Boo! Halloween Tubes & Pillow Boxes by Tangii

Hey yall, Tangii here.  For today's post I put together some Halloween goodies for the neighborhood kiddo's.  I started out playing with some Clear Tubes and then couldn't really stop myself, lol. and I added some small Kraft Pillow Boxes.

I grabbed some Fall candy from the store to fill up the Tubes (M&M's, Caramels & Candy Corn Assortment) and a couple of sticker sheets to decorate with.  I chose to use Stickers By The Dozen: Halloween and We've Got Your Stickers: Treats.  I just used 1 sheet of each, I was trying to keep this as an affordable idea, I figured I could make at least 10 more tubes with the 2 sheets I grabbed.

I liked that the stickers had a clear background so the candies showed through.  For those "tags" at the top, I grabbed some of these great Punched Pieces (they come in 3 sizes), I chose a small layered on a medium.  To fill in some of the space on the medium circle I used a Black & a White Gel Reminisce Pen to add some dots.  I wrapped some Black & Orange Twine around the tube a few times, then tied a bow through the tags.

And finally, these adorable little Pillow Boxes!  I LOVE that they come in Kraft (also available in clear)!!  I added a few of the stickers from the same 2 sheets, closed them up and secured them with some great Orange Jute!  I LOVE how easily these all came together (seriously, I worked on them while doing laundry!).  Between the "quick & easy" and the "easily affordable", I will be making these for all of our Trick-or-Treaters!

For these projects I used Clear Tubes, Pillow Boxes, Stickers By The Dozen: Halloween, We've Got Your Stickers: Treats, Punched Pieces, Black & White Gel Reminisce Pen, Black & Orange Twine and Orange Jute.

Happy Crafting!

Halloween Treats 4 Ways by Samantha

Hello! Samantha here, and today I'm getting ready for Halloween. I've got 4 different containers all packaged up with treats, but here's the best part: I only used one sticker sheet to decorate all 4 containers. 

I'm telling you, no matter what you have to package up, SRM has a container for that! As you can see in the photo above all 4 containers are decorated with stickers from the We've Got Your Sticker Treats sticker sheet. Here's a closer look a the different containers I chose to use and what fits inside.

First up are the pillow boxes. They come in 3 different sizes (small, medium, large) and 2 different materials (kraft and clear). The small pillow box is perfect for a handful of candy corn, while the medium size fits a couple of fun sized candy bars or bags. The clear are a great way to show off brightly colored candy, while the kraft are great for making your treat a surprise. 

One of my all time favorite SRM products are the clear tubes, but if you're looking for something just a bit different this time around (and something that won't roll away from you), these tall thin clear boxes are super fun. I stuffed mine with 4 pieces of licorice, but smaller candies like Rollos, M&M's, Skittles, Kisses, and the like fit wonderfully in this box. 

The last box I decorated was a kraft window box. This comes in a few different sizes, but I chose the 4 1/8" x 4 1/8" size. This box fits 3-4 fun sized candies in it. You also get the best of both worlds; both a clear window and a kraft box to decorate with stickers. You can even match your stickers (pumpkin sticker) to your candy (Reeses Pumpkin) like I did. 

And that's it guys! All you need is one sheet of stickers to decorate all these treats...and you'll even have stickers left over to use in your planner or scrapbook. 

Valentine Treat Boxes by Shelly

Hey y'all! Shelly, here!  It's Day #3 of Valentine Week here on the SRM Blog.

Today I'm swinging on in to share some easy and fun Valentine treat boxes!

To start, I used some kraft pillow boxes. Which I chose a large one and a small one. Once having my pillow boxes chosen, I added some fun arrow paper to each of them. 

After, I added my red jute twine and my sentiment pieces. (for my sentiment pieces, I added each sticker to cardstock and then simply cut them out.)

So what do you think?!...Fun and easy, yeah?!...

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Enjoy your day and see you soon!

Oh so excited to have Virginia Lu as a guest designer here on the SRM Blog today!  What a great way to kick off the week!

We are honored to have Virginia playing with our Jane's Doodles Stamps, SRM Clear Sticker Stitches, SRM Chalkboard Makers, Kraft Pillow Boxes and Twine.  She is an incredible crafter and everything she does is perfection.  Here are some of the supplies Virginia used.

So without further ado…here are Virginia's beautiful projects with descriptions in her own words.

Hello friends!  As a design team alumni for SRM Stickers (2011 and 2013), I am so happy to be back here to share my guest design projects with you. The SRM products keep getting better and better. The varieties are awesome for any paper-crafters and event planners. I have used the SRM products many times for my own special occasions from wedding, birthday and dinner parties.

As an avid stamper, no post would be complete without sharing a card with you.

I love the Jar image from SRM's Jane’s Doodle Stamp “Life is Good”. I paired it up SRM doily. With some paper-piecing, this card is rather fun to create.



My 2nd project is to create watercolor tags. I also used “Life is Good” stamp set.  These small tags are handy to have and great for using on SRM's kraft pillow boxes wrapped in a doily and twine.

For my 3rd project, I created two large tags. I love creating my own watercolor paper! With SRM's chalk board markers, it’s easy to add the personal touches.

These tags can be for food displays or gift toppers. While I was at it, I also added the SRM Sticker Stitches to dress up the wooden clips!

I hope that you are inspired by my ideas and designs.  I so enjoyed creating them!

Can you say YUM about these fabulous SRM products?

Christmas Pillow Boxes by Michele

Good morning! Michele here with Christmas pillow boxes just in time for the upcoming holiday! I wanted to add a bit of interest to the box, so I used a stencil, embossing paste, and silver embossing powder. 

I layered the doily over the box.  I added pink and purple snowflakes to the center.  In the center of the snowflakes I used a pink punched piece.  I added glossy accents to it and sprinkled it with glitter.  I then added coordinating ribbon to the center. 

As a fun final touch, I added jingle bells.  They have become my newest obsession! (As if I don't have enough!) ;) 

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Wishing you a very Merry Christmas!

Guest Designer - Roberta Rosi

What a treat to have Roberta Rosi join us today as a guest designer. Based in Milan, Italy,  Roberta has that Italian fabulous sense of style and design. We are so pleased to have her back on the blog, if even for just a day. 



 Roberta has created a trio of DIY gift boxes for Christmas using all 3 sizes of SRM's kraft pillow boxes, some Take 2 Christmas stickers,  6" paper doilies, green twine and white punched pieces.

Love how bold and beautiful the small pillow box is decorated with a Merry Christmas sticker mounted on a medium white Punched Piece.  Roberta added eyelets to both sides of the sticker and threaded some green twine through.    

The medium pillow box is coordinated by using one of the Take 2 borders, some green twine and another Merry Christmas sticker attached. Love how everything is green and coordinates. 

And for the large pillow box Roberta added a 6" white doily, wrapped it with green twine and topped it off with another Merry Christmas sticker.  

What a lovely trio of Christmas cheer!  What perfect little gift boxes.  Or stocking stuffers!  What would you tuck inside?

Thank you Roberta for joining us today.  We love what you do with SRM!

Come back soon!  We'd love to see what else you are doing with your SRM Sticker stash.

Doily Covered Boxes by Michelle

Michelle Giraud has created a wonderful idea using SRM's new Kraft Pillow Boxes and doilies.

The first box is a little wedding favor using the Large Kraft Pillow Box and the 6" Doily.  Michelle folded the doily over the back of the pillowbox and secured with a touch of hot glue.  The Mr. & Mrs sticker is a Take 2-Stickers by the Dozen Wedding and is adhered to 2 of the Punched Pieces scalloped circles in white & black.  The bow and the circles were also hot glued on to the box.

For her second box, Michelle used the Small Kraft Pillow box as the base for a Christmas box to create a gold embellished look.  The 4" round gold lace doily was the perfect size and was hot glued to the front of the small box and the excess just fits to cover the sides of the folded box.  Michelle used Take 2 - Stickers by the Dozen Christmas for the sentiment and adhered it to a medium green Punched Piece.  Michelle decorated the Punched Piece with a white pen giving it little dots on each of the scallops.  This would be a perfect gift box for jewelry!  

Doilies and Kraft Pillow Boxes are a perfect combination.  Thanks Michelle for giving us some great ways to use them together.  

Kraft Pillow Boxes by Yvonne

Yvonne Yam loves the new Kraft Pillow Boxes from SRM!  And she loves how easy it is to dress them up.  

For the medium kraft pillow box, Yvonne stamped text all over it.  Then she added the Thank You Take 2 Sentiment mounted on a black Punched Piece.  

For the small kraft box, Yvonne used 4 small scalloped Punched Pieces cut in half to create a focal point.  She then added a sticker sentiment strip from the Take 2 Thank You design.  

What a fun and fabulous pair of pillow boxes.  So much fun!

Here are the supplies Yvonne used for this project:

Punched pieces:  black, teal, green & red
