Hi Friends!
My project today is a Treat Box that measures 5 x 2 3/4 x 1 1/4". I used the Friendly Gnomes stamp set, Very Best Trio Punch, Stylish Shapes dies, Layering Circle dies and Awash in Beauty Designer Series Paper.
I started with a piece of Balmy Blue Cardstock sized
8 1/2 x 6 1/2".
I scored the 8 1/2" side at:
1 1/4, 4, 5 1/4 and 8".
I scored the 6 1/2" side at:
1 1/4, 5 and 5 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 punching the corners of the top flaps with the Very Best Trio Punch.
I attached 4 pieces of Awash in Beauty Designer Series Paper to the box.
(2) 2 1/2 x 3 1/2" front and back
(2) 1 x 3 1/2" sides
I attached the DSP to the box with Liquid Glue.
I cut a 2 1/4" scalloped circle from Thick Basic White Cardstock using the Layering Circle dies.
I also cut a 2 1/8" stitched circle from Basic White Cardstock using the Stylish Shapes dies.
I stamped the Mushroom, from Friendly Gnomes stamp set, onto the stitched circle with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I stamped the Squirrel onto another piece of Basic White Cardstock with Tuxedo Black ink.
I fussy cut the Squirrel out by hand.
I colored the images with Stampin' Blends.
Light and Dark Smokey Slate - Squirrel and Walkway Stones
Light and Dark Daffodil Delight - Spots, Bottom and underneath of Mushroom
Light Polished Pink - Top of Mushroom, Window Sil, Door Knob and Door Frame
Light Fresh Freesia - Door and Flowers
Light Old Olive - Grass
Light Balmy Blue - Sky and Window Panes
I wound Balmy Blue Double Stitched Ribbon around the bottom of the box and tied a knot on the front/left side.
I attached the circles together with Liquid Glue and attached the entire piece above the Ribbon with Dimensionals.
I attached the Squirrel to the right of the circles with Mini Diemensionals. (double stack on the right of the Squirrel)
I stamped the sentiment on a Basic White small label, cut with the Stylish Shapes dies, with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I attached the sentiment to the upper part of the front of the box with Liquid Glue.
I punched 2 sets of holes in the top flap of the box and ran Glittered Organdy Ribbon through them.
I tied a bow at the front.
For the final touch I added 2 Balmy Blue Solid Faceted Gem on either side of the sentiment.
