We have another sunny day on the cards today, but we still have a lot to do around the house... but hoping to get a few hours in the garden this afternoon.
My project for today is a this cute gift both which I made to pretty up the packaging for a necklace gift, I've stamped the sentiment for Mother's Day, but you could switch it up for any occasion required.
Measurements:-
Fresh Fig Cardstock
1pc - 7 1/2" x 7 1/2"
1pc - 2 3/4" x 5 3/4"
Whisper White Cardstock
1pc - 5 3/4" x 2 3/4"
Floral Romance Speciality DSP - Printed Vellum
1pc - 5 3/4" x 2 3/4"
Place your piece of Fresh Fig Cardstock in the Simply Scored and score on 1 side at 1/2", 1" & 7", then rotate 90 degrees and score at 1/2", 3 1/2", 4" & 7".
Snip away at the cardstock to create the shape below:-
Layer up the printed vellum onto to whisper white stock - putting it over a light background really does help the paper seem brighter and bolder. Adhesive can show through vellum so I carefully added snail amounts of snail behind the flower clusters and purple and green areas. Add this to the carstock as shown here:-
Using the 3/4" circle punch, add a small thumb notch to the panelled piece as below:-
Remove the release paper for the tab and fold round to create the box, fold in the sides, back and then adhere the front flap down to make the base.
Stamp the sentiment in Mossy Meadow ink and layer onto a piece of fresh fig then add to the box.
Now take the remaining piece of cardstock and round all four corner. Then at the top, punch in two holes and snip diagonally front he outside to the centres like so :-
This Creates the perfect panel to hold the necklace in place whilst it is inside the box.
