TODAY IS 3D THURSDAY

This week I always knew that I wanted to create a super large gift box to hold 20+ cards and envelopes.

The finished box measures 6 7/8″x 4 3/4″ and is 5″ deep.

After designing the pattern for this box and then cutting and assembling it, I then added card panels inside each area of the box to give it greater sturdiness and stability.

Once I had finsihed the gift box structure I then added Misty Moonlight card panels on the exterior areas of the gift box. This added colour and stability.

I wrapped a very long length of the Misty Moonlight Silver Edged Ribbon around the box, securing it to the front of the box.

The Misty Moonlight panel, on the top of the box, was then secured over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

This top panel then had many of the ephemera elements attached to it.

‘Thanks’ was the chosen greeting because I think this box of cards would make an amzing gift to thank someone for what they have done.

When this large gift box is opened, there are two sections holding cards that have covering panels to hold everything in place.

When the covering panels are removed, the cards are revealed.

Tomorrow I will show you the final cards that were made.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

TODAY IS 3D THURSDAY

Today I have two versions of the same 3D gift box to share with you.

The first one is the project that I had instructions to make from the Creativity Now event.

This box was made using a panel of one of the DSP designs, measuring 11″x 4″.

This piece was then scored at 3″, 4″, *’ and 9″. Then along the 4″ side it was scored at 1″ and 3″,

When the 1″ tabs are cut and the score lines burnished, the box can be assembled. The lid folds across and overlaps.

The greeting was stamped and die cut. Then some leaves were stamped on the tag and the glimmer paper leaves were adhered onto the tag as well.

A length of the Misty Moonlight Silver Edged Ribbon was wrapped around the box and tied in a bow.

Finally, some of the Hues of Blues Flowers were added to embellish the box lid.

The second version is made from the Peaceful Garden blue Glimmer Paper.

For this version I did not want to use a ribbon finish so I chose a belly band closure in soft green..

Then I die cut three butterflies using the Beautiful Butterflies Dies.

The greeting and die are also from the Beautiful Butterflies Bundle.

It is always wonderful to see how different one project can look just by using different papers, greetings and embellishments.

Tomorrow’s final project is a fun fold card.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

THURSDAY IS TIME FOR A 3D TREAT

Today’s 3D project was inspired by a spare butterfly from Monday’s scrapbooking layout.

I used the spare Berry Burst bokeh and Basic White butterfly and created a gift box for it.

The Berry Burst box measures 2 1/2″x 2 1/2″ and is 3″ deep. The lid is 2 1/2″x 2 1/2″ and 1″ deep. The lid sides were scored just under (1/16″) an inch to make the lid just ever so slightly larger than the box itself.

Once the box and lid were assembled, I attached the large detailed butterlfy to the front of the box.

Then I cut lots and lots of Berry Burst bokeh small detailed butterflies. These were attached to the top of the lid using Multipurpose Glue and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I added lots of the Iridescent Facted Gems to the centre of each butterfly.

I can imagine popping a beautiful white silk scarf in this gift box.

What would you pop inside?

Tomorrow I have an Easel Fun Fold card to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.
