Hi there and welcome to the June 2021 Stampers Dozen Blog Hop! This month we are sharing projects that focus on the many invaluable tools that Stampin' Up! offers. What is your must-have? I know that I can't live without the Simply Scored Scoring Tool! A very obvious use of this tool is to score card stock before cutting it in half to create two card bases, but check out this great gift box I created and the card set to go in it. This makes the perfect gift to give and with very few supplies!
Inside the gift box is a set of four blank note cards and sentiments that can be attached as needed. I even embellished/texturized the cards using the Simply Scored Scoring Tool. This is a great use of our gorgeous DSP and comes together so easily thanks to this awesome tool!!
If you want to order this fabulous Simply Scored Scoring Tool, please click on the image above to head over to my Stampin' Up! store. This tool is currently in a low inventory status so be sure to order soon before it goes in to a back order status. Others agree, this is a must-have tool! And check out the beautiful samples created using the Hand-Penned product suite! Did you know that you can purchase all of the items in this suite?? Be sure to click on the images above to take you right to my website.
The box is held closed with a beautiful belly band. Here is a close-up of how I created the pretty flower embellishment. Check out that super sparkly Genial Gem! It is so pretty in real life and they come in two colors - Petal Pink and Mint Macaron. They're part of this Hand-Penned product suite.
Here is what it looks like when you lift the flap - the four cards/envelopes and sentiments easily fit inside. I even notched it so that it would be easier to take out the cards.
Here are the four different cards I designed. Each showcases a different pattern from this beautiful DSP. Since some of the DSP patterns contained more Highland Heather, I cut two mats from that color card stock. For the other two I went with Mint Macaron because it is in all the DSP. I used the "mountain" side of the scored card stock on two of the cards and the "valley" side for the others just to mix things up a little. Which is your favorite?
Here is a photo of the inside of one of the cards. I just simply stamped the large floral image on the inside using Memento Tuxedo Black ink to match the envelope for each of the cards.
Here are several of the sentiments from the stamp set that I cut out using the Tailored Label punch - with a few stampin' dimensionals on the back, whomever I gift this box to will be able to create a personalized cards in seconds.
And here is one last photo of the gift box. I am happy with the way this turned out and it is based on one I made years ago (see that post here). I am in the process of writing up a tutorial that I will have for sale and also to gift to anyone placing a $50+ order with me during June and July.
I hope you've enjoyed my project using the Simply Scored Scoring Tool. For even more inspiration and ideas using some of the fabulous tools that Stampin' Up! offers, be sure to check out the other designer's blog posts using the links below.

Great project! Love the scoring on the card base. The Simply Scored Tool is one I use every time I stamp.
