3D THURSDAY – TIME TO MAKE A GIFT BOX

I really enjoy making 3D projects, especially gift boxes.

Today’s gift box is designed to hold 6 notecards and envelopes. It is also a’flat fold’ gift box. Let me show you what I mean.

This gift box holds the 6 notecards and envelopes that I shared last Saturday and Sunday.

The box has been made using the same Designer Series Paper and coordinating cardstock. It is a ‘flat fold’ box because no adhesive has been used to create a permanent 3D box structure. Once the Evening Evergreen OPen Weave Ribbon bow is untied, the box opens out completely.

There is enough space to position the notecards and envelopes, as you can see. The ‘side flaps’ of the front panel tuck in behind the cards. You could adhere these into position to make a more premanent construction.

For this project, I only added DSP panels to the central panels of the box. As you can see, I have ensured that the continuity of the design wraps continuously through the box panels.

Before I adhered the front DSP piece, I secured a length of Evening Evergreen Open Weave Ribbon so that it could be tied in a bow the hold the front flap down.

3D projects don’t always need ahuge number of products to createthe finished result.

Tomorrow is Fun Fold Friday and I’m not sure what I will create yet. Thank goodness for 24 hours!

UNtil tomorrow, happy stamping.

3D THURSDAY & IT’S TIME FOR A GIFTBOX

You have probably figured out that I am featuring one product suite or bundle each week, beginning on Saturday.

This week is all about the FREE Sale-a-bration Friendly Hello Bundle. This a product bundle you can choose with a minimum $180 AUD order.

I had a Basil, Lime and Mandarin scented cake of soap that needed a much nicer giftbox than the packaging it came in.

I cut piece of Pool Party cardstock to 7″x 5-1/2″ for the base and scored it at 1-1/2″ on all four sides.

The lid was cut to 6″x 4-1/2″ and scored at slightly less than 1″ on all sides. This ensured the lid was a touch larger than the base and would fit easily over the base. It also meant that part of the blue base would be seen and it would easier to lift the lid away.

The Designer Series Paper was cut from a piece measuring 5-5/8″x 4-1/8″. When I cut the DSP, as shown below, I was able to ensure the continuity of the paper’s design on the top and the four sides.

I adhered the DSP panels to the lid before assembling it.

To coordinate with the giftbox, I wrapped and secured a strip of the same DSP around the soap.

Then I took a length of Pool Party Sheer Ribbon and attached it to the bottom of the card base.

I stamped the birthday greeting onto a piece of cardstock and used the Lovely Labels Punch to decorate the end of the greeting tag. The Label Me Fancy Punch gave me the punched hole I needed to thread the ribbon ends through. The next step was to tie a bow.

The Garden Gems are a gorgeous way to finish the giftbox.

I really have fun when I make giftboxes and packaging. It’s the challenge of creating a 3D item from 2D paper – measuring, cutting and assembling.

Tomorrow is Fun Fold Friday. Until then, happy stamping.

A GOLDEN GIFT BOX

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.
