These projects were so fun to design! Between the beautiful Designer Series Paper, the pop of Blueberry Bushel, and great sentiments – I’m in love!


Roll-Up Prism Basket Box

This Roll-Up Prism Basket Box was inspired by a roll-up toiletry bag I saw on the Hobo Bags website:

When I first created the prototype, I was unsure – it felt upside down! So, when I flipped it over I saw a basket and went with it! Here’s how the box opens:

Each of the three prism boxes open:

Here’s another look at the prism boxes:

I chose not to add a finger notch to them, but you absolutely could!

The box rolls up and closes with a Velcro dot (or other closure of your choice!):

And I added a sentiment just underneath the handle:

This project is much easier than it looks and I hope you’ll give it a try! The recipient will really be wowed!

Here’s the template for the prism boxes for reference (not to scale):

Swivel Tower Fun Fold Card

This fun fold card is inspired by Terri Gaines! I absolutely LOVE how the sentiment swivels and the card stands for display!

By adding a few score lines and creating a “box”, this fun fold mechanism is so fun to play with! Here’s a top view:

Here’s how the card looks fully open and pressed flat:

And here’s how the card looks closed:

This will fit perfectly into an envelope for mailing! I love how that Blueberry Bushel really pops! I hope you’ll give this fun fold card a try!
