Stop Making Boring Gift Boxes! 🍂 This Flip-Top Design Changes Everything

Hey friends! 👋

Okay, I have to tell you about this box because I am OBSESSED. 😍 If you've been making the same old gift boxes, it's time to switch things up — because this one has a flip-top lid, and it is SO fun to open (and honestly, kind of addicting to make too).

I made three versions of this box because I wanted to share with you a few different choices. 🙈

Each one gets topped off with pretty fall leaves and a sweet "grateful for you" sentiment tag, because can you ever really have too many leaves in autumn? Nope. 🍂✨

Here's the best part: this little box isn't just cute to look at — it actually holds stuff! Tuck in a small gift, some treats, or a little love note for someone. It's perfect for teacher gifts, neighbor treats, or just because you want to make someone smile this season. 💛

Go check out the full video for the step-by-step, then come tell me which of the three versions is YOUR favorite! 👇

Happy crafting! 🧡

xoxo, Angie

Perfect DIY Christmas Gift Box

'Tis the Season Gift Box 🎄🎁

Hey friends! 👋

I am SO excited to share this one with you today — a scalloped Christmas gift box that's as sweet to look at as it is to fill! 🥰

This little beauty starts with Stampin'up! Peaceful Pine cardstock and that gorgeous Scalloped Christmas Cheer Bundle. (I mean, could it BE any more festive? 😍). I layered on a red Timeless Metallic Specialty DSP and the Timeless Christmas Designer Series Paper and tucked in a sweet holly leaf and berry embellishment in the corner. Then I heat-embossed "'Tis the Season" in crisp white across the front — that little pop of shimmer just makes it, don't you think? ✨ A red, white, and green twine bow ties the whole thing together (literally!). 🎀

Here's the best part — this box isn't just pretty on the outside. Pop it open and you've got plenty of room for a small gift OR a stash of treats. I filled mine with Ghirardelli peppermint bark because... well, obviously. 🍫🎄 It's the perfect little something for a neighbor, teacher, or that friend who always says "you shouldn't have!" (but secretly loves it when you do). 😉

Grab your supplies and follow along in the video — I'll walk you through every fold and layer step by step! 👇

Happy crafting, friends! 🎅💚❤️

DIY Christmas Gift Box with a Peek-a-Boo Window! 🎄🍬

Hey friends! I am SO happy to be back here sharing new Christmas projects with you — it's been a minute, but I've missed this so, so much! 🥰 And what better way to jump back in than with a treat box that's basically begging to be gifted?

This little Christmas Gift Box has a special trick up its sleeve: a window that shows off exactly what's tucked inside! No guessing, no shaking the box wondering what's in there — just a sweet little sneak peek of the goodies waiting for whoever gets to open it. I tucked in a bag of Ghirardelli Peppermint Bark Minis, and honestly? I don't think anyone could say no to that. 🍫✨

To dress it up, I went with a Pecan Pie base and layered on the cutest Timeless Christmas Designer Series Paper. Then came my favorite part — a gingerbread man (be still my heart 🧡), a stitched red ribbon tied into a bow, and a hand-lettered "Merry Christmas" tag to finish it off. There's even a scalloped snowflake border along the bottom that just makes it feel extra festive.

This box would be perfect for: 🎁 Teacher gifts 🎁 Neighbor and friend gifts 🎁 Stocking stuffers 🎁 Or just because you love someone and peppermint bark exists!

Thank you all so much for sticking around and welcoming me back with open arms. I can't wait to keep the Christmas crafting coming! 🎄💕

Hey Friends,

First I want to Update you to what has been happening, I will do a video at a later date with full explanation. It's been a Wild Ride! So for those who don’t know or who have been wondering where I have gone. I'm still here. My G-mail and YouTube Channel was hacked. It has been a super stressful journey, but I finally got my issue into the right hands and they are helping me get my channel back. I don’t know how long it will take, but please be patient because I don’t  have any control over the situation. I will try to keep you informed here on my blog.

I decided to just post a Fall Gift Box here without a video but I will put a PDF as I normally do below. I wanted to share some of the new products coming in September. For those of you who are my customers you will still get a Catalog if you have purchased within the last six months. I'm behind with mailing out catalog requests because I have spend hours on my computer as you probably can imagine. I will definitely work on getting those to you ASAP.

This Gift Box was so fun because I used the New Foiling Dies for the leaves and they are gorgeous. If you don't have the foiling sytem you can use the Elegant Leaves Bundle coming on September 1st. So many great bundles coming. Also the August Product of the Month is the beautiful designer series paper I show here called Glow of Harvest, it's a Specialty Designer Series Paper and it's $5.00 when you order $75.00 or more.

Hello Everyone, 

I'm so sorry but my Gmail was hacked along with my YouTube Channel. Im trying to figure out how I can get it back which is no easy task because there is no phone numbers for YouTube or Google support. It's a real mess and I'm devastated. Its 13 years of my YouTube channel and hundreds of video's. If anyone can help me in any way, if you know someone who works for Google or YouTube I can contact. Ive been through everything. I dont know what will happen. I'm thinking of getting a new channel, but not sure if I can. I lost faith in what this world has become. I'm just a average girl trying to share what I love and make a living. Please be patient and I will keep you updated here on my blog. Love and Miss you all my friends!

DIY Halloween Pumpkin Box | Perfect for Treats 🎃

Hi friends! I am SO excited to share today's project with you — a super cute DIY Fall Pumpkin Treat Box. 🧡

I know, I know... I just wrapped up my whole Christmas in July series (can you believe it?! 🎄), but I couldn't wait one more second to jump into some spooky-cute Halloween crafting with you all!

This little box is 3" x 3" x 2-1/2" base, but the real magic is in that scalloped lid edge — it mimics the ridges of a pumpkin so perfectly, and paired with a rolled cardstock stem, curled paper "vines," and some linen thread, it just says pumpkin the second you see it. 🎃✨

This box is begging to be filled with all your favorite treats — candy corn, mini chocolate bars, or those adorable Reese's Pumpkins are calling my name already! It'd also be perfect for a teacher gift, a neighbor surprise, or just a sweet little something for your favorite trick-or-treater. 🍬

I'll have the full tutorial up on my YouTube channel Below with all the step-by-step details, measurements, and scoring instructions here on my blog so you can make your own.

Quick Christmas Tree Treat Box | Paper Crafting DIY

 Stampin'up! Demonstrator, Angie Pyjas

Quick Christmas Tree Treat Box 🎄

Hi friends! Can you believe it — this is the LAST project in my Christmas in July series this year! 😭🎉 And I saved a fun one for you, because today's project is for Quick & Easy Wednesday, which means it's simple, it's fast, and it is SO stinkin' cute.

Say hello to my Christmas Tree Treat Box! 🌲✨

I love that this one goes full 3D — my favorite kind of project to make (and hopefully your favorite kind to watch me make 😁). It's built from layers of die-cut circles, stacked up like the branches of a little evergreen, so it comes together way faster than it looks like it should.

Why I Love This Project

Honestly, this is exactly the kind of project I  love! Layering circles into a tree shape is such a simple technique, but the payoff is SO cute, and it comes together quickly enough for a Quick & Easy Wednesday. If you've got extra circle die cuts sitting in your scraps pile, this is the perfect project to use them up. 🙌

That wraps up my Christmas in July series for this year, friends! Thank you so much for crafting along with me all month — I had so much fun dreaming up these treat boxes, and I hope you did too. 💚 Be sure to check out the full video for all the details on how I put this Christmas Tree Treat Box together!

See you soon with more Holiday Crafting!

Christmas Hexagon Gift Box | DIY Paper Craft

 Angie Pyjas, Stampin'up Demonstrator

DIY Hexagon Christmas Gift Box 🎄📦

You guys, I am SO excited to share this one with you! 😍 This might be my favorite project from this whole Christmas in July series so far — it's a big, beautiful hexagon gift box, and I made it in two different colorways because I honestly couldn't pick just one! 🙈

This box is a good size, friends — we're talking room for a real stash of sweet treats, or even a small gift if that's more your style. 🎁 It closes up with the prettiest ribbon bow on top, and I finished each one off with a scalloped "Most Wonderful Time of the Year" tag, because... well, isn't it? 🥰

I made a fun green version with a cardinal and little pine trees, and a classic red-and-white version with a poinsettia patchwork look — and I genuinely can't decide which one I love more. Maybe you can help me decide? 👇

Six sides means six chances to mix and match your favorite Christmas patterned paper, so this one is SO fun to customize to your own style.

Grab your supplies and let's make this one together — full step-by-step tutorial is in the video below! 🎥✨

As always, thanks so much for being here and crafting along with me. Can't wait to see your versions!

Your DIY Christmas Fun Fold Cards Just Got a Serious Upgrade!

 Angie Pyjas, Independent Stampin'up! Demonstrator

Your DIY Christmas Cards Just Got a Serious Upgrade! 🎄✨

Hey friends! Welcome back to another Christmas in July project — and today's is a FUN one (literally, it's a Fun Fold card 😉).

I don't know about you, but I am always looking for ways to make my handmade cards feel a little extra special. A flat card is great, but there's something so satisfying about a card that does something when you open it. That's exactly what this Fun Fold card delivers — it opens up to reveal a sweet "Christmas Joy" sentiment tucked right in the middle, and it's guaranteed to make whoever receives it smile before they even read the words. 🥰

Why I love a Fun Fold card

If you haven't tried a Fun Fold before, this is a great one to start with! It's easier than it looks, and the "reveal" moment when the card opens makes it feel so much more special than a standard card — perfect for gifting or even just displaying on a mantel over the holidays.

I'll be walking through the whole process step by step in the video, so grab your Stampin'up! Pretty Poinsettias Bundle and the A stitched Season Designer Series Paper and let's make some magic together! 🎬

As always, thanks so much for stopping by — I'd love to know in the comments what you think of this one, and if Fun Fold cards are something you'd like to see more of this Christmas in July season!

Happy crafting! 💕
