CRAFT & CHAT – EPISODE 18
Hello, crafty friends! I’m so excited to share this fun and adorable 3D project with you today – a lift top milk carton featuring the cutest cow from the Cutest Cows stamp set! This carton was created for my dear friend, Julie DiMatteo, to celebrate her incredible achievement of hitting $1 million in career sales. It’s inspired by a project Julie created, and I just had to give it my own twist! This project is a perfect example of how stamping and creativity come together to make meaningful, personalized gifts.
While I adapted measurements, the main part of this project was inspired by a similar one Julie did (see her blog post here). I wanted to fit ten fun size 100 Grand Candy Bars inside, so I changed my measurements a bit. The cow was stamped using the Cutest Cows stamp set and then colored in with Stampin’ Blends, giving it a playful, cute look. To finish it off, I added the sentiment “Milk It for All It’s Worth” – a fitting and fun phrase to celebrate Julie’s amazing milestone!
Julie’s a fan of purple, so I chose Petunia Pop for the base and a striped piece of paper from the Unbounded Beauty DSP to match!
When creating 3D projects like this, don’t forget to add a fun sentiment to really tie it all together. The Cutest Cows stamp set is perfect for making light-hearted, celebratory gifts like this one. Pairing it with DSP and a coordinating ribbon will help your 3D project feel extra special!
