After sharing the adorable stocking pillow box and WOW! video demonstration on yesterday’s post here, I decided it would be helpful to dedicate a new WOW! video to creating a just the pillow box (also using the Trim Your Stocking Thinlits Dies) without the stocking.
Click on the video above to watch.
I love hearing from you! Please leave me your questions or comments about the project for today.
STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- Trim Your Stocking Thinlits Dies are fabulous for year round use. I discuss what the dies can do in my video from yesterday.
- Today’s autumn pillow box is created by cropping the pillow box die twice. My video above shares tips to make assembly easier!
- My plan is to make 30 of these for my 30 guests coming for Thanksgiving. Perfect for a couple yummy Ghirardelli chocolates.
- The “thankful” sentiment is from Stampin’ Up! Painted Harvest Stamp Set. It’s cropped with a die from Leaflets Framelits Dies.
- Stampin’ Up! Color Theory Designer Series Paper stack has a beautiful ombre option that I used for the Old Olive “thankful” leaf. Color Theory Designer Series Paper Stack is part of the Buy 3 Get 1 DSP FREE sale. Ends Oct. 31.
- The Magnetic Platform keeps the leaf die in place over the sentiment during it’s trip through the Big Shot.
- A mix of Old Olive, Tangerine Tango, Pumpkin Pie, Cajun Craze and Fresh Fig “greens” are layered for texture and color.
- Today’s pillow box was inspired by Heather Nichols and her pillow box at this pinterest pin.

I love this, Mary! The leaves are beautifully layered in gorgeous colors – such a wonderful presentation.
I appreciate your sweetness, Brian. I think it looks pretty spiffy and should be lovely for Thanksgiving!
Thanks Mary for this step-by-step video on how to use just the pillow box die. I think the Trim Your Stocking Thinlits Dies really give you a BIG BANG for your buck!
You are very welcome, Kadie. I was determined to make it easy and fun!
