LET'S SET SAIL NAUTICAL GIFT BOX with ABSTRACT BEAUTY - Stampin' Up!

Shop Stampin' Up! Here

Hi Friends!

My project today is a square box that measures  3 1/2  x  3 1/2  x  1 1/4".  I used the new Let's Set Sail stamp set and Sailboat Builder Punch along with Abstract Beauty Designer Series Paper.

I will put some Salt Water Taffy and a Gift Card inside for my recipient.

You can watch my Video Tutorial Here!

I started with a piece of Night of Navy Cardstock sized

10 3/4  x  7".

I scored the  10 3/4" side at:

1 1/4,  4 3/4,  6  and  9 1/2".

I scored the  7" side at:

1/2,  1 3/4,  5 1/4  and  6 1/2".

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 Abstract Beauty Designer Series Paper to the box.

(1)  3 1/4  x  3 1/4"  for the top.

(4)  3 1/4  x  1"  for the outside front flap and sides.

I attached the DSP to the box with Liquid Glue.

I cut 2 of the largest Hexagons from the Beautiful Shapes dies.  One from the flip side of the same Piece of Abstract Beauty DSP that is on the box and one from Night of Navy Cardstock.

I stamped the bottom of the DSP Hexagon with the long stamp from Let's Set Sail stamp set using Balmy Blue Ink.

I stamped the Seagulls to the upper left corner with Tuxedo Black Ink.

I attached the DSP Hexagon to the Night of Navy Hexagon, slightly off to the left, with Liquid Glue.

I stamped the Sailboat using 3 stamps from Let's Set Sail stamp set.

I stamped the Boat and Mast with Night of Navy.

I stamped both Sails with Balmy Blue.

I cut the Sailboat pieces out using the Sailboat Builder Punch.

I attached the Mast and Boat to the Hexagons with Liquid Glue.

I attached the Sails with a Mini Dimensional in the middle and Liquid Glue on the top and bottom.

I attached the entire embellishment to the middle of the box top with Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.  I cut the bottom only of the sentiment out by hand and attached it to the bottom, just touching the bottom of the hexagons, with 3 Mini Dimensionals.

I punched 2 holes in the front flap and matching ones in the body of the box with a 1/8" hole punch.

I cut 2  12" pieces of Blue Twine, from Fan Bakers Twine, through the holes and tied a bow at the front.

For the final touch I added 3 Night of Navy Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels onto the box.
