Hi Friends!
My project today is a Nesting Box that measures
3 3/4 x 4 3/4 x 1 1/4". I used Sweetest Cherries stamp set, the Cherry Builder Punch, Awash in Beauty Designer Series Paper, Stylish Shapes dies, Layering Circle dies and Natural Finish Ribbon.
I started with the bottom of the box first.
I used a piece of Merry Merlot (or Mossy Meadow) Cardstock sized
10 1/2 x 6".
I scored the 10 1/2" side at:
1/2, 4 1/4, 5 1/2 and 9 1/4".
I scored the 6" side at:
1 1/4"
Next I did the top of the box.
I used a piece of Awash in Beauty Designer Series Paper sized
10 1/2 x 5".
Make sure your pattern is upside down when you are scoring the long side.
I scored the 10 1/2" side at:
1/2, 4 1/4, 5 1/2 and 9 1/4".
I scored the 5" side at:
1 1/4".
To cut and put the box together you can watch my Video Tutorial Here.
Below are pictures of how the top and bottom of your box should look after scoring and cutting.
I cut two circles using the Stylish Shapes dies.
One from Basic White Cardstock that measures 2 1/2".
One from Merry Merlot Cardstock that measures 3".
I cut a scalloped circle using the Layering Circle dies.
One from Mossy Meadow Cardstock that measures 2 7/8".
I stamped the Basic White Circle with the background stamp, from Sweetest Cherries stamp set, with Soft Seafoam Ink.
I stamped the Cherries onto Basic White Cardstock with Merry Merlot Ink.
I stamped the Stems and Leaves with Mossy Meadow Ink.
I cut the images out using the Cherry Builder Punch.
I attached the the 3 circles together, with the largest on the bottom with Liquid Glue.
I attached the Cherries, Stems and Leaves on to the Basic White circle with Liquid Glue.
I wound Natural Finish Ribbon around the long side of the box and tied a bow at the top.
I put 2 Dimensionals onto each side of the back of the Cherry embellishment and attached it over the ribbon.
I cut a label from Soft Seafoam Cardstock using the Stylish Shapes dies.
I stamped the "thank you" sentiment (the top only of one of the stamps) to the left side.
I cut off the right end of the label, leaving about 1/4" after the sentiment.
I attached the label to the left side under the cherries with a Dimensional on the left and Liquid Glue on the right.
I made a small bow with Linen Thread and attached it to the top of the Stems with Liquid Glue.
For the final touch I added 2 Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the end of the sentiment.
