Hi Friends!
My project today is a Treat Box for 3 Merci Chocolates. It measures 3 1/4 x 2 1/4 x 1/2". You can get two of these boxes from one sheet of Cardstock. I used Snowman Magic stamp set, the Snowman dies, Fabulous Frames dies, Sweetest Christmas Designer Series paper and White Glimmer Paper.
I started with a piece of Shaded Spruce Cardstock sized
10 3/4 x 3 1/4".
I scored the 10 3/4" side at:
3 1/4, 3 3/4, 7 and 7 1/2".
I scored the 3 1/4" side at:
1/2 and 2 3/4".
To cut and put the box together you can watch my Video Tutorial Here.
I attached 3 pieces of Sweetest Christmas Designer Series Paper to the box.
(3) 2 x 3".
I put the first piece on the opposite side from the flap on before I put the box together.
I cut a partial circle with a 2 1/4" or similar die or punch.
I put the other 2 pieces on the front and under the front flap.
I attached the DSP to the box with Liquid Glue.
I cut 3 trees from Shaded Spruce Cardstock using the Snowman dies.
I attached a full Tree to the upper right side of the box with Liquid Glue.
I shortened the next tree down to 6 branches and attached it to the bottom left side of the box.
I stamped the Snowman, Hat Eyes & Nose and Buttons, from Snowman Magic stamp set, onto Basic White Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I stamped the Scarf with Real Red Ink.
I cut all the pieces out using the Snowman dies.
I cut the Arms from Early Espresso Cardstock.
I attached the Snowman pieces together with Liquid Glue and my Silicone Mat.
I colored the Hat Band with a Dark Shaded Spruce Stampin' Blend.
I colored the Nose with a Dark Pumpkin Pie Stampin' Blend.
I cut an Oval from White Glimmer Paper using the Fabulous Frames dies.
I ran 18" of Glittered Organdy Ribbon around the short side of the box.
I attached the Oval on top of the Ribbon with Dimensionals.
I attached the Snowman onto the Oval with Liquid Glue.
I cut another Shaded Spruce Tree down to 4 Branches and attached it to the left side of the box with a small strip of Dimensional and Liquid Glue at the top.
I stamped the Sentiment onto Basic White Cardstock with Real Red Ink.
I fussy cut the Sentiment out by hand and attached it inside the flap with Liquid Glue.
I tied the ribbon in a bow on the right hand side of the box.
For the final touch I added a Red Rhinestone Basic Jewel to the Hat Band and 3 Adhesive Backed Stars to the trees.
