Are you loving the Papertrey Ink Peeks this month?
Just when I think it can’t get better, somehow, someway, it always does.
Well now you have had some peeks at the TRIO of My Timeless Templates © that are being released on the 15th! I really can’t wait 😀
We have :
File it with Flair © Captured Card Case © and Bun in the Oven ©
Now I hope you are up for MORE ideas using each one. So let me share some more ideas, and show some MORE versatility.
File it with Flair is INSANELY versatile. INSANE! I totally love this template 😀
File it with Flair Goes GIFT BOX?!
Say what!
This is seriously the best gift BOX I have ever seen! LOL!
These colors are inspired by a bathing suit on a TV show Alexa watches called iCarly.
Dark Chocolate, Raspberry Fizz, Ripe Avocado, Summer Sunset & white.
For today’s peek I printed 2 File it with Flair templates .
2 boxes separately
I used FriendsTil the End set
This is a detail photo
I used Shimmerz to paint it, and added a Making Memories page pebble for dimension.
So one file template is in chocolate, the other in summer sunset. Cut, scored, and assembled as directed-except when I made the summer sunset one, I cut down the top by 1/4 inch. So, instead of making it FILES boxes, I slide the summer sunset one into the dark chocolate one-and VIOLA! TOTALLY rockin gift box.
Look how the curves make it SO cool looking. This is such a great box for a teen.
NOTE: Just make sure you slide it in the correct way-as shown here
If you slide it in with the (summer sun box) tall end at the top, you get a large gap, amking you think it doesn’t go together. So basically a tall end at top, and tall end at bottom. Just ensure you are putting it together correctly BEFORE stamping ! LOL!
I could go on and on about this box! But I won’t. Instead Ill move on to the next template.
How about another version of the Bun in the Oven template?
Now the previous samples are all cutesy and whimsical. Well, what if YOU aren’t that cutesy type? Can this template STILL be one you would use?
Well I would have to say YES! Of course it can.
Sending you a happy hello…
Well how about an more “elegant sample? I ADORE this box!
Same “oven” template. Can you believe it? I don’t see an OVEN at all, do you?
All I did was round the tab top corners, and instead of using the “oven door” template, I simply made a slider cover (directions for that come with template) instead.
I also punched a window, where I used my Poppin Acetate technique to give the bird some color, and shimmer.
This used the PTI anniversary set-Everyday Classics. I love the paper, but for the LIFE of me cannot remember WHO makes it. Its like 2 years old. It match Aqua Mist perfectly!!
Now you may notice another “difference” with this sample-look at the pretty scalloped base. Doesn’t it make this look like a special display case or a fancy “jewelry” box type of presentation with that added base on it?
I used the largest Label #1 nestability to make my base. I think it gave the template a nice twist. I snipped the edges and adhered with Scor-tape for a sturdy base for the box to be layered onto.
I just love it.
OK now moving onto the third template- Captured Card Case
Have a goodie
As I said before, and I’ll say it again-this isn’t JUST a card case! How about a candy box? These are chocolate cookies, covered in chocolate, and more crushed cookies. TDF!!! I got them at Target 😀 I LOVE Target!
Yes! I did eat a “couple” :C Only the broken the ones!! I gave this box to my dad who came to visit this past weekend.
He LOVED it.
I have to say I LOVE the dual colors for this box template:D Makes a nice presentation, and while simple has a big impact. A great template for mass producing a NICE gift. EASY PEASY!
So I “repackaged” the pre-bought cookies (cause you all know how much I LOVE to cook/bake-NOT!) and now they look so much more special than throwing a box of store bought cookies to a friend-KWIM? I’d much rather spend my time putting thought INTO the gift packaging than MAKING it. If you do both, there goes the whole day! I like to call it TIME MANAGEMENT skills.
I used Wise Owl, Handwritten Note, and Beyond Basic Borders.
I cut my window in my lid PRIOR to assembling!
How cute is that owl?
I outlined my Bridal Confetti flowers with a marker. I like the look.
Well that is all for me.
Check in on Nicholes Blog, as well as Lisa, and Melissa
Tomorrow I have even MORE to share. I have been in creative mode for a week, now you get to SEE what keeps me SOOOOOOO crazy busy the last 2 weeks (on top of family stuff! LOL!)
Well thank you again for checking in here. All the emails and comments make every second of hard work (heck the time it take to POST alone) all worth it.
I’d love to hear which project is your fave and why!!
Till tomorrow

Lauren, you are a marvel! Bun in the Oven! Too cute! But I think my fave will be the File it with Flair. How great is that. You amaze me. Keep that creative mojo going. We love it.
Lauren, these are such great ideas, but I would have to say the box idea with File It with Flair is one terrific idea.
You are totally amazing!!! I can’t wait till the 15th. The Captured Card Case is my favorite. It looks like it can have a million uses. Keep those creative juices flowing — I’m looking forward to seeing what you come up with next.
Oh my gosh Lauren, you are completely amazing!! I’m not sure I can pick a favorite! You NEVER cease to amaze me with your creativity!
It is just so neat that you show variations on your templates. I LOVE them, I like all three of these but I have to say the candy box stikes me the most. I think it is so fun to package something in a handmade box. And I love the way this has a window in it so you can seen the goodies inside. The colors in the oven box are gorgeous.
My TT file is going to get bigger this month…LOVE them all. You are so very creative…thanks for making me feel like I am too:)
Okay – I don’t comment much but I have to say how much you inspire me and that I love reading your blog everyday. My wishlist for PTI keeps growing and you are part of the reason! ; ) I love the File It template – I’ll be getting that one in a few days.
I love the file it with flair curved gift box–totally original and cool! I like that you show very different projects from the same template–amazing!
You have done IT AGAIN!! I love your excitement about these and it transcends directly to people like me. The templates are great…like others, I can’t pick a fave, so I’ll just have to get them all.
These projects are so absolutely “over-the-top”! You have outdone yourself with each one. I hope they are “Easy Peasy” as I would love to create such fun gifts in mass. I always find a challenge in doing that…but with you templates, that gets me off to a running start. The details of each are stunning, awesome, clever…WOW!
Oh my!! The File It template is awesome! You are genius and so talented! I love your sample – very trendy.
Lauren, you are nothing short of amazing!!! And that is the TRUTH!!! I love all your projects….just fantastic. That mind of yours is on overdrive!!! 😀
Lauren…how do you do it? Your creativity is endless! I love them all as they are so versatile! Thanks so much for inspiring me to create….it is sincerely appreciated!
The owl candy box is out of this world cute! I love it! ♥ I love all your templates!
Have a great day! We’ll chat soon!
Love, Renee
Just amazing… Thanks for sharing all your talent. I can’t choose just one, each one has special qualities that I love.
The base for the Bun in the Oven is fantastic.
Oh they are all so cooool but that sweet owl with those yummy treats inside really caught my eye…great job, Lauren!! Plus a hoot hoot for Target!
Wow, Wow, WOW!!! You just never cease to amaze me! The file folder BOX?!? Brilliant! And the colors are perfect! And… great ideas on using the oven template in versatile ways! (I had that paper too at on point. I want to say Crate Paper made it???) AND… the owl box is just adorable! Great work, girl! 🙂
My favorite is the File it with Flair Goft Box. No more last minute panic (oops no gift bag!)
How cool is that!

I love what you did with the file boxes! I have to say, I kind of see a washing machine instead of an oven! LOL!
Seriously, you are just one talented girl Lauren. Thanks for sharing all of your ideas with us.
Can it get any cuter? Lovin’ the owl. Your totally rockin’.
You are the greatest, I love all your templates and have purchased everyone. You are so talented and I look forward to all your post. Please keep them coming. Thanks for sharing with us

So cute! Cant wait to see them all!
Lauren you are making it sooooo difficult for me to choose 2 of your templates to do with my stamp group next month. These are all so great, love the owl box. If I had the time I would make all of them!!!!!!!!!!
Donna :]
Oh my Gosh…I am stunned! These are amazing projects, Lauren. Cant wait to try the templates.
Hugs~

Lauren – you are so creative!!! I look forward to checkin in everyday to see what you have for us!!! Of your examples today I’m torn – they are all great … but I think my fav is the one with the owl. I love the colours (I’m really in to brown lately) and of course the treats looked extra yummy too!
Keep up the awesome work – Can’t wait to see what you have in store for us the rest of the week!
Jen
Awesome Lauren!! So many ideas…can’t wait to get these templates!!!
Awesome stuff Lauren!! LOVE your projects.
Man, SUCH cute stuff Lauren!! I can’t wait to get my hands on the file box and file folder thingy’s. I LOVE organization that I can make CUTE!
That paper you can’t remember is definitely Crate Paper. I’ve had it for just as long and pulled it out a few months ago, lol. It’s their “Birdie” collection:

Have a great day! I can’t wait to see what you show us next!

Lauren, I agree with the other readers: You sure are amazing!!!!
How creative. I was looking for something I could make for a 60th wedding anniversary favor gift and here you gave me the idea. Thank you Lauren.
Lauren, You have blown me away again. I can’t wait till I can order these templates. I use the Perfect matchbox2 template for organizing my un mounted stamps.
Lauren.. EVERYTHING is fantastic!! How can you ask a girl to pick ONE favorite.. this girl cant! LOL!! I do already have a vision for my NEW captured card case!! 🙂 Ok it will be mine on the 15th.. that and others! HA HA!
Have a GREAT day! thanks for sharing your talent with us!
Those ideas are just great!
I love them all, you are really inspired. I can wait to get them on the 15th.
I love them all! I think I own all of your templates. You really inspire me to think outside the box. 😉 Thank you so much for sharing everything with us. I hope to have some projects to share with you soon. 🙂
Once again, great! I only follow you and Jennifer McGuire right now and this is why!
Really Lauren? I mean really? I have to choose? That’s just not fair! I’m an all or nothin’ girl 🙂 They are all awesome- and I am torn between bun in the oven because it’s compact and versatile for different favours for different occassions. Then the file it system is amazing too- because of the curves it adds more details and dimmensions instead of flat lines. I am lovin’ the curves! And even in it’s ‘normal’ form it was so amazingly versatile- and now you’re showing us different ways to assemble it as well? Well my gosh girl- you ARE a creative l’il genius! Good luck with these and they are ALL awesome 🙂
These are great Lauren!! Love each and every one!! Those cookies look yummy too 😉 Glad Dad came for a visit.
Keep these awesome samples coming!!! WOW 🙂
YOU ARE BLOWIN’ ME AWAY WITH YOUR SAMPLES! Speechless….
The file box box is my favorite. I love the contemporary feel to it and I love that you can make the file boxes and make them into a box. It also is like giving two gifts in one because the gift recipient can pull apart the gift box and use it as a file box. Right?! Too much fun.
I’m looking forward to playing with the Captured Card Case. Like you said, it’s more than a box for cards. What a great job!
Absolutely wonderful. I love the cardbox. The file box looks like loads of fun to make. I can see all kinds of possibilities for it. So fun, thanks for sharing.
Well, I love the owl set, so that box is just adorable! But, the file template looks like it could be a lot of fun to find new uses for!
I love the file folder BOX! I love the curve and everything. How cool! I’m not a teenager and I would love to receive this.
Lauren, you are so amazing! Just love all these new templates and your wonderful creations! Thanks for all your hard work…………….
absolutely love all of it – even down to the outlined bridal flowers – what a nice touch
Lauren you are a creative genius! BTW I’ve tried to resist buying the Wise Owl stamp set and now you show me the cutest owl yet.
Lauren-
YOU GO GIRL!!! Just look at all the fun stuff you have created! 🙂 I am actually geared up for the 15th….I really want these templates…I am thinking I am gonna do one order with quite a few templates…I visited the site and love so much on there! 🙂
Good Job-
Hugs-
Kathy
wow what great ideas for all three templates. If I have to pick a favorite I would say it was the gift box made from the file template. Looks great.
Bun in the oven – so didn’t so it for me ….until TODAY !!!! love that box, v classy !!!
You’re simply the best, Better than all the rest (yep song lyrics but Oh how appropriate when I think of you) So far this is all that I have gotten excited about this month and I am a die hard PTI groupie
Have you noticed the buzz word here is WOW?? I totally agree!! We are so lucky that you share your amazing talent with us 🙂 I can’t wait to see what’s in store for tomorrow. I love the Captured Card Case, the colors are fantastic.
I just love what you did with the cookies in the owl box!!!
I am so happy to see other stampers and crafters who don’t bake or cook. I’d rather put all my attention into the cards and packaging too. Leave the baking to the professionals!! You are very inspiring! Keep it up!
Lauren I absolutely Love the Bird box! It is so elegant and such gorgeous colors. I especially love the curved lines on the bottom. From the nestability Label….so clever! It really sets it off and shows such a different dimension to the design.
I also love the top box from 2 of the file it with flair boxes! You are the greatest!!! Thanks for all the inspiration and all that you do….seriously I would love to bottle you!!!
I don’t know how you do it Lauren!!! Your creative mind must be working 24-7!!! If I had to pick one of the templates it would be file it with flair……I can see so many uses for it!
Lauren, I love the captured card case with the goodies as well as the file box. You have such wonderful ideas, each template seems so versatile. I’m looking formard to trying them.
If I have to pick a favorite I would say it was the gift box made from the file template. Looks great.
Bun in the oven – so didn’t so it for me ….until TODAY !!!! love that box, v classy !!!
I remember you as you were in the last autumn.
you were the grey beret and the still heart.
In your eyes the flames of the twilight fought on.
And the leaves fell in the water of your soul.
Clasping my arms like a climbing plant.
The leaves garnered your voice,that was slow and at peace.
Bonfire of awe in which my thirst was burning.
Sweet blue hyacinth twisted over my soul.
I feel your eyes travelling,and the autumn is far off;
grey beret,voice of a bird,heart like a house
towards which my deep longings migrated
and my kisses fell,happy as embers.
Sky from a ship.Field from the hills.
Your memory is made of light,of smoke,of a still pond!
Beyond your eyes,farther on,the evenings were blazing.
Dry autumn leaves revolved in your soul.
