Chocolate Truffle Window Box with Toile Tidings

Hello!

My project today is a Window Box I made to hold Lindt Chocolate Truffles. I used the Toile Tidings Designer Series Paper, Wishes and Wonder stamp set, North Pole Wonder dies and the Essential Tag Punch. This project is a great for gift for Teachers, Coworkers and lots of other uses! I got a large bag of Truffles from my warehouse store for $11 and I got about 6 gift boxes filled with them.

You can see my Video Tutorial Here.

I started with a piece of Garden Green (or Real Red) Cardstock sized 10 x 7 1/2".

I scored the 10" side at:

1/2, 2 1/4, 5 1/4 and 7".

I scored the 7 1/2" side at:

1 3/4".

To cut and put the box together you can watch my Video Tutorial Here.

Before I put the box together I cut a circle in the front of the box using the North Pole Wonder dies.

I cut a ring of Garden Green (or Real Red) Cardstock to make a border around the outside of the window using 2 of the dies from the same set. The spiked circle and the same circle I cut the hole in the front of the box. I attached it to the from go the opening with Liquid Glue.

I attached a 2 1/4 x 2 1/4" piece of Window Sheet to the inside part of the window with Glue Dots.

I closed the side and bottom of the box with Tear and Tape.

I covered a binder clip with a 1 1/2 x 1" piece of Cardstock and a 1 1/2 x 3/4" piece of DSP using Liquid Glue.

I cut the TOP ONLY of a 1 1/2" wide strip of Garden Green Cardstock and Gold Foil Paper with the Essential Tag Punch. I cut them both down to 2 1/4" in length.

I embossed the Green Tag with one of the Wrapped in Texture Embossing Folder.

I attached the gold foil paper behind the Garden Green tag with Liquid Glue as shown in the picture.

I stamped the Mistletoe Image (I think it's Mistletoe!) from Wishes and Wonder stamp set onto Very Vanilla Cardstock with Garden Green (or Real Red) Ink. I cut the image out with the corresponding die from the North Pole Wonder dies.

I attached the piece to the tags with Dimensionals.

I punched a hole in the middle of the front tag and tied it to the top of the binder clip with gold cord from the Wonder of the Season Ribbon Combo Pack.
