SPRING FOLD OVER BOX with FRIENDLY GNOMES - Stampin' Up!



Hi Friends!
My project today is a 3 1/4  x  3 1/4  x  1" Spring Treat Box.  I used the Friendly Gnomes stamp set, Gnomes dies, Layering Circle dies, Gingham Cottage Designer Series paper and Regency Park Designer Series Paper.



I started with a piece of Balmy Blue Cardstock sized
9 1/4  x  7 1/4".
I scored the  9 1/4" side at:
2,  3,  6 1/4  and  7 1/4".
I scored the  7 1/4" side at:
1,  2,  5 1/4  and  6 1/4".
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 and cutting.


I attached several pieces of Regency Park and Gingham Cottage Designer Series papers to the box.
(4)  1 3/4  x  3"  2 of each DSP for the top and bottom of the larger flaps.
(8)  3/4  x  3"  6 of Regency Park and 2 Gingham Cottage for sides and small flaps.
I attached the DSP to the box with Liquid Glue.


I cut a  2 1/2" circle from Gingham Cottage DSP and
a 2 5/8" scalloped circle from Night of Navy Cardstock using the Layering Circle dies.
I attached them together with Liquid Glue.


I stamped the Gnome, Bird and Sentiment, from Friendly Gnomes stamp set, onto Basic White Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I colored the images with Stampin' Blends.
Light Flirty Flamingo  -  Top of Nose
Light Petal Pink  -  Gnomes Face, Nose and Hands.
Light and Dark Balmy Blue  -  Hat, Shirt and Pants
Light and Dark Smokey Slate  -  Beard and Shoes
Dark Daffodil Delight  -  Flowers Middles
Light Daffodil Delight  -  Bird
Dark Pumpkin Pie  -  Beak
I cut the Gnome out using the Gnome dies and I fussy cut the Bird out by hand.


I attached the Gnome and Bird to the box with Dimensionals.
I tied a bow with Balmy Blue Variegated Ribbon and attached it to the upper left side of the box with 2 Glue Dots and a dab of Liquid Glue on the back of the knot.


I added some Wink of Stella Glitter on the Hat and for the final touch I added 3 Fun Flower Resin Shapes around the Gnome.
