Good Things Come In Small Packages!


Here is an adorable little box that is so easy to make, yet looks like it took a lot of time! I used a 6 3/4" square of Blush Blossom card stock, and scored it on all 4 sides at 2 1/4". This will give you nine 2 1/4" squares. In the 4 corner squares, you score diagonally both ways, then trim off the outside triangles, so the corners are flat rather than pointed. The next step is to fold those corners outward, and that's how you get the outside triangles that are tied together with ribbon. Before you add the ribbon, stamp the 4 flat sides. I used the BoHo Backgrounds stamp, with Groovy Guava ink. Then punch 1/8" holes in the folded triangles, string your ribbon thru and tie a knot. For the accent on the front, I stamped the circle image from BoHo Backgrounds on Whisper White card stock with Groovy Guava, then punched it out with the Scallop Circle Punch. Stamp it again on Groovy Guava card stock and punch with the 1 3/8" circle punch. I used the One of a Kind set with the BoHo Blossoms Punch to create the top flower, then added a Fire Circle Rhinestone to finish it off. Add your gift to the box, and voila! You're done!

I am heading out tomorrow for the Stampin' Up! cruise to Bermuda - woo hoo!!! So I won't be posting again until I return. I hope to come back with lots of inspiration for many projects! I think my husband and I will consider this our 25th Wedding Anniversary trip, and how nice that Stampin' Up! is footing the bill! See you soon!
