Hi Friends!
My project today is a Slider Window Box that measures 4 x 2 x 1 1/4". The box will fit 3 Lindor Truffles or 4 Ghirardelli Squares. I used Sweet Candy Canes stamp set, Candy Cane dies, Sweetest Christmas Designer Series Paper, Snowflake Specialty Vellum and Rectangle Stitched dies.
I started with a piece of Real Red Cardstock sized
6 1/2 x 4 1/2".
I scored the 6 1/2" side at:
1 1/4 and 5 1/4".
I scored the 4 1/2" side at:
1 1/4 and 3 1/4".
To cut and put the inside of 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 wrapped a piece of Sweetest Christmas Designer Series Paper around the Cardstock sized
7 1/2 x 4 1/16".
I made sure to crease 2 sides at a time.
After the first 2 creases take your Cardstock off the box and reinforce the creases with your Bone Folder.
Do the same for the next two sides.
I cut the window in the front part of the DSP strip with a 1 1/4 x 3 1/4" Rectangle die from the Stitched Rectangle dies.
I attached a piece of Snowflake Specialty Vellum to the inside of the DSP sized
1 7/8 x 3 7/8" with Liquid glue on the edges.
I wrapped the DSP around the box again and attached the overlapping ends with Liquid Glue.
I used my Stamparatus to stamp the Candy Cane image from Sweet Candy Canes stamp set onto Basic White Cardstock with Real Red Ink.
I cut the Candy Cane out using the Candy Cane dies.
I attached it to the front of the box, diagonally over the Vellum window with Dimensionals.
I wrapped Real Red Ribbon around the short side of the box and tied a bow at the top.
I cut 2 branches from Garden Green Cardstock using a die from the Mini pocket dies.
I attached the branches under the bow with Liquid Glue.
I stamped the sentiment, from Sweet Candy Canes stamp set, onto Basic White Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I cut the sentiment out with a small die from the Tailor Made Tags dies.
I cut the top off the tag and attached it under the bow with Liquid Glue.
I secured the bow down with a Glue Dot under the knot.
I punched a 1/4" circle in the side of the inner box with a small hole punch.
I attached a piece of Real Red Cardstock inside, covering the hole, sized 1 7/8 x 1 1/8" and repunched the hole again.
I tied a knot in the end of a 6 1/2" piece of Iridescent Trim and poked the loop part from the inside of the box to the outside.
I added 3 Red Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the end of the tag and for the final touch I added a Rhinestone Basic Jewel to each Branch.
