EASY TRIANGLE BOX with NUTS ABOUT SQUIRRELS - Stampin' Up! *



Hi Friends!
My project today is a Triangle Box that I filled with about a dozen Hershey's Kisses.  The box measures  5  x  2  x  1 3/4".  I used Nuts about Squirrels stamp set, Seasonal Labels dies, Sweet Symmetry Designer Series Paper and Bumblebee Gingham Ribbon.



I started with a piece of Pear Pizzazz Cardstock sized  9 x 8".
I scored the 9" side at:
2  and  7".
I scored the 8" side at:
2,  4,  and 6".
To cut and put the box together you can watch my Video Tutorial Here.
Below is a picture of how your Cardstock should look after scoring and cutting.


I attached 3 pieces of Sweet Symmetry Designer Series Paper to the box.
(3)  4 3/4  x  1 3/4"
for the front flap, inside flap and the back.
I attached the DSP to the box with Liquid Glue.


I stamped the outline of the squirrel with the nut, from Nuts About Squirrels stamp set, onto Basic White Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I stamped the fur with Pumpkin Pie Ink.
I stamped the cap of the acorn with Early Espresso Ink.
I stamped the bottom of the acorn with Cinnamon Cider Ink.
I fussy cut the squirrel out by hand.


I cut a label from Pear Pizzazz Cardstock using the Seasonal Labels dies.
I stamped the sentiment, from Nuts About You stamps set, onto the left side of the label with Early Espresso Ink.
I attached the label 2" from the left side of the DSP, on the front of the box, with Liquid Glue.
I attached the Squirrel next to the sentiment with Dimensionals.


I put about 12 Hershey's Kisses into the box.
I closed the box by tying Bumblebee Gingham Ribbon around the right side of the box with a bow at the top.
For the final touch I added 3 green Matte Decorative Dots to the right side of the box.
