Hi there blog friends! Yep, box mode again! I can’t explain why but I’m rolling with it and it’s a good change of pace for me. This is another of the October JustRite Stampers releases and this one is called O Christmas Tree. I love the font and love the shape!! I stamped the shape multiple times, scored and came up with a simple box that will work for place settings and favors and can be opened by a flap on the bottom.
Some of the smaller Spellbinders elements were used on the favors. The two smaller elements from Spellbinders™ Layered Poinsettias were used on the red tree while Spellbinders™ 2011 Snowflake Pendants were used on the gold and white tree,
I stamped the three stamp four times in a fan arrangement and scored between each stamping. Before cutting I allowed for a 3/8″ flap on one side and 1″ on all the bottoms. I then matched the right sized Spellbinders™ Classic Squares LG and cut it on a fold to fashion a flap that I adhered to one of the 1″ flaps. That let my box close on the bottom. Then I cut a strip of paper 4 1/2″ long and scored it at 1″ intervals, turned and scored 1/2″ in. This made the trunk of the tree – once assembled, I attached it to the bottom lid with glue dots.
| SUPPLIES I USED |
| Stamps: JustRite Stampers – O Christmas Tree Paper: Bazzill, Kraft, Strathmore Bristol Ink: Versamark and Embossing Powder, Colorbox Chalk Ink – Warm Red, Vintage Photo Distress Ink Accessories: Spellbinders™ Layered Poinsettias, Spellbinders™ 2011 Snowflake Pendants, Spellbinders™ Classic Squares LG, pearl brad, embossing powder, seam binding |

Happy Monday friends! I hope you are waking up to a beautiful new week.
You are just so creative and such an inspiration! I recently came across you’re blog and have tried out a few of your ideas. They are so much fun. Thank you for getting my creative juices flowing again and for sharing your talent. One day I’m going to tackle the awesome pop up bird cage card. That’s my absolute favorite.
I copied your instructions and am going to try this because it is so darn cute! What a treat to hang on the tree! Blessings, Becca, I hope your road has smoothed a bit. Your creative genius just keeps flowing, that’s for sure!!
Your little tree boxes are so adorable! Love the different colours you have created them in. So festive!
Thanks for sharing! :)
Brilliant idea! I love this Becca…you never cease to amaze me with your creativity. ;)
Oh these are gorgeous Becca!!!
Love Sheila xx
Wonderful ornament to hang on your tree!!!
I love the colors also but can see that it would look good in many colors.
I always make the younger kids a ornament for when the get old enough to have a tree of their own. Or some already do!!
This just may be the one I do.
Thanks Becca for sharing a great idea.
I would love to see a video tutorial!
These boxes are gorgeous as is all your work, Becca. You truly are an artistic genious. I would love to make these, but like Dianne would need a video tutorial. Thanks for everything you so lovingly share with us.

Oh, I bow down to you!!!!!!!! LOL!!
So clever – great for centerpiece if you put a bunch of them together on a hall table! Thanks for the inspiration, my sweet friend!! xo
These are absolutely gorgeous!
WOW … WHAT GORGEOUS TREES.. YOU ARE SO CREATIVE GIRL!
Wow, these boxes are just gorgeous!! I think the tree boxes would be wonderful on a Christmas dinner table – so elegant! I’ll have to put this on my list of things to make :)
What a great idea! Beautiful! Will you be sharing your box pattern with us? Please, pretty please!
Becca, these are beautiful! You make it sound so easy! I’m going to try it, they make cute table toppers!
Another great idea! It’s on my “I wanna do that” list, too, now.
Awesome Becca… I LOVE box mode!!
These trees are SO adorable! Thanks for sharing!
Just love the little trees. A template for the box and a tutorial would be great. Each time I get an email from you, I can’t wait to see what you have made. Elegant is the word I use to describe your cards etc.
Nifty! These are precious. Thx for sharing your genius with a dull normal like me.
wow, these are so wonderful, but i am more of a visual learner. i think i need to see how you did these on a video, please?
Beautiful, just might have to get those stamps. The Cricut “Bags Tags and Boxes” cartridge cuts a really nice Christmas Tree box in any size you like, but when I used them for gifts last Christmas they didn’t look anything like yours! Thanks for your beautiful ideas every day.
Hi Becca,
I have been following your blog for a very short time,but WOW.I have a sight problem,so I print your beautiful works of art out,not to copy,but to give me inspiration.
Thank you so much.

Becca, these are so beautiful! What size are the trees. I went to the stamping website but it didn’t have that info.
Awesome as always!
Where do you come up with all this knowledge. I only wish I had just a little bit so I could just once do something original. Beautifully done and thanks so much for sharing ! ! !
BEAUTIFUL Becca!!!!!!!!!!!! I saw these on the JustRite site but, just didn’t pay attention to WHO made them!!!!!! I SHOULD HAVE KNOW it was YOU!!!!!!! :) These WOULD be PERFECT for a place setting! MAYBE, add a little candy inside???? :)
Would love to see a video on this tree…beautiful!
Becca! What a stunning use of those stamps. You continue to amaze me. Thank you sooo much for sharing your creativity with us.
I just love this stamp set as well as how you used it. I agree with all the comments you are so creative and just wish I had one/tenth of it! Tks for sharing! (yes, I too would love to get the pattern!)
I would love a visual for how you stamped this and for the template (generalized) that you used for cutting and folding. This is a great project to re-create. Wonderful work, truly!
I would love to see a tutorail on how to make your tree books. These would be lovly on my Christmas table with small favors at each place setting. I love to check out your blog daily you are an inspiration your work and style are breath taking. TFS Ann
These are fantastic! I’m really hoping you will “show” how you made these since I am a very visual learner XX crossing fingers :)
What a neat idea for table decorations. I couldn’t find a description for the clearcut stamps — are they ready to use? Do they need to be cut out? How large are the various triangular stamps? How large is your finished triangular box?
Correction — JustRite “Clear” stamps (not Clear cut)
These are so clever & so lovely!
Hi Becca,
Beautiful christmastree’s!

Hi Becca,
These boxes are “Amazing” I am off to try it out.
I am a very “Visual” crafter so maybe a “Tutorial” would be good.

This is a breathtaking design. Thanks for sharing it.

Prrrrreeety clever!!! Would like to have a tutorial. REALLY would!!! If you are so inclined, it would be appreciated and put to good use. Thanx for the inspiration.
Becca, you are amazing! What a wonderful Christmas tree box!! I stand in awe of your creativity!!!
This would have to be stored with the other Christmas decorations —who could bear to part with it.
These little boxed trees are gorgeous. You need some fake snow and a few other decorations and you have a cute little village. You have decorated them so nicely. As always Becca, TFS!!! ;-D
Wow! Beautiful trees – and a clever idea!
Love the boxes, your work is so inspiring.
Isn’t your birthday Thursday? Want to wish you a blessed birthday.
This is one project I certainly would like to do. Please, please do a visual tutorial for this one!
Ooooooh Becca, this is absolutely gorgeous!! I can see these at each of my Christmas Eve family dinner, to hand out at my mother’s assisted living residence, for my fellow choir members, to friends who I make small gifts for, ……etc. I hope you will do a video tutorial for us as you always make the videos so easy to understand. Thank you for sharing you creativity with us all again.
Genius idea! These are great!
These boxes are just beautiful!
That’s a GREAT idea for the shape of the little image!! Looks like a tree, indeed!

Becca, while it may be a box, you are def. thinking Outside the box! Glad that you’re having fun with it! Really like your Christmas tree boxes, not sure if my fav is the red/white with poinsettia or the one with snowflakes, then again the last one has that gorgeous Becca bow!! lol
Hugs,

Our traditionnel Chrismas tree have a great look like this… I would like to see a little village with the Becca touch a kind of collection that we can built and add pieces through the years. I like so much all your paper decorations they are all attraction pieces . Thanks for all the beauty you bring in our life. Francine
Hi Becca! You make the best “stuff!” I love everyone of the trees and they look like they could fold flat to mail too?
Becca, I just love your tree box. Would you be so kind as to share the template you made please? I have a similar template, but the base is loose and fits into the bottom of the tree.
Becca, these are gorgeous, as always. Will you ever run out of ideas? Thanks for sharing. Linda
I’ve always thought how well you think “outside” of the box… and now you’re proving how “amazing” you are “inside” the box. As always you are such an ispiration. I hope you know how much we all appreciate you and your generosity in sharing your creativity.
I love these boxes; will you do a tutorial?
What fabulous tree boxes! Just love them!
Hugs
