I love the versatility of Stampin’ Up! products – we can use our papers, inks and stamps for making cards, making gifts/tags and documenting life. I recently made small gifts for some of my team members who’ve reached milestones as demonstrators. I was just as excited by the packaging of the gifts I shared as I was with the gifts and card that were included inside. Today I want to share these gifts as a fun idea for gift giving:
While Stampin’ Up!’s Mini Pizza Boxes (retired, white boxes that perfectly fit small gifts that are housed on top of my paper shelf) are retired and gone, I still have a stash that I use for little gifts. I reached for my Mini Pizza Boxes to package a few goodies and accidentally pulled down two gold Mini Pizza Boxes. Knowing there are lots of shiny gold products to decorate these shiny boxes, I was excited with that choice.
I’ve decorated these boxes with all-new products that I’m excited to share. Here’s a closer look at the design on top of my gold box:
Here are the new products featured on the box lid, working from the bottom layer to the top (links to all of these products are provided later in this post):
- A Pretty Peacock cardstock square serves as the base for the box top design.
- I added a square of the Shining Brightly Specialty Designer Series Paper to the Pretty Peacock base. I love the Very Vanilla and gold foil designs!
- I added a strip of Pretty Peacock cardstock and a sentiment (stamped with the Colors & Contours stamp set using Pretty Peacock ink on Thick Very Vanilla cardstock and cropped with the Scalloped Contours Dies). The sentiment says everything I want it to say.
- I added three gold Adhesive-Backed Sparkle Gems to add a little extra shine to the project.
Here’s a look at the gorgeous patterns and colors in the Shining Brightly Specialty Designer Series Paper (which was unorderable late last week but back in stock this week)
The gold/Very Vanilla and gold/Night of Navy designs in the Shining Brightly papers are amazing. I love the green-blue tones of rich Pretty Peacock and love the way it looks with gold. If you love this combination of Very Vanilla, gold and Pretty peacock as much as I do, I hope you’ll save this for future reference:
Stamps: Color & Contours Papers: Shining Brightly Specialty Designer Series Paper, Pretty Peacock, Thick Very Vanilla Inks: Pretty Peacock Accessories: Scalloped Contours Dies, Adhesive-Backed Sparkle Gems, Gold Mini Pizza Boxes (retired), Stampin’ Dimensionals
Price: $10.00
I hope you like these little projects. Please come back tomorrow so I can give you a peek at the 3″ x 3″ cards that were tucked inside these boxes. ♥
Thanks for stopping by today!

Lovely boxes and love the pop of Pretty Peacock!
These are beautiful, Brian. I really love our little boxes. The current Scalloped Boxes that hold a gift card are great and I’ve bought so many this year, for a craft show I’m doing in October. The gift card fits snugly into a cardboard piece, and there’s plenty of room to put a small gift of candy or lotion under it. I am sure your team members will love your gift! A nice gesture from you, packaged so perfectly,
