Pink & Brown

I saw this cute box idea on a blog

I follow and went to SplitcoastStampers.com

and got the tutorial, but can't for the life

of me remember who I got the idea from :(

If it was YOU - thanks bunches!!!

It's another easy-peasy fun to do project.

 

Again, I made it simple as it will

just be my "prototype" for a

possible future class project.

I plan to do more boxes and those

I will make a little more elaborate.

 

I always try to make something a little

more "plain" the first time out

of the box (no pun intended LOL)

so that I have it for a sample to work from.

 

Here's my prototype.

 

 

The box was created using pink and brown CS from SU.

I attached the pink and brown decorative panel

together and then used a Sizzix (SU) embossing folder

to give it texture.

The greeting is also from SU from the Oval All Stamp Set

and punched with the SU Label punch.

The brown velvet brad was from Creative Imaginations.

 

Here's a close-up of the embellies.

 

The inside of the box has space for candy!  Yippee...

The tutorial shows 5 Hersey Kisses,

but, unfortunately, I ate them all before I made the box.

The greetings are more SU images

and as you can see, there's a slot for a gift card.

The decorative "slot" w as using the

SU Labels punch.

I also opted to use a corner rounder on the pizza box

type cover and used a Velcro dot to hold the

box together.  You can see that it "pouches the box out"

and for future boxes, I would use a ribbon tied around

the box as a closure instead.

I'd also go a little fancier with my inside too

depending on what the occasion was.

 

Hope you enjoyed my "prototype" for this fun project.
