Hi Friends!
My project today is a Window Box that measures 4 1/4 x 2 1/2 x 1". I put Russell Stover foil covered Santas inside. I used Penguin Place stamp set, the Penguin Punch, Gingerbread dies, Stockings dies and Real Red Mini Ruffled Ribbon.
I started with a piece of Real Red Cardstock sized 7 1/2 x 5 1/4".
I scored the 7 1/2" side at:
1, 3 1/2, 4 1/2 and 7".
I scored the 5 1/4" side at:
1".
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.
Before putting the box together I had to cut the window.
First I attached a 2 1/4 x 4" piece of Gingerbread and Peppermint Designer Series Paper onto the front of the box. The front panel is the panel on the left side.
I taped the snowflake outline die, from Gingerbread dies, about 1/8" up from the bottom of the middle Panel and ran it through my machine.
I attached a 2 3/8 x 2 3/8" piece of Window Sheet to the back of the window cut out with Glue Dots.
Then I put the box together with Tear and Tape.
I cut a tag from Real Red Cardstock using the tag die from Gingerbread dies.
I placed the point of the tag to the left side of my Simply Scored and scored at 1 1/2".
I attached from the scoreline down to the back of the box with Liquid Glue.
I cut a 2 x 2" piece of the same DSP with the pointed side of the same die. I cut the piece down to 1 1/4" in length.
I attached the dies cut to the front flap of the box with Liquid Glue.
I Cut a Penguin out using the Penguin Builder Punch.
I cut the inner body from Basic White Cardstock.
I cut the outer body from Basic Black Cardstock.
I cut the feet from Pumpkin Pie Cardstock.
I stamped the antlers onto Basic White Cardstock with Cinnamon Cider Ink.
I fussy cut the antlers out by hand.
I attached the pieces of the Penguin together with Liquid Glue.
I attached the penguin to the box with Dimensionals on the body and cut down pieces of Dimensionals on the antlers.
For the final touch I tied a bow with Real Red Mini Ruffled Ribbon and attached it to the front flap of the box with 2 Glue Dots.
