AWESOME OTTERS HEXAGON GIFT BAG with BEAUTIFUL SHAPES DIES - Stampin' Up! *



Hi Friends!
I wish you all a Merry Christmas!!!
My project today is a  3 x 3 x 1"  Gift Bag.  I used Awesome Otters stamp set and Sunshine and Rainbows Designer Series Paper.  Both are SALEABRATION items free with a $50 purchase.  I also used the Beautiful Shapes dies which are in the new Mini Catalog.



I started with a piece of Pool Party Cardstock sized  8 1/2  x  4 1/2".
I scored the  8 1/2" side at:
1, 4, 5 and 8".
I scored the  4 1/2" side at:
1 and 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 attached 2 pieces of Sunshine and Rainbows Saleabration Designer Series Paper to the box.
(2)  2 3/4  x  2 3/4"
I attached the DSP to the box with Liquid Glue.
I stamped the image, from Awesome Otters stamp set, onto Basic White Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.

I colored the image with Stampin' Blends.
Light and Dark Pool Party for the Water.
Light and Dark Crumb Cake for the Otter.
Light Smokey Slate for the Nose.
I cut the image out with a Hexagon die from Beautiful Shapes dies.


I cut a larger Hexagon from striped paper in the same DSP pack.
I attached the stamped image on top of the striped Hexagon with Dimensionals.
I attached both Hexagons to the front of the box with Dimensionals also.
I puched 2 holes in the front and back of the top of the box with a 1/8" hole punch.
I ran Pool Party Striped Ribbon through the holes and tied a bow at the front.
I added some Wink of Stella Glitter to the Otters nose and eyes.
For the final touch I added 3 Classic Matte dots to the water.
