Hello and welcome. If you’re new to my blog, I am so pleased that you have popped by. If you’ve popped by before, I appreciate that you have returned.

I am slowly catching up on my crafting and posts – and, hope to be ‘on time’ very soon (I try to schedule my posts at 9am each day).

Over the next few days I plan to share projects using the You’re a Peach Suite Collection.

For this project, I was inspired by my daughters’ love of Peach Iced Tea. So, I went looking for something that I could make a gift box for. Thank goodness for T2 products – I found their Packs a Peach tea bags. Now I must admit I thought the packaging wasn’t awful, but I also knew that I could create something just a little more special. The teabags are in super-cute triangular bags and there are 10 bags in the packet.

The box they come in is larger than the box I made.

I chose three core colours, that coordinate with the You’re a Peach Designer Series Paper, for this gift box – Calypus Coral, Pale Papaya and Pear Pizzazz. Then I added some Basic White and White Vellum. The gift box base measured 9-3/8″x 8-3/4″ and was scored in at 3″ along all four sides. The lid measured 8-3/8″x 7-3/4″ and was scored at 2-5/16″ along all four sides – this ensures the lid is just a little larger than the base so that it fits over the base easily.

The DSP for the lid was cut 2-1/4″ high for all four panels and then 3-1/4″ for the front and back and 2-5/8″ for each of the sides. The DSP for the base was cut 2-7/8″ high for all four panels and then 3-1/4″ for the front and back and 2-5/8″ for each of the sides.

I used one of the Scalloped Contour Dies to cut Pear Pizzazz and White Vellum layers for the box top. The die was too wide for the top but I was able to reposition the die to make the finished layer narrower. The Pear Pizzazz layer was then stamped with the leaves and stems image from the Sweet As A Peach Stamp Set. A few drops of Multipurpose Glue were placed on this layer before the vellum was attached. The glue was hidden as soon as the peaches and flowers were adhered onto the vellum, using Stampin’ Dimensionals. The flowers and peaches were stamped using both Calypso Coral (stamped off) and Pale Papaya. I cut five double leaves in Pear Pizzazz and attached them with Mini Glue Dots.

The sentiments were stamped in Pear Pizzazz and Calypso Coral. The ‘Thanks for being as’ was cut using a die from from the Peach Dies and the ‘sweet as a peach’ was cut using one of the Scalloped Contours Dies. The final touches included adding Clear Wink of Stella onto the peaches and flowers, and then adding some of the Pale Papaya 2021-2023 In Colour Jewels.

These are some of the products I used for this gift box. Which ones do you have on your wishlist?

Who would you give this peach tea gift box to?

Happy stamping.
