CRAYON and PAPER PAD GIFT BOX TUTORIAL with COUNT ON ME - Stampin' Up!

Shop Stampin' Up! Here

Hi Friends!

For my project today I made a Crayon and Paper Pad Box.  I think this is the perfect thing to bring along  to keep kids busy during the summer!  I used Count on Me stamp set, Brights 6x6 Designer Series Paper and the Layering Circle dies.

You can watch my Video Tutorial Here!

I started with a piece of Bermuda Bay Cardstock sized

8 1/2  x  8 1/4".

I scored the  8 1/2" side at:

3/4,  6  and  6 3/4".

I scored the  8 1/4" side at:

3/4,  3 7/8",  4 5/8  and  7 3/4".

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

There is a picture below of how the Cardstock should look after scoring, cutting and rounded the corners of the flap using the Detail Trio Punch.

I attached 3 pieces of the Brights 6x6 Designer Series Paper to the box in sizes:

(2)  2 7/8  x  5"

(1)  2 7/8  x  1 1/2"

I cut part of a circle 1" down from the top of the side without the flap using a 2 1/2" circle punch after attaching the DSP.

I used Tear and Tape to put the box together.

I attached 5/8" Adhesive Velcro Dot to the top of the inside of the box and the back of the flap for a closure.

I stamped the Kangaroo image from Count on Me stamp set onto Basic White Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.

I cut the image out using the Layering Circle dies.  I also cut a Scalloped Circle from Bermuda Bay Cardstock using the same dies.

I stamped the grass image around the Kangaroo with Old Olive Ink.

I colored the Kangaroo with Stampin' Blends:

Light Crumb Cake for the belly

Light Flirty Flamingo for the nose

Light and Dark Soft Suede for the rest of the body

Light Mossy Meadow for the leaf.

I attached the Basic White onto the Bermuda Bay Cardstock with Liquid Glue.

I attached the image piece onto the front of the box with Dimensionals.

I attached 3 small Polished Pink Flowers, from the Loose Flower Flourishes, around the grass with Liquid Glue.

For the final touch I added Polished Pink Open Weave Ribbon and Pool Party Sheer Ribbon together in a bow and attached it to the front flap with Glue Dots.

I started with a piece of Crumb Cake Cardstock sized  9 1/2  x  7".

I scored the  9 1/2" side at:

Below is a picture of how your Cardstock should look after scoring, cutting and using the Detail Trio punch and circle punch.

I cut a Scalloped Rectangle from Basic White Cardstock using the Scalloped Contours dies.  I cut about  1/8" off the top of the long side of the rectangle and attached it flush to the top of the box about  1/4"  from the left side, with Liquid Glue.

I cut a piece of Sweet Symmetry  Designer Series Paper to  3 3/8  x  1 7/8"  and attached it, flush to the top of the box, on top of the White Scalloped Rectangle with Liquid Glue.

I stamped 3 images from the Plentiful Plants stamp set onto Basic White Cardstock.

I stamped the 3 leaf image with Garden Green ink two times.

I stamped the pot image with Polished Pink ink once.

I cut them all out using the Perfect Plants dies.

I glued the 2 plant images overlapping behind the top of the Polished Pink Pot.  I attached the entire piece to the bottom left side of the DSP with some of the leaves hanging over the right side of the Scalloped Rectangle with Dimensionals.

I attached 2 of the Pale Papaya Loose Flower Flourishes to the leaves with Glue Dots.

I cut a label from Polished Pink Cardstock using the Messages die.  I stamped the sentiment from Plentiful  Plants stamp set onto the label, as close to the bottom as possible, with Tuxedo Black Ink.

I cut the top of the label off and glue it flush to the top of the DSP with Liquid Glue.

For the final touch I added 3 Polished Pink jewels, from the 2021-2023 In Color Jewels, to the right side of the box.

Shop Stampin' Up! Here

Hi Friends!

Today I made a quick and easy Elegant Favor Box.  You can make 2 of these boxes from one piece of 8 1/2 x 11" Cardstock.  I used Expressions in Ink Designer Series Paper, Artistic dies, Encircled in Friendship stamp set and Layering Circle dies.

You can watch my Video Tutorial Here!

I started with a piece of Polished Pink Cardstock sized

8 1/4  x  5 1/2".

I scored the  8 1/4"  side at:

1/2,  3 1/2,  4 3/4  and  7 3/4".

1 1/4  and  4 1/4".

I scored each side of the  8 1/4"  side of the Cardstock to the 1st scoreline ONLY at:

2 1/4  and  6".

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

I also included a photo below of how your Cardstock should look after  scoring and cutting.

I attached Expressions in Ink Designer Series Paper to the front and back flap of the box in sizes:

(2)  2 3/4  x  2 3/4".

I attached the DSP to the box with Liquid Glue.

I cut the branch of leaves from Gold Foil Sheet using the Artistic dies.  I used only the 4 lowest leaves and stems of the die cut.

I used Liquid Glue only the top stem and the bases of the top leaves to the front of the box.

I punched two holes at the top of the box, through the front and back flaps together, with a 1/8" hole punch.  I put 2 Peppermint Patties inside and ran some Pale Papaya Open Weave Ribbon through the holes and tied a bow at the front.

I used the smallest circle and scalloped circle dies from the Layering Circle dies to cut a tag out of Espressions in Ink Designer Series Paper.

I stamped the sentiment from Encircled in Friendship stamp set onto the circle with Tuxedo Black Ink.

I punched a hole in the top of the tag with a 1/8" circle punch and tied some Gold Trim, from the Simply Elegant Trim Pack, through the hole.
