Coffee Gift Card Box
Hi Everyone!
Elizabeth here with another post for DeNami Designs. I know a lot of coffee drinkers but personally I’m not one of them. I don’t like coffee at all. So I struggle with what to get coffee loving friends and family. Then I figured out that there is no better gift than a gift card to their favorite coffee shop and for most of my friends and family that is Starbucks. I used Starbucks colors as the inspiration for making a gift card box.
This project is very easy and fast to make, so you can make lots of them for birthdays, holidays and even parties! First I made the gift card box using a pillow box die. I chose a pattern paper that is white with green polka dots. Assembling the boxes easy! Just fold the 2 score lines that die creates for you and use tape runner or liquid glue on the tab. The ends of the box have flaps that you just fold in. One of the flaps has a notch and I do recommend folding that flap in first to get a clean look. Next, I stamps the Medium Happy-Cino on smooth white cardstock and colored it in with Copic markers. I kept the coloring simple by not doing any shading but if you want to, you can because the image is large enough. I used a scalloped circle punch to cut out the coffee and then adhered it with liquid glue. I hope that you enjoyed my project for today and that it inspires you to make some fun gift card boxes!

Week of Gifts and Favors- Day 2 Pillow Boxes and Milk Cartons
Hello DeNami Friends!
Giving small treats is always fun and when you have a cute
little box to put them in it’s even better! A lot of DeNami’s designs are
perfect for projects like these!
For these projects I used dies to cut the pattern papers and
assemble the gift boxes. The pattern papers came from a 6x6 pads that I bought
specifically with these in mind. I assembled the boxes using a tape runner. For
the images I picked a couple of different stamps and stamped them in Copic
friendly ink on white cardstock. I kept the coloring simple with Copic markers.
To cut out the images I used a scalloped punch and adhered them with foam tape
to the boxes. These are fun and simple little boxes that you can create in a
snap! I hope that you enjoyed my projects! Until next time!

Week of Gifts and Favors- Day 1 For the Kitchen
Hello, DeNami Design Friends!
This
week our design team is sharing ideas for gifts and favors. When I saw
this little C117 Chef Owl, I instantly fell in love! He is so totally
cute!!! For my project today I created tags to decorate some simple
party favors. These would be perfect for a housewarming party or a soup
exchange party.
I
die-cut three tags from white cardstock and then die-cut the bottom of
each tag with a scalloped border. I stamped the C117 Chef Owl onto each
tag and added color with markers. I stamped the sentiment below the
image and attached a strip of patterned paper to the bottom. To finish, I
punched a hole in the top and threaded some baker’s twine through. So
simple---which is key when you want to make multiples for party favors.
I tied the tags onto pairs of wooden spoons and colorful spatulas:
Isn’t that fun?!?! Here’s a closer look:
I hope you like my party favor idea for today!!!
Thanks for visiting!

Week of Easter- Day 3
Hello DeNami Friends!
Today, I've got some goodies to share with you. This week's theme is Easter, and when I think of Easter, I immediately think of my favorite treat: Cadbury mini eggs...i.e. chocolatey goodness!!! I decided to make a clear goodie box filled with the chocolate eggs; I also decided to make a goodie bag filled with tiny toy "blind bags" for my girls. Of course I had to make cute gift tags for the goodies, and I used DeNami's E202 Bunny and Easter Eggs.
For the clear box: First, I filled my CB500 Clear Boutique Box with lots of Cadbury mini eggs. Then, I got to work making my tag. I stamped the Bunny and Easter Eggs stamp on some white cardstock, and colored the image with markers. I punched out the image with a 1" circle punch. I also punched out a scalloped circle (approximately 1.5") from a piece of patterned paper. I attached the bunny circle to the patterned paper with a foam square. To finish off my tag, I covered the Easter eggs with some glossy glue, and punched a hole for my baker's twine. I tied my tag to the clear box, and I love the way it turned out.
For the goodie bag: I made the bag out of aqua colored cardstock and a goodie bag die. Then I made my tag exactly like I did for the clear box, but instead of punching a circle and scalloped circle, I die cut the stamped image and the patterned paper using oval dies so they looked like eggs. For this tag, I also added some puffy heart stickers.
I really hope you like my projects. I know my girls will!

Same Cards Three Ways Day 3
Hello DeNami Friends!
Today, I created 3 of the same cards in different color schemes using 2 DeNami
stamps: E205 Cupcake Owl Trio and J117 Medium Birthday Circle.
First, I
decided what color combinations I wanted to use. I made a navy/teal,
purple/pastel pink, and red/pink card. On a piece of white cardstock, I
stamped the Cupcake Owl Trio 3 times, leaving
plenty of space between them. I used Copic markers to color in the
images, keeping in mind the color combinations I decided on. Then,
using my glue pen and sparkle glitter, I added some shine to the poms on
the party hats and the heart on the cupcake wrap.
I set that aside to dry. Meanwhile, I die cut 3 rectangles from white
cardstock. Then, I die cut a circle out of each of the die
cut rectangles. Using ombre inks, I stamped the Medium Birthday Circle
around each die cut circle. Next, I cut out the Cupcake
Owls that I had colored. Using foam tape, I adhered the Birthday
circle stamped cardstock on top of the colored Cupcake owls, making sure
the owls were in the center of the circle. Then, I chose 3 patterned
papers to match my color schemes and die cut a
large rectangle out of each. I glued the patterned papers to each of
my white card bases, and then the Birthday & Owl panel on top. To
finish off my cards, I die cut some twine and small bows in coordinating
colored cardstock, and attached it to my card.
I trimmed off the excess, and added some glossy glue to the top of the
bows.

Sending You Love Valentine Card
Hello DeNami Friends!
Today, I've
got a Valentine card that is perfect to give a friend! While at
Starbucks the other day, I saw these cute heart gift cards, and I
thought they would be so cute on a hand made card!
Immediately, I thought of 2 DeNami stamps that I thought would be
perfect: CL-C118 Owl in a Tea Cup and CL-F171 Sending You Love. I hope
you like my non-traditional Valentine's day card!
I cut a piece
of watercolor paper to make a top folding A2 sized card (11" x 4.5").
After scoring the paper in half, I masked off the back portion of the
card base, and blended some coral ink.
I concentrated the color more on the bottom creating an ombre look.
Then I repeatedly stamped the Owl in a Tea Cup image with black ink.
On a few of the stamped images, I colored in the hearts with a glue
pen, and sprinkled some Sparklets glitter on top.
After dusting off the excess, I set it aside to dry. I die cut
another piece of watercolor paper with a rectangle stitched die. I
stamped my Sending You Love sentiment with Versamark ink and heat set
with gold embossing powder. I then popped up the sentiment
piece up with foam tape and adhered it to the stamped coral card base.
I threaded some orange twine through the hole in the gift card, and
attached it on top using just a tiny piece of foam tape, so it'll be
easy for the recipient to remove.
Quick tip:
When repeatedly stamping, it's best to start in a corner and work out.
If you just randomly start stamping, you might get a few spots where
your spacing is not quite right.
