I decided that it was time to make a 3D project so today I have a gift box to share with you.
The Gold and Rose Gold Metallic 6″x 6″ Specialty Paper, in the Annual Catalogue, is stunning. I have teamed it with some of the Eden’s Garden Collection products.
The gift box measures 4″x 4″ and is 1″ deep.
I made the box first and then created the belly band by cutting a 2″ wide strip of Evening Evergreen card. Then I adhered a 1-1/2″ strip of paper from the Ever Eden Specialty Designer Series Paper. The band was wrapped around the box and I gently pinched it along each edge. I was then able to burnish that pinched crease to create four sharp corners for the belly band.
I created the bow by looping each of the four lengths of Open Weave Ribbon and held each loop in plce with a Mini Glue Dot (there are two Soft Succulent and two Evening Evergreen ribbons). The loops were then overlapped and tied tightly in the centre with a length of gold Simply Elegant Trim. Then I cut some lengths of the same ribbons in half lengthwise and tied them around the bow. Finally I unravelled the gold trim to create the individual filaments.
The sentiment, from the Eden’s Garden Stamp Set, was stamped onto a small piece of Basic White card stock using the Evening Evergreen ink. The leaves were stamped in Soft Succulent. Then I used one of the Tailor Made Tags Dies to cut the three tags that are attached to the top of the box. To keep the tags displayed this way I used Mini Glue Dots.
The last step was to add some Garden Gems to the tags. I love the marquise shaped gems!
Now I just need to find something gorgeous to pop inside the gift box. What would you put in the gift box?
Until next time, happy stamping and gift box making.
If you live in Australia, you can order any of the products I used to make this card by going to my online store. Just click on any of the images below.
Because some of the products I have used to make this card are not yet available to customers, I am not able to show them at this time. As soon as product images go live, I will create this section.
