Build A Cupcake: Punch Art Gift Tags
A few weeks ago I shared this fun little Take-Out Box gift with the Create A Cupcake stamp set tag. The box itself is built from the Petal Cone Die for Big Shot (check out some other Petal Cone Die ideas).
The Create A Cupcake stamp set (see it online) and the matching Build A Cupcake Punch (see it online) are two of my fav items from the Mini Catalog. This tag and take-out box (via the Petal Cone Die–see it online) are projects from my recent Stampin’ Up! Workshops.
Here I wanted to share 2 Video Tutorials for this fun project.
Tutorial 1: Create A Cupcake Gift Tag — learn how to make the most of your ink pads with the Stampin’ Off technique, plus tips for Punch Art with the Build A Cupcake Punch.
Tutorial 2: Petal Cone Die Take-Out Box — another fabulous idea for this flexible die for Big Shot. Learn how to score and fold to create a sweet treat container.
Be sure to check out some of my other Video Tutorials!
Happy Stamping!

Can you picture this? I walked out to my mailbox one day, opened the door and pulled out a pile of junk mail… plus… my Occasions Mini Catalog! I ran back to the house (because of my excitement, not necessarily because I was out at the curb with no shoes on in 10 degree weather) and my first flip-through of the catalog stopped right at page 22…
No way, matching CUPCAKE stamps and punch?! Too sweet! (pun intended)
Okay, you’ve got me. Yes, this experience may have been recreated for my blog (since we got to play with this cute stamp set back at the Founder’s Circle Retreat last fall) but really, can’t you imagine the excitement?
The Create A Cupcake stamp set (see it online) and the matching Build A Cupcake Punch (see it online) are two of my fav items from the Mini Catalog. This tag and take-out box (via the Petal Cone Die–see it online) are projects from my recent Stampin’ Up! Workshops.
I’ve made these little boxes as Hostess Gifts. You could have one if you’d like to host a party, too! No cupcakes included though, except the cute one on the tag.
Keep an eye out tomorrow for my newest Video Tutorial! Or check out some of my other recent Petal Cone Die projects (including yesterday’s Easter Carrot).

Meep Meep… What’s Up Doc?
Bugs Bunny would love these! Or maybe not, since there are no actual carrots involved. But Easter is coming, and bunnies of all age will love this fun Easter treat idea.
The cone is created from the Petal Cone Die (see it online) for the Big Shot (see it online), and the leafy greens at the top are from the half scallop circle on the same die.
I created the texture on the carrot with the Textures Plates Kit #4 (also for the Big Shot — see it online), and added the Fine Supernova Glitter (see it online) with the 2-Way Glue Pen (see it online).
Here is the Tutorial for this project:
- Die cut two Petal Cone pieces in Tangerine Tango, and texture each one with the paisley Texturz Plate. Trim off the half circles at the top of each piece. Use Sticky Strip to attach the pieces together.
- Cut 4 Wild Wasabi half Scallops and trim the last 2 scallops from each corner as shown. Cut between each scallop, leaving about 1/2″ uncut at the bottom. Attach with Sticky Strip to the ‘carrot’
- Use a 2-Way Glue Pen and Fine Supernova Glitter in orange to decorate your paisley.
- Assemble carrot. *TIP* The easiest way to assemble the box is to lay it flat and fold both ends to the center, attaching in the middle. The box will pop up perfectly aligned every time.
- On two opposite sides, trim away the ‘leaves’ to make room for your ribbon. Use a Crop-A-Dile to add a Jumbo Pewter Eyelet on each side.
- Tie the Peach Parfait Stitched Poly-Ribbon at each side.
Are you in love with the Petal Cone Die yet? I sure am!! Be sure to check out some of my recent Petal Cone Die projects, including my Petal Cone Scrapbook Tutorial.
Be sure to stop over to my Stamping Studio for Stamp Club with Meg this month (Wednesday, March 10th and Thursday, March 11th) if you’d like to make this Easter carrot treat holder in person! Drop me an email for more details.
Happy Stamping!

Spring Is Here: Build a blossom with petals to celebrate
I’m looking at the thermometer and we’re at 57 degrees today! Wahoo!! Really, this is pretty exciting after the winter snows. I realize that it may not last, but for the moment, I’m stamping for Spring.
Here is a bouquet of ideas for the Build A Blossom stamp set (see it online) and the coordinating Blossom Petals Punch (see it online):
If you’re already signed up for my Stamps in the Mail Club, then you’ll be getting supplies and exclusive Video Tutorials for these projects in March! And if you haven’t signed up for Club yet, you can still jump in. You can check the details online and then send me an email so we can get you started!
Did you see the Blossom Bouquet in the back? That’s one of my favorite projects for this month. I used the Petal Cone Die (see it online) to create the vase for the flowers. Be sure to check out more of my recent Petal Cone Die projects.
Don’t you love how the Build A Blossom stamp set and punch also coordinate with the Fun Flowers Bigz Die (see it online) for the Big Shot (see it online)? It’s too much fun to mix and match these blooms.
Happy Stamping!

St. Patrick’s Day Treats: Petal Cone Die (with chocolate!)
It’s the “chocolate” part that got your attention, isn’t it? Yes, you can admit it to me. I’d be in the same boat. Well, I would have been, except that I’m loving the Petal Cone Die so much that it would have been enough to make me check out this blog post!
Did you see my Petal Cone Project Video Tutorial from earlier this month? Or the Petal Cone Pouch project? Today I have another Petal Cone project for you–a sweet St. Patrick’s Day treat.
The Petal Cone (see it online) here is embossed with the Perfect Polka Dot folder (see it online), then folded in half and secured with Sticky Strip.
The scallop half-circle and the banner piece are from the Petal Cone die. And the “Happy St. Patrick’s Day” is from the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set (see it online). Talk about a great stamp set–Teeny Tiny Wishes has greetings for LOTS of occasions and I find myself using it all the time.
You probably recognize the Owl from Punch Bunch (see some of my other samples). And the shamrock is one of my favorite punch creations! Here’s what you’ll need:
- one branch from the 2-Step Bird Punch (see it online)
- 4 hearts from the Small Heart Punch (see it online)
And the Shamrock Directions:
- Trim the two end leaves from the leafy branch piece
- Attach one heart to the remaining leaves to serve as the ‘base’ for the hearts
- Add the 3 remaining hearts to create the shamrock petals
- (and yes, I know that a Shamrock should have 4 leaves…feel free to add a 4th!)
This is a project from one of my home workshops recently. If you’d like to have your own party and get together to stamp with your friends, drop me an email! I’d love to get together and share this project with you in person.
Happy Stamping!
