LET'S GO SHOPPING BOOKSHELF ORNAMENT GIFT BOX with LES SHOPPES - Stampin' Up!


Shop Stampin' Up! Here

Hi Friends!
My project today is a Gift Box that I made for a Bookshelf Ornament.  It measures  4  x  4 3/4  x  3/4".  I used the Let's Go Shopping stamp set & dies Bundle, Les Shoppes Designer Series Paper, Lemon Lolly Ribbon and 2022-2024 In Color Pearls.

You can watch my Video Tutorial Here!


I started with a piece of Balmy Blue Cardstock sized
10  x  5 1/2".
I scored the  10" side at:
1/2,  4 1/2,  5 1/4  and  9 1/4".
I scored the  5 1/2" side at:
3/4,  4 1/4  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, cutting and rounding the top corners.


I attached 6 pieces of Les Shoppes Designer Series Paper to the box.
(2)  3 3/4  x  3 1/4"  front and back
(2)  1/2  x  3 3/4"  top
(2)  1/2  x  3 1/4"  sides
I attached the DSP to the box with Liquid Glue.


I stamped the 2 floors of the Shop onto Basic White Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.
Then, I stamped the Books inside the Window  and the Planters with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I cut the images out with the Let's Go Shopping dies.
I also cut the awning and Lamppost out.  The background from Lemon Lolly and the stripes from Balmy Blue.  The Lamp Post Basic Black.


I colored the images with Stampin' Blends.
Light Balmy Blue  -  Building, Door Sign and some Books
Light and Dark Lemon Lolly  -  Door, Mail Slot, Moldings, Lamps and some Books
Light Old Olive  -  Plants and some Books
Dark Smokey Slate  -  Planters and Stoop
Dark Pumpkin Pie and Light Night of Navy  -  Some Books


I attached the 2 pieces of the Building to the box with Dimensionals.
I attached the Awning to the Window with Mini Dimensionals.
I attached the Lampost first then the Planters with Liquid Glue.


I punched 2 sets of Holes in the top of the box with a 1/8" Hole Punch (or similar).
I ran Lemon Lolly Ribbon through the Holes and tied a bow at the front.
For the final touch I added 3 Starry Sky 2022-2024 In Color Pearls.
