Today’s freebie template is a mini squish box (or mini explosion box). This template requires absolutely no adhesive which means that it can get put together really quickly. I really, really love this box and I know you will too.
This template can be downloading from the ‘Freebies’ section.
I had a request for a couple of Hanukkah templates and here is what I came up with; A Star of David gift box and a Dreidel Gift Box.
The Dreidel Box turned out so cute and is quite easy to put together. It opens at one end so you can fill it with your favorite holiday treats. The template comes complete with the four Hebrew letters which you can cut out.
I also drew a ‘Star of David’ gift box. Of the two templates, this one is the harder one to assemble. It isn’t hard but you really need to be accurate with this one as the pre-measured sides are precise. If your score lines are off, the template won’t go together as clean as it should.
Both templates are available for purchase in my Paper Templates Webstore and both come with assembly directions.
Enjoy!
I’ve had so many requests for these two shapes so I’ve put them together for this week’s freebie download. If you have a request, by all means, shoot me an email and I’ll see what I can do.
First up is a butterfly pattern similar to the one that appears on the cover of the Stampin’ Up! catalogue. The template contains two butterflies.
And last, but certainly not least, we have a pattern similar to the ‘Top Note’ die that is available for The Big Shot die cutting machine. This template contains two patterns (one smaller than the other) so that can be layered together.
Both templates can be dowloaded from the ‘Freebies’ section.
Enjoy!
I know it’s only fall but it certainly feels like winter around my house. The flu season has begun and has took aim at my youngest child, Jenna. Since Friday we have been battling a 103 degree fever, dry cough, sore throat, and just general nastiness. I am literally going on one hour of sleep today as my daughter turns into the most cranky, clingy child when she’s ill and her inner beast emerges every night from the hours of 12am and 5am. Ugh! Goodness knows there is no job on earth harder than that of a mother.
Anyway, on to today’s template! I received an email from one of my blog readers - hi Audrey! - who asked if I would be able to create a Christmas template that would be suitable for a table centerpiece. I had created this sleigh template last year but did very little with it. I took another jab at it today, modifying the rails so that it would be able to withstand some weight. I only wish I knew how to use my camera to take stunning photos for you.
This template is available for purchase in my Paper Templates Webstore.
As most women do, I love to shop. I could literally shop til I dropped. While on one of my excursions to the ‘big city’, I saw the most delightful purse on display in a shop window. The bottom portion of the purse was black and the top portion was the most beautiful shade of lime green. It was calling my name and putting on it’s best ‘come hither’ look (yes, purses really can do this!) so I obeyed its orders and went inside for a closer inspection. When I looked at the price tag I almost choked. My mind began racing! Should I or shouldn’t I? I began wondering how much money I could get for my first born son! Thankfully, my love for my child brought me back to my senses. I stroked and fondled the purse, blew it a kiss, then left the store in a hurry.
All I have now are fond memories and today’s template. This is my version, albeit a paper one, of that gorgeous, gorgeous speciman.
Download the template. Oops. Time’s up!
Nicole made this sample template for us a few weeks ago. I have since updated and modified the template a little bit. I hope to make a purse myself later on today, after the kiddies go to school. Until then, I leave you with Nicole’s creation.
