CHRISTMAS GNOME CHOCOLATE PRETZEL GIFT BOX with the GNOME DIES - Stampin' Up!



Hi Friends!
My project today is a Christmas Gnome Gift Box that holds a Chocolate Covered Pretzel that I purchased from Target.  It measures  5 x 3 x 1".  I used the Gnome dies, Dots & Spots die, Sweet Gingerbread stamp set and Gingerbread House dies.



I started with a piece of Real Red Cardstock sized
8 1/2  x  6".
I scored the  8 1/2" side at:
1/2,  3 1/2,  4 1/2  and  7 1/2".
I scored the  6" side at:
1  and  5 1/4".
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, cutting and rounding the corners of the top flaps.


I die cut a piece of Crumb Cake Cardstock using the Dots & Spots Die.
After die cutting I cut the Cardstock down to 2 1/2  x  3 3/4".
I attached the Die Cut to the front of the box with Mini Dimensionals.


I die cut the Gnome out using the Gnomes dies.
Hat  -  Sweetest Christmas Designer Series Paper
Beard  -  Basic White Cardstock
Legs  -  Basic Black Cardstock
Nose  -  Petal Pink Cardstock
I put the Gnome together using my Silicone Mat and Liquid Glue.
I attached the Gnome to the Crumb Cake die cut with Mini Dimensionals and Dimensionals.


I cut 2 large boughs and 1 small one out of Garden Green Cardstock using the Decorated Pink dies.
I cut the pieces of the greens apart, stuck them in behind the Gnomes and attached them with Liquid Glue.
I stamped the small wreath, from Sweet Gingerbread stamp set, onto Basic White Cardstock using Garden Green Ink.
I cut the Wreath out using the Gingerbread House dies and attached it to the lower right side of the Gnomes Beard with Liquid Glue.


I punched 2 holes in the top flaps with a 1/8" hole punch.
I ran Garden Green Ribbon through the holes and tied a bow at the front.
I brushed some Wink of Stella onto the Pine Needles.
I added a Large Adhesive Backed Star to the Gnome's Hat, 3 Red Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the Wreath and 5 Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the Pine Boughs.
