When I created the video below (shared last Saturday with a card here), I included a tag that I was determined to find a project for. A polka dot Kraft Pillow Box (new) was a quick and easy home for the tag (and just in time for a last minute Father’s Day gift). The pillow boxes go together literally in seconds and hold a treat, small gift or gift card!
MY STAMPIN’ PRETTY STEP-BY-STEP TUTORIAL:
The Stampin’ Up! Kraft Pillow Boxes are pre-cute and pre-scored. Simply press the ends in.
Crop each end of a 2 3/4 x 1 7/8 piece of Fresh Fig card stock with the tag die from Beautiful Layers Thinlits Dies. Adhere a 1 7/8 square piece of Crumb Cake card stock (cut with Layering Squares Framelits Dies and the Big Shot Die Cutting Machine) with Snail Adhesive on the Fresh Fig tag.
Ink the floral image from Beautiful Promenade Photopolymer Stamp Set in Crumb Cake and stamp off (once) on scrap paper and a second time (without re-inking) on Whisper White card stock. Layer “I Love You” in Fresh Fig ink. I used the Stampin’ Up! Stamparatus stamp positioning tool for stamping all these images with confidence. Learn more about the Stamparatus with my video demonstration here.
Crop the sentiment created above with the Big Shot, Magnetic Platform and a 1 7/8 square die from the Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies. Adhere to the Crumb Cake square using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add two Faceted Dots (Blackberry Bliss) to the flower centers.
Thread 20″ of Whisper White 1/8″ Sheer Ribbon through die cut tag ends. Adhere tag to pillow box using Stampin’ Dimensionals and tie ribbon in a bow on the right.

Hugs Frenchie ?
I adore your visits and comments, Frenchie. Thank you!
The pillow box is perfect for your cute tag. We all need quick ideas for last minute gifts. Thanks, Mary. Have a wonderful day!
Good point, HJ. More ideas for quick gifts and this is definitely a quick package!
First thing I thought of when I originally saw your tag was to hang it off a bottle of wine………BUT……this is SO MUCH BETTER!!!! Looks great wrapped around the new pillow box. Thanks for sharing!
I love the wine bottle idea, too, Kadie! Thanks for the suggestion.
Love, love this sweet little tag, perfect to embellish small boxes like your cute pillow box.
The Fresh Fig color is just like the real thing, so soft and beautiful.
Thank you for sharing Mary.

Fresh Fig has enough “earthiness” that it looks amazing with Crumb Cake!
