LOVE CATS FUN SIZE VALENTINE TREAT BOX - Stampin' Up!



Hi Friends!
My project today is a Fun Size Valentine Treat Box that measures  3 1/2  x  3  x  1/2".  I used the Love Cats stamp set, Stylish Shapes dies, Layering Circle dies and Country Floral Lane Designer Series Paper.  You can get two boxes from one sheet of Cardstock.



I started with a piece of Basic Black Cardstock sized
8 1/4  x  5 1/2".
I scored the  8 1/4" side at:
1 1/4,  1 3/4,  4 3/4  and  5 1/4".
I scored the  5 1/2" side at:
1/2,  1,  4 1/2  and  5".
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 several pieces of Country Floral Lane Designer Series Paper to the box.
(3)  3 1/4  x  2 3/4"  front, back and inside of flap.
(1)  3 1/2  x  1"  for the front 1/4" above the bottom of the DSP.
(1)  3 1/4  x  1  the inside bottom of the box.
I attached the DSP to the box with Liquid Glue.


I used my Stamparatus to stamp the Cat images, from Love Cats stamp set,  onto Basic White Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I cut the image out using a  2 1/8" circle die from the Stylish Shapes dies.
I cut 2 more circles out using the Layering Circle dies.  A 2 3/8" circle from Sweet Sorbet and a 2 1/2" scalloped circle from Basic Black.  I attached the circles together with Liquid Glue.


I stamped the "Hi There Valentine" sentiment onto Sweet Sorbet Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I cut it out by hand and attached it to the upper right side of the box with a Dimenional and Liquid Glue.
I stamped the inside sentiment onto Basic White Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I cut it with a label from the Stylish Shapes dies.
I attached it inside the flap with Liquid Glue.


I put 2 fun sized Heart Peppermint Patties into the box.
I tied Black & White Gingham Ribbon around the long side of the box, in the middle of the striped DSP, and tied a bow on the left side.
I attached the circles on top of the Ribbon with Dimensionals.


I attached a small Heart Pearl to the side of the sentiment and for the final touch I added 2 Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the left side of the circles.
