CLEVER CAT GIFT BOX TUTORIAL for JUSTIN'S PEANUT BUTTER CUPS with CUTE HALLOWEEN - Stampin' Up!



Hi Friends!
My project today is a rectangular gift box that fits a pack of Justin's Almond Butter Cups.  The box measures  4 1/2  x  2 1/2  x  3/4".  I used Clever Cats stamp set, Cute Halloween Designer Series Paper, the Rectangle Stitched dies and Glittered Organdy Ribbon.




I started with a piece of Granny Apple Green Cardstock sized
7 x 6 1/2".
I scored the 7" side at:
1/2,  3,  3 3/4  and  6 1/4".
I scored the 6 1/2" side at:
3/4,  5 1/4  and  6".
The below picture is what your Cardstock should look like after scoring, cutting, rounding the corners of the flap with the Detail Trio Punch and using a small circle punch to make a finger grab on the side without a flap.
To cut and put the box together you can watch my Video Tutorial Here.


I attached 1 piece of Cute Halloween Designer Series Paper to the box.
(1)  2 1/4  x  4 1/4" for the front of the box.
I attached the DSP to the box with Liquid Glue.


I stamped the images from Clever Cats stamp set onto Basic White Cardstock.
I used a Stamp and Pierce Mat underneath the Cardstock for a solid image.
I stamped the cat, hat and outline of the pumpkin images with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I stamped the inside of the pumpkin with Pumpkin Pie Ink.
I colored the buckle of the hat with a Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin' Blend.
I colored the edges of the pumpkin with a Light Pumpkin Pie Stampin' Blend.
I fussy cut the images out by hand.


I cut a green rectangle from Granny Apple Green Cardstock using the Rectangle Stitched dies.
I cut a piece of the Cute Halloween Designer Series Paper to
1 3/4  x  3".
I stamped the spider and web onto the upper right corner of the DSP with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I attached the Spider DSP on top of the Granny Apple Green Stitched Rectangle with Liquid Glue.
I attached both rectangles to the front of the box with Dimensionals.


I glued the cat onto the pumpkin and the hat on top of the cats head with Liquid Glue.
I attached them all to the Polka Dot DSP with Dimensionals.
I tied a bow with Glittered Organdy Ribbon and attached it above the rectangles with 2 Glue Dots.
For the final touch I added Wink of Stella Glitter to the hat and pumpkin face.
