3D THURSDAY HAS ARRIVED

Today I have a gift box to share with you.

The box measures 5 1/2″x 3 1/2″ because I wanted to be able to add half a 6″x 4″ Joyful Days Memories & More Card on each of the sides.

The box was made using Old Olive card.

I decorated the sides and lid with some of Memories & More cards.

I took a length of Real Red Shiny Ribbon and tied a sweet little bow before securing it around the lid.

One of the tags from the A Touch of Gold Mix & Match Specialty Ephemera Pack had the stars design, from the Metallic Texture Rub-Ons (165270 $24AU), transferred onto it.

Then I added the circular ‘joy’ bauble, from the Greetings for You Mix & Match Ephemera Pack, to the tag and threaded Old Olive and Red/White twines through the holes and tied them off. I used Stampin’ Dimensionals to attach them to the front of the box.

I am always pleased when I finish a 3D project.

Tomorrow I have a funfold card to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

IT IS THURSDAY & TIME FOR A 3D PROJECT

Last week, during the first Virtual Album Retreat that Stampin’ Up! hosted we created an explosion box for one of the page layouts.

I decided to create a Christmas Explosion 3D Card using the same measurements we used for the album page.

The explosion box was made using Old Olive card and used the tree design paper from the Weekend Adventures 12″x 12″ Designer Series Paper.

Then I added panels of Basic White card and a variety of designs from the DSP pack.

The card had several pockets added to allow for giftcards and photos.

I used one of the dies from the Party Banners Dies to cut some gold reinforcement circles to finish the 1/8″ circle I punched using one of the Hole Punch Assortment pack.

Then I used some retired ribbon to create a wrap and bow to hold the box closed.

I added a shaker card in the centre of the explosion box using Loose Gold Sequins.

For the bauble die cut and the greeting I used the Bauble Blooms Bundle. To finish the bauble I added a die cut gold hangtag.

Tomorrow I have a fun fold card to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

3D THURSDAY HAS ROLLED AROUND AGAIN!

For today’s projects I used some of the card bases from the kit.

I made two different sized gift boxes.

I made the larger gift box using two of the cardbases. The cards were scored and trimmed before being glued together to make the box.

The second gift box, perfect to pop a chocolate into, was made with just one card.

I used the Unbounded Love and Stylish Shapes Dies to cut the backgrounds for the heat embossed greetings.

The gold shapes and greetings were added to the top of boxes using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The weight of the cards is perfect for making sturdy gift boxes.

Tomorrow i have a fun fold card to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.
