SWEET GINGERBREAD TREAT BOX with GINGERBREAD HOUSE DIES - Stampin' Up!



Hi Friends!
My project today is a Gingerbread House Treat Box that measures  3 1/4  x  4 1/2  x  1 1/2".  I used the Sweet Gingerbread stamp set, Gingerbread House dies, Santa's Express Designer Series Paper and Iridescent Trim.



I started with a piece of Crumb Cake Cardstock sized
10  x  6 1/4"
I scored the  10" side at:
1 1/2,  4 3/4,  6 1/4  and  9 1/2".
I scored the  6 1/4" side at:
1 1/2  and  4 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, cutting and rounding the corners of the flap.


I attached 6 pieces of Santa's Express Designer Series Paper to the box.
(2)  3  x  3"  for the front and back
(4)  3  x  1 1/4"  for the top flaps and sides.
Make sure to round the corners one of the long sides to match the top flaps.
I attached the DSP to the box with Liquid Glue.


I stamped the Gingerbread House pieces on to Basic White Cardstock.
House  -  Crumb Cake Ink
Windows  -  Real Red Ink
Roof, Door and Decorations  -  Early Espresso Ink
Wreath and Trees  -  Garden Green Ink
Gumdrops  -  Daffodil Delight Ink
I cut the pieces out using the Gingerbread House dies.
I cut a snowdrift from Basic White Cardstock that was  3 1/4"  by about  1 1/2" high.


I attached the Snow Drift to the box with Liquid Glue.
Next I attached the House with Dimensionals.
I attached the Door, Wreath and Gumdrops to the house with Liquid Glue.
I attached the Trees to the snow with Liquid Glue also.


I punched two holes in the front and back flaps with a 1/4" hole punch.
I ran Iridescent Trim through the holes and tied a bow in the front.
For the final touch I added 3 Red Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the Wreath and 1 for the Door Knob.
