Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator Pootles – Flower Shop Pansy Punch Vanilla Box
Ah, the simplicity of a cream coloured box with simple punched flowers makes me very happy. Don’t get me wrong, I adore DSP and beautiful patterns and designs, but I also love simple. My house is simply decorated with small decorative pieces, and that’s something that I seem to replicate in all areas of my home/garden and apparently work life. I just wish that my 3 younger sons had the same gene…. Jack, my eldest son, is also a minimalist like me. The other 3 clearly take after their Dad who’s a stuff-everywhere-and-anywhere kinda guy.
But I’m digressing here….! I wanted to share a simple box with you and offer up a couple of decorative alternatives using the same elements.
And heck, who doesn’t love the Flower Shop and matching Pansy Punch combination. It was one of the first pairs I ever bought, it was new into the catalogue that was launched shortly after I joined, and having retired 7 of 8 stamp sets that were the few that I owned, I was stocking up, and this one all but leaped into my basket and I’ve never regretted the purchase!
So I’ve shared 2 looks – simple punching of cardstock and then stamping and punching. I think I like the Linen Thread wrap better, but I like both of the floral looks.
Have a super Wednesday!

LOVE this box Sam. Thank you so much for sharing that tip, I never knew that and always struggle with punching the stamped image out.
Sam, you outdid yourself on this one! The colors are beautiful! Can’t wait to make it. I just made your bag in a box (no Cadbury for me either) for Easter table favors. Now this one for class gifts. 🙂 Thank you again for the great tutorials and inspiration.
Very sweet little box. Thanks!
Hi from Canada, luv the box, going to make one today. The stampset and punch have been a favorite. Always enjoy your tutorials. Do you have a box tutorial for gifting card collections.
