Family Game Night DIY Mini Storage Box
Family Game Night
The people in my family love to play games.
When we get the whole big group together for a Family Dinner,
someone usually brings out the dice.
Everyone crowds around the table, and we play a game or two.
Dice is one of their favorite games because even young kids can play along.
(that is until they get bored and leave)
For fun, I made a small box just the right size for holding
a deck of cards and a set of dice.
Inside the box, there is enough space to add a small pencil
and paper for keeping score.
To Make the Box:
- Two pieces of 6″ x 13″ Matboard* are needed to make the box.
- Cover both sides of the mat board using scrapbook paper from
- Echo Park Family 12″ x 12″ Scrapbook Collection*. I used an Xyron Creative Station* to put adhesive on the back of the paper before sticking it onto the mat board. The Xyron Creative Station* adds a complete layer of adhesive to the paper so that you get great adhesion.
- I die-cut two of all the pieces of the box using a Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine* and the Sizzix #665982 XL Skinny Mini Book Box Die.
- Gently fold the scored edges and tabs of the mat board.
- Adhere the box together using 3/8″ Scor-Tape*.
- If the white core of the mat board bothers you, go around the edges of the mat board with a brown marker to hide the white core.

I added the word “Memories to the spine of the box.
Isn’t making memories what it’s all about?
I used a strip of faux leather paper, and a simple snap to
hold the box closed when not in use.

DIY Christmas Tree Reusable Gift Bag
DIY CHRISTMAS TREE REUSABLE GIFT BAG
Are you getting ready for Christmas?
This past Thanksgiving weekend came and went so quickly.
But I am so Thankful that I got to spend it with all three
of my kids and their families.
Family Time is Priceless.
While she was here, I asked my sweet little Granddaughter to
model this bag that I made using StyleTechCraft’s Heat Transfer Vinyl*.
It’s made from an inexpensive cotton bag* and is perfect for
carrying gifts for all those Holiday Parties.
Or you can give it as part of the gift.

- To make the image for the bag, I used the Farm Fresh Christmas Trees SVG cut file from The Silhouette Design Store.
- I sized the image to fit on the bag and cut it out using a Silhouette Cameo Electronic Die Cutting Machine* and StyleTechCraft’s Heat Transfer Vinyl*.
- I cut the image out of both red and green HTV vinyl.
- I removed the vinyl that I wanted to be green from the red image.
- With the green image, I cut out only the pieces that I wanted to use with the red layer.
- Make sure to mirror the image and place the shiny side down on the cutting mat.
- Position the design on your bag. Use an iron or a heat press* to apply heat and pressure to the design, following the manufacturer’s instructions.
- Peel off the clear transfer tape.
