Very Best Treat Box with Elephant Parade - Stampin' Up!



Hi Friends!
My project today is a Treat Box I made with the Very Best Trio Punch.  It measures  4 x 4 x 1".  I also used the Elephant Parade stamp set, Elephant dies, Layering Circle dies, Something Fancy dies and Happy Forest Friends Designer Series Paper.



I started with a piece of Pear Pizzazz Cardstock sized
10 1/2  x  5".
I scored the  10 1/2" side at:
1,  5,  6  and  10".
I scored the  5" side at:
1"  and 
4" avoiding the front and back main pieces of the box.
(I use a ruler to keep my scored straight)
To cut the box you can watch my Video Tutorial Here.
Below is how your Cardstock should look after scoring and cutting.


Before putting the box together I attached 2 pieces of Happy Forest Friends Designer Series Paper to the box.
I punched the corners of the top of each piece using the Very Best Trio Punch.
(2)  3 3/4  x  3 3/4"  front and back.
I attached the DSP to the box with Liquid Glue.

I cut the images out using the Elephant dies.
I colored the images with Stampin' Blends.
Light and Dark Smokey Slate  -  Elephant
Light Flirty Flamingo  -  Elephant's Ear and Flower
Light and Dark Old Olive  -  Leaves


I cut 2 circles out using the Layering Circle dies.
A  2 3/4" scalloped circle from Pear Pizzazz Cardstock.
A 2 5/8" circle from Happy Forest Friends DSP.
I attached them together with Liquid Glue.
I attached the Elephant to the box with Dimensionals.
I attached the Leaves and Flower to the box with Liquid Glue.
I cut some Grass from Mossy Meadow Cardstock using the Elephant dies.
I cut the grass in half and attached a piece on each side of the Elephant with Liquid Glue.


I attached the entire piece to the front of the box with Dimensionals.
I stamped the sentiment onto Sahara Sand Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I cut the sentiment out with a label die from the Something Fancy dies.
I cut the "happy Day!" off the label and attached it to the box with a Mini Dimensional and Liquid Glue.
For the final touch I added a Classic Matte Dot to the end of the sentiment.
