SIT STAY RELAX PINCH BOX with TEA BOUTIQUE - Stampin' Up!



Hi Friends!
My project today I made a Pinch Box (pinch to close the top) that measures  4 1/4  x  3 1/4  x  1 1/4".  I used one of the New 2022-2024 In Colors, Parakeet Party!  It is a lovely Bright Green color.  I used the new Host set, available on May 4 with a purchase/party of $150 or more, called Sit Stay Relax.  I also used Tea Boutique Designer Series Paper, Stylish Shapes dies and Glittered Organdy Ribbon.



I started with a piece of Parakeet Party Cardstock sized
9 1/2  x  6 1/2"
I scored the  9 1/2" side at:
1/2,  3 3/4,  5  and  8 1/4".
I scored the  6 1/2" side at:
1 1/4  and  5 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, cutting and rounding the corners of the top flap.


I attached Tea Boutique Designer Series Paper to the box.
(2)  3 x 4"  for the front and back
(1)  3  x  3/4"  for the top flap.
Make sure to round the corners of one of the long sides to match the Cardstock flap.
I attached the DSP to the box with Liquid Glue.


I stamped the chair image from Sit Stay Relax stamp set onto Basic White Cardstock with Pear Pizzazz Ink.
I cut the image out with a stitched square, sized 2 3/8  x  2 3/8", from the Stylish Shape dies.
I stamped the image again onto Basic White Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I colored the Cat only with Stampin' Blends.
First I drew a line of Light Smokey Slate line along the left side of the cat.
Then I softened the line with the Color Lifter dragging the color a little to the right.
I fussy cut just the Cat out by hand.


I attached the cat over the cat in the Pear Pizzazz image with Liquid Glue.
I cut a piece of Parakeet Party Cardstock, sized  2 1/2  x  2 1/2", and attached the stitched square on top with Liquid Glue.
I attached the entire piece to the front of the box with Dimensionals.


I punched holes in the flap and body of the box with a small hole punch.
I ran about 13" of Glittered Organdy Ribbon through the holes and tied the box with a bow in the front.
I stamped the sentiment, from Sit Stay Relax stamp set, onto a scrap of Parakeet Party Cardstock.
I cut the sentiment out with a tag die from the Stylish Shapes dies.
I attached the tag with a Mini Dimensional on the right side and a dab of Liquid Glue on the left.
For the final touch I added 3 Metallic Pearls around the chair.
