What a fun blog hop this is today! It’s all about the fabulous Stamparatus, Stampin’ Up!’s new positioning tool that will be available in the upcoming 2018-19 Annual Catalog which debuts on June 1st. See what I have to share, then check out all the other demonstrators’ blogs in the hop for additional creative ideas, tips and techniques while we show you the fun features of this fantastic tool. To follow the hop, simply scroll down and click the “next” button or click on the names of other participants in the hop.
One of my favorite features of the Stamparatus is the ability to quicken the task of producing several die-cut images. For an event this summer I need several of these little mason jar treat holders.
So I used the Stamparatus to produce about 30 of them in very little time.
Watch this quick video to see how creating a template to stamp “blanks” saves time and cardstock. The mason jars are stamped on both sides, too! I’ll show you the trick.
Here is a bit more information if you wish recreate these treat containers.
Measurements for the mason jar treat container:
- Whisper White cardstock:
- 2 scraps for the die-cut/stamped jars
- Glossy White cardstock:
- 3-1/2” x 3” scored 1″ in on all four sides
- Lemon Lime Twist cardstock:
- 5/8″ x 1-3/4″
- 1/8″ Sheer ribbon:
- about 14″
- Lemon Lime Twist Ombre ribbon:
- 1-3/4″
Products: See below for a full list of supplies linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Tips/Directions for the base of the treat container:
- Hold your 3″ x 3-1/2″ cardstock vertically (glossy side down). Cut on the upper two and lower two vertical score lines to where the horizontal score lines intersect.
- Angle cut a bit of each of the outer four tabs as shown. And fold along all the score lines toward the glossy side.
- Next add Sticky Strip adhesive on these four outer tabs so each piece is close to the outer edge of it’s tab. (Placing it further in may not make the base as strong.)
- Connect the outer tabs to the middle tabs to form the base. The glossy side will be on the inside. The coated surface of the paper will add some protection if the chocolates inside melt a bit.
Then just attach a double-sided jar on the front and a double-sided jar on the back, tie the ribbon on, and add your tag. Here are about 30 that I cranked out in no time. Oh!…The way I tied on my ribbon was a little time consuming. You may want to go with knots instead of bows. 😉
I’ll be using the Stamparatus for my multiple invites, too. These die-cut flowers can be mass produced in the same way! (Be sure to follow the hop for tips on using stamps with multi-step stamp images.)
Measurements for the card:
- Lemon Lime Twist cardstock:
- 11″ x 4-1/4″ scored at 5-1/2″ and folded in half
- Old Olive cardstock:
- 3-5/8″ x 4-7/8″
- Whisper White cardstock:
- two pieces that are 3-1/2” x 4-3/4” (one for the inside)
- scraps for the die-cut and stamped flowers
- Lemon Lime Twist Ombre ribbon:
- 7-8″
The Stamparatus will be available for purchase on June 1. But all the other products shown to create my treat containers and card are available now.

That’s my favorite way to use the Stamparatus – mass produce die cut stamping! Great job my friend!
My favorite, too! Thanks Dawn.
Hi Rachel,
Love these cute treat boxes! Is there a specific reason you used Glossy White card stock rather than just the Whisper White?
Also, just to let you know, I did order the Classic Label punch for my Dragonfly Closure cards. I’m sure it will be a help to many of my crafting projects. Thanks so much for responding back to me on my question.
I guess I should read all your directions before asking the question I did. lol…. Thanks a lot!
Yay! Glad you got the punch so you can make those dragonfly cards. And I’m glad you found the answer for the glossy cardstock question.
Thanks for the great idea & video, Rachel. It really showed how you can mass produce with no time or supply wasting.
Di 🙂
Glad you enjoyed it Di! Thanks. 🙂
