Wishes and Wonder 2 Piece Square Box - Stampin' Up!

Hi Friends!
My project today is a 4 x 4 x 1 1/2" Square Box.  I used the New Wishes & Wonder stamp set, North Pole Wonder dies and Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper.  All of these products are from the Stampin' Up August - December Mini Catalogue.  They are available for purchase on August 4, 2020.



I started with a piece of Real Red for the top of the box sized  7 x 7".
I scored each side at 1 1/2" on all sides.
For the Bottom of the box I used a piece of Garden Green sized
6  15/16  x  6  15/16"
(just a little more than   6  7/8")
I also scored each side at 1  1/2" on all sides.
To cut and put the box together you can watch my video tutorial here.


I attached Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper to the top of the box that was sized:
(1)  3 3/4  x  3 3/4"
(4)  3 3/4  x  1 1/4

Using the North Pole Wonder die set I cut out the back circle in Garden Green Cardstock and the Reindeer in Gold Foil Paper.
I stamped the Circle Image from Wishes and Wonder stamp set on Whisper White Cardstock with Real Red Ink.
I put the white circle on the green one with Dimensionals.


After I filled the box with a tin of candy I wound 1" Shaded Spruce ribbon, from the Wonder of the Season Ribbon Combo Pack, around the box and tied a knot on the side.
I used liquid adhesive to attach the reindeer to the back of the circles.
I put Dimensionals on the back of the circles and reindeer above and below where the ribbon would be so it would not stick the ribbon to the box.


For the final touch I added some Gold accents (Faceted Gems would be nice too) to the bottom right of the box.

I am a new Stampin' Up! Independent Demonstrator and I would love your business!
