Cute as a Bug Sending My Love 4" x 3" x 2" Lidded Gift Box - Ink Stamp Share January 2026 Showcase Blog Hop

 Good Evening Everyone

Happy Saturday, I hope you are all having a fabulous Weekend.

Today I'm taking part in the Ink Stamp Share Showcase Blog Hop. We don't have a set theme, just an opportunity to share a project we have made.

I decided to create a very simple lidded box - made specifically to fit the floral image from the Cute as a Bug DSP and it measures 4" x 3" x 2", so a really great size to gift all sorts of goodies in. 

Measurements

Cloud Cover Card Stock

1pc - 7" x 8"

1pc - scrap

Old Olive Card Stock

1pc - 6" x 5"

Cute as a Bug DSP

1pc - 3 7/8" x 2 7/8"

------------------------------

Take the Cloud Cover card stock and in your Simply Scored and score on all four side at 2". Fold and burnish all the score lines and then cut up all the squares and notch to create tabs.

Repeat the above process with the Old Olive Card stock, but score at 1" on all four sides.

Pop the DSP panel into the centre of the Old Olive Card stock.

Add Tear & Tape to the tabs you created - fold up the Tab on the Cloud Cover to create the base, and the tabs on the Old Olive to create the lid. 

Finally, stamp the sentiment in Old Olive ink on a scrap of Cloud Cover card stock, then using the Three Banner Punch, cut it out. Pop some dimensionals onto the back and position on the box lid.

That is the box made - told you it was simple!! I hope you have enjoyed my project today, I LOVED creating, please take a few minutes to continue through the hop to see what everyone is sharing today.
