It's just a few hours before the DeNami Design Theme Challenge ends! EEK! I just HAVE to enter! This theme is ANYTHING GOES! How exciting! I decided to take a picture of my Christmas project that I did this year. I wanted to get gifts for my good friends, but I was on a really tight budget, so I decided to make something fun for them. I made a little DeNami goodie box and filled it with yummy treats (from Trader Joe's! LOVE that store!!). I got the fabulous kraft mini take-out boxes from The Container Store, which is one of my all-time FAVORITE stores! Would you believe that these fabulous little boxes only cost $0.49 each?!? I know, right? I couldn't believe it either! It's true, though. Check it out for yourself HERE. So, here's what they looked like when "DeNamified":
I stamped the DeNami stamps, added some fabulous DeNami grosgrain ribbon, and then I added the ornament for one last Christmas-y touch. They were just plain plastic balls (from Target!), but I glued some Candies to them to make them more sparkly. Oh, and how could I forget to tell you that I added some glitter pen action to the stamps to make them POP!
Here's another view:
Lastly, here's a close-up of the stamp, so you can see the glittery pen:
Well, that's all I have time for right now. SO MUCH has happened in my life. I will try to post more soon, and I'll fill you in about all the exciting news!
Thanks for stopping by!

DARLING!!!! Seriously, less than a buck for the box??? Ohh what a great deal lol! This is too adorable my little Zinger...just love this idea! Was it hard to stamp on...I just love that you used a glitter pen to highlight the stamps...genius! It added just the right amount / touch!
I LOVE how you decorated this giftie box, Amy!!! SOOOO ADORABLE!!! We just found out that we're getting our first Trader Joe's in CO and I CAN'T WAIT!!! I've shopped there in CA and IN before and it's an AWESOME store! Thanks for tip about the take-out boxes too---GREAT price!!! You know you could fill a couple of those with some of the paper fortune cookies from my tutorial! *wink* Thanks for playing along in the DeNami Design Challenge!
You've turned a mere 49 cents into a true treausure Amy! Very cute little box ;)
Amy, this is the sweetest packaging ever!! And how fun that you were able to dress it up with some fabulous DeNami stamps. I love it!
My goodness Amy! WOW! This altered box is AMAZING! Love the shimmer you added too! Thanks for playing along with DeNami Design!
This is such a beautiful gift idea!
I love how glittery it is, and the ribbon and blinged up ornament are so pretty! What a wonderful presentation for baked goods or other gift - the box is a gift itself!
I've been missing your posts girl! Hope all is well and you are just busy with life!
