When I was teaching, I enjoyed being involved in the fun of Secret Santa. It usually involves picking a name out of ‘the hat’. Over the period of a couple of weeks, I would then leave a number of small, inexpensive surprises on the recipient’s desk.
For this Secret Santa gift, I made a box that would hold a number of Starbuck’s coffee capsules.
I used one of the house images from the COMING HOME STAMP SET. It was stamped twice, using Memento, before colouring them with Blends – Balmy Blue, Sahara Sand and So Saffron.
Balmy Blue was the perfect choice because it matched the colour of the pencil I used as the carrier. Along the sides of the box I added some of the CLASSIC CHRISTMAS 6″x 6″ DSP. Because the gift box is actually 6.5″ long, I cut the DSP in half to leave a gap. The gap was covered with a square piece of the card stock and a stamped and die cut coffee cup.
Three of the coffee capsules were secured in place by using some dimensionals.
The next gift box I make will hold only three capsules.
I would like to think that most people would be happy to receive this as a Secret Santa gift. Would you?
Do you take part in Secret Santa at your workplace?
Thanks for popping by … happy stamping.
These are the products I used to make this gift box. If you live in Australia, you can order any of these products through me.
