THURSDAY IS ALL ABOUT THE 3D PROJECT

For today’s 3D project I wanted to create a triangular gift box.

Each of the sides measures 3 3/4″x 3 3/4″. The base and lid triangles are 3 1/4″ with half inch flaps on each side.

A small note about two-tone card – when it is cut you can see the white core.

I cut three of the outline arched shaped from another of the DSP designs.

Using a paper piercing tool, I made two small holes to thread some white baker’s twine through so that I could secure the lid.

I cut a slightly smaller triangle for the lid and stamped the greeting and decoration.

The 2025-2027 In Colour Flat Pearls were popped on top of the small sunburst.

I’m not sure what I will pop inside the box yet but it will be tasty!

Tomorrow I have three more cards to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping and scrapbooking.

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.
