Teacher Appreciation Gifts Gable Box

May 7th is Teacher Appreciation Week and as a gift to the teachers in my school, I have chosen to make this cute little "Gable Box" that is created from a single sheet of 8 1/2" x 11" paper. I stamped directly on the paper after I scored and cut, but before folding and glueing. The belly band around the box is 1" thick and 12" long. I put the teacher's first name monogram on each box to personalize it.


For the treat inside, I have placed 5 cookies inside a plastic bag with a twisty-tie.

KISS... Keep it Simple Stamping

Simplicity...cased this card from Mercedes Weber and just had to make one of my own. The original didn't have any embossing, but I can never leave well enough alone. On my second card I added the Perfect Polka Dots Textured Impressions Embossing Folder Die #117335.  After I finished the second card, I was surprised. My motto of "embossed is better" didn't hold up on this card...guess there is a first for everything! I still like both and the design is certainly appealing.
