Hi Friends!
My project today is a box for a Russell Stover Chocolate bar. The box measures 6 1/4 x 2 3/4 x 3/8". I used Warm and Toasty Stamp set, Hippo and Friends dies, Little Treat Box dies Stitched Circle dies and Tis' the Season Designer Series Paper.
I started with a piece of Real Red Cardstock sized 8 1/2 x 6 5/8".
I scored the 8 1/2" side at:
1 1/2, 1 7/8 and 8 1/8".
I scored the 6 5/8" side at:
3/8, 3 1/8, 3 1/2 and 6 1/4".
To cut, put the box together and cut the circle in the flap you can watch my Video Tutorial here.

I attached Tis' the Season Designer Series paper to the box in sizes:
(2) 2 1/2 x 6"
and
I cut a scrap of the same DSP with a 2 1/2" Circle punch to about 2/3 of the circle.
I matched it up with the front flap and made a pencil mark on each side where I wanted to cut the excess off.
I attached all the DSP to the box with Stampin' Seal.
I attached Adhesive Slim Velcro Dots to the inside flap and top of the inside of the box.
I stamped the sentiment from Warm and Toasty stamp set with Real Red Ink onto a 1 3/8" circle I punched out of a piece of the same DSP pack.
I cut a Scallop Circle out of Real Red Cardstock using the Little Treat Box dies.
I attached the sentiment to the Scallop Circle with Liquid Glue.
I tied a bow with Mesh Metallic Ribbon. I punched a hole in the top of the Sentiment piece and tied some White Baker's Twine through the hole. I tied it onto the Metallic Bow.
I tied another bow with Real Red Braided Linen Trim and attached it the the Metallic bow OVER the Baker's Twine with a Glue Dot.
I put 2 Glue Dots on the back of the Metallic Bow and attached it all to the top flap of the box.
I cut 2 labels from the Hippo and Friends dies. 1 from Real Red Cardstock and a smaller one from the same DSP that I stamped the sentiment on.
I glued the DSP to the Cardstock with Liquid Glue.
I stamped the Reindeer image from Warm and Toasty stamp set onto Whisper White Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I colored the image with the following Stampin' Blends:
Light and Dark Soft Suede for the Reindeer,
Light Crumb Cake for the antlers,
Dark Smokey Slate for the Hooves and
Light and Dark Real Red for the bow.
I fussy cut the Reindeer out and attached it to the top label with Liquid Glue.
I attached the entire piece to the box with Dimensionals.
