MERRY & BRIGHT CHRISTMAS BULB TREAT BOX with MERRY, BOLD & BRIGHT - Stampin' Up!



Hi Friends!
My project today is a Christmas Treat Box that measures  3 1/2  x  5 1/4  x  1 1/4".  I used the Merry & Bright stamp set and dies Bundle, Stylish Shapes dies, Merry, Bright & Bold Designer Series Paper and Inked Botanicals Designer Series Paper.

You can watch my Video Tutorial Here!


I started with a pieces of Real Red Cardstock sized
10  x  6 1/2"
I scored the  10" side at:
1 1/4,  4 3/4,  6  and 9 1/2".
I scored the  6 1/2" side at:
1 1/4,  4 3/4  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 and cutting.


I attached several pieces of Merry, Bold & Bright Designer Series Paper to the Box.
(2)  3 1/4  x  3 1/4"  front and back
(2)  1  x  3 1/4"  sides
(1)  7/8  x  3 1/4"  front top
(1)  3/4  x  3 1/4"  back top
I attached the DSP to the box with Liquid Glue.


I stamped the Bulb, from Merry & Bright stamp set onto Basic White Cardstock.
One with Real Red Ink and one with Granny Apple Green Ink.
I stamped the caps of the lights with Garden Green Ink.
I stamped the Green Filament with Garden Green Ink.
I stamped the Red Filament with Cherry Cobbler Ink.
I cut the images out using the Merry & Bright dies.


I cut a wire from Garden Green Cardstock with the Merry & Bright dies.
I attached the pieces of each Bulb together with Liquid Glue.
I strung the lights onto the wire and put some Liquid Glue on the to attached it to the Bulbs.


I cut a 2 3/4  x  2 3/4" square from Garden Green Cardstock and a 2 1/2" circle from Inked Botanicals DSP using the Stylish Shapes dies.
I attached the top of the Bulbs and Wire to the circle with Liquid Glue.
I added a Dimensional under the end of each Bulb.
I attached the circle to the square with Dimensionals.


I attached the entire piece to the front of the box with Dimensionals.
I stamped the sentiments onto Basic White Cardstock with Real Red and Granny Apple Green Inks.
I cut the sentiments out by hand and attached them to the top/front of the box with Liquid Glue.


I put my Treat inside the box and tied Glittered Organdy Ribbon around the top flaps and tied a bow at the front.
For the final touch I added 2 white Glitter Sequins to the Bulbs.
