dile.

Instrucciones:
1. Con la Scor Pal haz el “scoring” en el cardstock (del lado de 9½) a 3, 4½, 7½ y 9.
2. Gira el cardstock (ahora trabajaras en el lado de 8½) has el “scoring” a 1, 2½, 6½ y 8.
3. Corta según se ve en el template.
4. Dobla todas las lineas donde hiciste los “scoring”.
5. Con el Corner Rounder corta las aletas si deseas.
6. Decora la caja.
7. Pega la tableta de ½ pulgada para cerrar la caja. Has dos rotitos con la Crop-a-dile en el flap del tope de la caja (ver foto).
8. Llena la caja con dulces o utilízala para un regalo pequeño. Almond Joy (I created this box specifically for this ones) o lo que quieras.
9. Puedes añadir más embellishments si deseas.

Oopss! The Tall Boy Box!

Today was a LONG day! Lots of things to do and some problems to fix! (and memories to remember, I was enjoying my videos from Seminar, WE REALLY HAD FUN!!, lol). I was almost ready to sleep when I remembered that I have to post my BOX!! I told you so!!! so here it is!! This was a project I designed for Paper Wings. I create this box to give some chocolates to my DH for Father's Day!! don't tell him. Because that was my intention but I forgot to give it to him!! I was sooooo busy cooking and getting everything together to have a spectacular Father's Day! (I started on Saturday honoring my Father, do you remember?) Anyway I hope you can use it over and over is a great box and it looks fenomenal! I need to go to sleep! but hope you enjoy it! If it looks familiar with another one, yes!! This is the father of the Club Med Mini Box! I designed this one first and then I adapted to use only half of the cardstock to save a littel bit on it! I called this one Tall Boy Box!

Hoy fue un día SUPER LARGO! Muchas cosas que hacer y algunos problemas que arreglar! (y memorias que recordar, hoy estuve viendo algunos de los videos que grabé durante el Seminario, SI QUE GOZAMOS!! jeje). Estaba casi lista para dormir cuando recordé que tenía que poner la CAJA!! Les dije que lo haría, así que aquí está!! Este fue un proyecto que diseñé para Paper Wings. Creé esta caja para darle unos chocolates a mi esposo el Día de los Padres!! NO le digan pues esa fue mi intención pero se me olvidó!! Estaba tannnnnn ocupada cocinado y preparandolo todo para pasar un Día de los Padres especTACular!! (Recuerdan que empecé el sábado honrando a mi querido padre!!) De todos modos espero que puedan usar esta cajita una y otra vez pues de verdad que se ve fenomenal!! Okay, necesito irme a dormir, espero la disfruten! Si te parece familiar, es que es el papá de la Club Med Mini Box! Diseñé esta primero y luego la adapté de tal manera que la CM solo usará medio cardstock. Esta se llama Tall Boy Box!

Love,

A quick gift! and the template

This is a super quick gift (a post it note holder) I did for a friend a few days ago! I almost forget to send something handmade!! so I run to do this with her favorite color! Hope she likes everything in the package!

Here is the template I create for this, hope you can use this template and have fun with it!

















I use the crop-a-dile to do the holes! and is very easy and quick!

A little bit about me! I just have to tell you that I am in my physical therapies and working a lot to get better soon! Thanks God, that I am doing much better with the exercises! but still afraid or something, do not ask me what! I hope to continue as I am doing now and be available to start with my workshops soon!

I hope to take pictures of the last things I have done in the last days! I was pretty bussy with therapies and Continued education (I am a Professional Counselor, but I am not working on that right now).

I know that I owe you a tutorial for the 8000 hits!! and I noticed that I have 9000 now!! YIKES! but I promised I am going to do it better when I start walking by myself is kind of hard to move with only one foot!

Have fun!

Love,
Diana
