#1 Stampin’ Up! UK Demonstrator Pootles – A Beautiful Blends Coloured Lidded Gift Box
You know those times when you get involved in a particular crafting technique, and want to do it on absolutely everything? Yeah, that would be me with the Blends + Love You Always black and white paper right now.
I can’t stop colouring flowers in and making the paper into boxes and bags!
But hey, I love the result, and I love to share!
When I decided to make this one a lidded box, those flowers struck me as being poppies, hence the choice of poppy parade for the original one, but then, it crossed my mind that they could be tulips, and as we all know that I’m horticulturally challenged, they actually could be anything really.
But nevertheless, I love how both came out, the gorgeous Poppy Parade, and the vibrant Magenta Madness.
And don’t you love the chocolate-box style ribbon? I love closing boxes like this!
Have a super day, last day of March today, tomorrow we demonstrators (and all new joiners) get to shop our pre order of new catalogue stuff. Yay!

Lovely Sam, i like the pink one – think they maybe anemones? Beautiful anyway, i like the simplicity of the one colour and matching box with the black ribbon.
Love the box and love the chat ❤️Xx
Sam, Looks like you’re overcoming your on camera bow tying challenges. Great job! I thoroughly enjoy hearing about your cats (I’m severely allergic to cats, boo hoo) and your boys. These boxes are beautiful. Many thanks for sharing your creativity with us
