HALLOWEEN SNOWBALL GIFT BOX with NUTS ABOUT YOU - Stampin' Up!



Hi Friends!
Today I made a square box to fit a Halloween Snowball Treat.  The box measures  3 1/4 x  3 1/4  x  1 1/2".  I used Nuts About You stamp set, Frightful Tags dies, Detailed Pumpkins dies, Scalloped Contours dies and the Brights and Regals Desiginer Series Paper.



I started with a piece of Granny Apple Green Cardstock sized
11  x  6 1/4".
I scored the 11" side at:
1 1/2,  4 3/4,  6 1/4  and  9 1/2".
I scored the  6 1/4" side at:
1 1/2  and  4 3/4".
To cut and put the box together you can watch my Video Tutorial Here.
Below is a picture of my Template.  Your Cardstock should look like this after scoring and cutting.


I cut a Scalloped Rectangle from Pumpkin Pie Cardstock using the Scalloped Contours dies.
I cut the long side of the rectangle to 3".
I attached a piece of Brights Designer Series Paper (Granny Apple Green) sized  2 1/2  x  2 1/2" to the Scalloped Rectangle with Liquid Glue.
I attached 4 pieces of Regals Designer Series Paper (Pumpkin Pie) sized  3  x  1 1/4" to the sides of the box with Liquid Glue.
I used a small circle punch to cut a half moon in the front side of the box for a finger grip.


I stamped the Squirrel Images onto Basic White Cardstock.
I used Pumpkin Pie Ink for the inside of the squirrel and Early Espresso Ink for the outline.
I stamped the leaves using Granny Apple Green and Cajun Craze Inks.
I fussy cut the squirrel and leaves out by hand.
I stamped the inside of the leaves with Early Espresso Ink.
I cut a pumpkin from Gold Foil Paper using the Detailed Pumpkins dies.
I cut the witch hat from Black Glitter Paper using the Frightful Tags dies.


I attached the Gold Pumpkin to the upper right side of the Scalloped Rectangle with Liquid Glue.
I attached the leaves to the stem of the pumpkin with Liquid Glue.
I attached the squirrel to the lower left side of the Rectangle with Dimensionals.
I attached the witch hat to the squirrel with a Dimensional in the middle of the hat and Liquid Glue on the tip and brim of the hat.


I stamped the sentiment from Time of Giving stamp set onto Pumpkin Pie Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I cut the sentiment out by hand and attached it above the squirrel's tail with Liquid Glue.
I tied Fine Art Ribbon around the sides of the box and tied a ribbon on the right side.
I attached the Scalloped Rectangle with the images on top of the box and ribbon with Dimensionals.
For the final touch I added 3 Matte Decorative Dots to the witch hat.
