A Little Bit Festive Book Treat Box & Christmas Tags

How cute is this Book Treat Box?  I decorated it with the patterned paper and ephemera from the A Little Bit Festive 12" x 12" Mix & Match Specialty Designer Series Paper (that long name is a mouthful!).  But wait until you see what is inside the gift box...

Ephemera (pronounced ef-em-er-a): paper-based collectables or keepsakes that are used and enjoyed for a short time.

Stampin' Up! ephemera are often pre-printed, die-cut elements that pop out to decorate your projects, like the Christmas tree on the front of this gift box.  Here is a little look at the other fun ephemera pieces in the A Little Bit Festive Specialty Designer Series Paper pack... the top row shows the die-cut elements and the bottom row is the 12" x 12" patterned paper.

I have used a small disc magnet to hold the gift box closed.  These are easily adhered with Mini Glue Dots.  To open the Book Treat Box, just lift the Christmas Tree...

Hang an Ornament Stamp Set + Hang an Ornament Dies Bundle (photopolymer: 164090) - $63.00

I have paired the A Little Bit Festive Specialty Designer Series Paper with the Hang an Ornament Bundle.  Each festive tag is backed with fun patterned paper to match the cover of the Book Treat Box.  Then I have used the Hang an Ornament Bundle to stamp, die-cut, and decorate the tag fronts with Christmas tree baubles.  The baubles are colours that coordinate with the patterned paper.  One is Cherry Cobbler ink stamped on Pretty In Pink cardstock and the other is Misty Moonlight ink stamped on Pool Party cardstock.
