Hi Friends!
My project today is a Gift Box for a package of Russell Stover Melt Away Hot Chocolate Santas. The box meausures 6 1/2 x 3 x 1". I made a Snowflake Cooke Hanger to add to the top of the box. I used the Gingerbread dies, Gingerbread and Peppermint Designer Series Paper, Little Delights stamp set, Stockings dies and Matte Decorative Dots.
I started with a piece of Real Red Cardstock sized 8 1/2 x 8 1/2".
I scored the 1st 8 1/2" side at:
1, 4, 5 and 8".
I turned the Cardstock 1/4" and scored at:
1 and 7 1/2".
To cut and put the box together you can watch my Video Tutorial Here.
Below is a picture of what your Cardstock should look like after scoring, cutting and rounding the corners of the top flap with the Detail Trio Punch.
I attached 2 pieces of Gingerbread and Peppermint Designer Series Paper to the box.
(1) 6 x 2 3/4" to the front of the box.
(1) 2 3/4 x 3/4" for the front of the top flap.
Round the corners of one long side of this piece to match the flap.
I attached the DSP to the box with Liquid Glue.
I cut a small label from Old Olive Cardstock using the Stockings dies.
I stamped the sentiment, from Little Delights stamp set, onto the label with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I attached the label to the lower left of the box with Liquid Glue.
I cut 4 Snowflake Gingerbread background pieces from Cinnamon Cider Cardstock using the Gingerbread dies.
I cut 2 of the matching "icing" pieces from Basic White Cardstock using the same dies.
I used my Silicone Mat to sponge Liquid Glue on the the back of the "icing pieces" and placed them onto 2 of the Cinnamon Cider die cuts.
I put Liquid Glue to the back of the other 2 Cinnamon Cider dies cuts and added the end of a 4 1/2" piece of Linen Thread to the middle.
I added the "icing" piece onto of the Glue to sandwich the Linen Thread inside.
I repeated the same process to attached the next Cookie to the other side of the Linen Thread.
I punched holes in the front flap with a hole punch.
I closed the flap and made pencil marks through the holes onto the body of the box. I punched more holes where the marks were.
I cut 16" of Real Red Double Stitched Satin Ribbon and threaded it from the inside of the box through the back of the flap to the front.
I crossed the ribbons and layer the Cookie Hanger I made over the ribbon then tied a bow.
For the final touch I added 3 Matte Decorative Dots to the box.
One to the middle of each off the Snowflakes and one to the top of the sentiment.
