Welcome to our All Star Tutorial monthly blog hop for the Sweet Talk Suite! Be ready to be immersed in this adorable suite with all that we have to share.
I began creating with this suite the day I got the products, because I am in love with it! In fact many of you may have seen me sharing the suite about 47 minutes in on my November 17th YouTube Live (the new product peeks section of my video).
In that video I gave you a peek at two of the three boxes that I’m sharing with you in photos and details today.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Here are photos, measurements, and tips for the of the simpler ones accented with the Sweet Talk Designer Paper.
Measurements …
- Real Red Cardstock
- 2-1/4” x 3-1/4”
- Gold Foil Sheets
- 2-1/8″ x 3-1/8″
- Sweet Talk Designer Paper
- 2″ x 3″
- One larger die-cut conversation heart if making UR Cute version
- Vellum Cardstock
- Scrap for die-cutting mini envelope if making UR Cute version
- Basic White Cardstock
- Scrap for die-cutting a larger heart if making UR Cute version
- Real Red Faux Linen Ribbon
- 15″ or 9″ if making UR Cute version
Tips for the UR Cute version of the box…
- Die-cut some smaller red hearts from the 2-1/4″ x 3-1/4″ piece before assembling all the layers.
- Assemble box and then add the red, gold, and designer paper layers AND the ribbon.
- Die-cut the envelope, fold, open and add a couple small red hearts with Glue Dots, close again and use Bone Folder to make fold crisp, then add to the front of the box with Glue Dots placed behind the red hearts. Once the envelope is on, add the other red hearts and gems.
- Add the larger conversation heart onto a white one, write on the back side, and slip into the envelope.
Using that 2″ x 3″ measurement, you could decorate 24 boxes with one sheet of 12×12 designer paper! So stock up on the boxes if you plan to make your Valentines this way this year…SOOooo easy and so cute.
Here are photos, measurements, and tips for the of the Shimmer Vellum window box which takes a bit more skill since Blending Brushes are involved. But it’s still easier than it looks.
Measurements …
- In Color Shimmer Vellum (Polished Pink)
- 2-1/4” x 3-1/4”
Tips…
- Before any assembling, die-cut a couple hearts in the box. Keep the cut out hearts within.
- Use Blending Brushes to add the Old Olive, Night of Navy and Old Olive stripes of color. Remove the cut out hearts (stamp the smaller one with Polished Pink).
- Stamp navy outline and olive solid hearts on the box, add the shimmer vellum underneath so it shows through the heart windows, and assemble the box.
- Add the die-cut hearts: the larger with one Dimensional and the smaller with two layers of Dimensionals.
- Then add the Iridescent Rhinestone Jewels.

Hi again Rachael, I have cancelled the automatic monthly subscription payments with PayPal.
I only wanted Sweet Talk so I will go to that page to order just it.
Sincerely, Gail
Thanks Gail. Yes, I see that you cancelled the subscription. So I’ll just send you the Sweet Talk one since it looks like you didn’t cancel the initial $15 payment.
