Most Thursdays I try to share a 3D project with you.
Today I have a gift box that I made to hold all of this week’s card projects.
These are most of the new products, from the Friends of the Ocean Suite Collection, that I used to make the box.
I always start my gift boxes by taking the measurements of the item or items that I want to pop inside.
This box is designed to hold four cards and coordinating envelopes.
The gift box was made using Lemon Lime Twist card stock.
Then I added a panel of paper, from the Friends of the Ocean Designer Series Paper pack, to the top and sides of the box lid. I always try to cut the DSP carefully to ensure the design of the paper continues ‘seamlessly’ over the lid.
Then I cut two panels of card – one in Basic White and the other in Summer Splash.
I embossed the Basic White and Summer Splash panels, using the Soft Waves 3D Embossing Folder, and layered them before adding them to the top of the box. These panels were positioned at a slight angle.
The greeting was stamped and die cut using on eof the banner dies from the Stylish Shapes Dies pack.
I also cut a second banner, in Summer Splash, and positioned it under the stamped banner with dimensionals.
The lobster was stamped and die cut before adding it to the box lid as well.
Finally, I added some of the Sunny Day Iridescent Dots.
When you take the lid off you get a peek at tomorrow’s card design.
Tomorrow you will get to see more details about this card.
Until then, happy stamping.
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.
