HIPPEST HIPPOS GIFT BOX with HIPPO DIES -SALE-A-BRATION - Stampin' Up!

Shop Stampin' Up! Here

Hi Friends!My project today is a Gift Box that measures  5  x  3 3/4  x  1 1/4".  I used some new SALE-A-BRATION items that are free with a $50.00 purchase starting July 1st.  They are Hippest Hippos stamp set and the Hippo dies.  I also used Stylish Shapes dies, Butterfly Kisses Designer Series Paper and 2022 - 2024 In Color Designer Series Paper.
You can watch my Video Tutorial Here!

I started with a piece of Daffodil Delight Cardstock sized

10 1/2  x  6 1/4".

I scored the  10 1/2" side at:

1/2,  4 1/4,  5 1/2  and  9 1/4".

I scored the  6 1/4" side at:

1 1/4,  5  and  5 3/4".

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 4 pieces of Tahitian Tide 2022-2024 In Color Designer Series Paper to the box.

(2)  3 1/2  x  3 1/2"

(2)  1/2  x  3 1/2"

I attached the DSP to the box with Liquid Glue.

I cut out 3 - 3" circles using the Stylish Shapes dies.

(1)  Butterfly Kisses DSP

(1)  Tahitian Tide Cardstock

(1)  Crumb Cake Cardstock

I cut the Tahitian Tide Cardstock with the Wavy die from Hippo Dies about 1 1/4" from the bottom of the circle.

I cut the Crumb Cake circle to about 3/4".

I attached them both to the Butterfly Kisses DSP circe with Liquid Glue.

I added some Wink of Stella Glitter to the Tahitian Tide waves.

I stamped the Hippo, from Hippest Hippo stamp set, onto Basic White Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.

I colored the Hippo with Stampin' Blends.

Light and Dark Smokey Slate for the Hippo.

Light Flirty Flamingo for the mouth.

I cut a mask and snorkel from Polished Pink Cardstock,

4 flowers from Daffodil Delight Cardstock and

2 flowers from Polished Pink Cardstock using the Hippo dies.

I attached the Hippo to the circles with Dimensionals.

I attached the mask, snorkel and flowers with Liquid Glue and my Silicone Mat.

I stamped the sentiment onto Tahitian Tide Cardstock and cut it out by hand.

I cut the sentiment in half and attached it to the upper left corner with Liquid Glue.

I attached all of the flowers, as shown above, around the Hippo and Sentiment with Liquid Glue.

I tied a bow with Glittered Organdy Ribbon and attached it above the sentiment with Liquid Glue.

For the final touch I added 2021-2023 In Color Opal Rounds to the middle of the flowers.
