COUNT ON ME KANGAROO SPRING BOX with ABSTRACT BEAUTY - Stampin' Up!

Shop Stampin' Up! Here

Hi Friends!

My project today is a Square Box that measures

2 1/2  x  2 1/2  x  1 1/4".  It will fit 2 Peppermint Patties, 2 Reeses Peanut Butter Cups and Hershey Kisses.  I used Count on Me stamp set, Layering Circle dies and Abstract Beauty Designer Series Paper.

You can watch my Video Tutorial Here!

I started with a piece of Balmy Blue Cardstock sized  8  x  7 1/2".

I scored the  8" side at:

1 1/4,  3 3/4,  5  and  7 1/2".

I scored the  7 1/2" side at:

1 1/4,  3 3/4  and  5".

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, cutting and rounding the corners of the flap with the Detail Trio Punch.

I attached several pieces of Abstract Beauty Designer Series Paper to the box.

(4)  2 1/4  x  2 1/4"  for the inside and outside of the flap and front and back of the box.

(4)  2 1/4  x  1"  for the sides.

I attached the DSP to the box with Liquid Glue.

I put my goodies inside the box and tied a doubled piece of Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon around the side of the box.  I tied a bow on the right side.

I stamped the Kangaroo image, from Count on Me stamp set, onto Basic White Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.

I cut the top of the image out with a  1 5/8" circle from the Layering Circle dies.

I colored the image with Stampin' Blends.

Light and Dark Crumb Cake for the Kangaroo Body.

Light and Dark So Saffron for the Flower.

Light Smokey Slate for the Nose.

Light Flirty Flamingo for the Inner Ears.

Light Old Olive for the Leaf.

I cut a Scalloped Circle, 1 3/4", from So Saffron Cardstock and

a Balmy Blue circle, 1 7/8", using the Layering Circle dies.

I attached the Image circle to the Scalloped circle and then both to the Balmy Blue Circle with Liquid Glue.

I added Wink of Stella Glitter to the Flower and for the final touch I added Yellow Matte Decorative Dots around the Kangaroo.
