I held the first Upstairs Stampin' Gig last night - what fun! The stamping project was to create these cute little boxes with scallop edges. It was fun to see how each box was different even though we all used the same pattern.
Supplies:
2 sheets of 8-1/2 x 11 card stock (dusty durango, melon mambo, soft suede, rich razzleberry)
1 sheet of 12x12 card stock (whisper white)
Coordinating ink pads and ribbon
Stamp sets: Bella's Bloom and Trendy Trees
Scallop punch
Big Shot and Bigz Scallop Envelop Die
Sticky Strip
How We Did It:
From the 8-1/2 x 11 sheets of card stock, cut 4 "envelopes" using the Bigz Scallop Envelop die. Tape together envelopes with Sticky Strip along the side flaps of each envelope. Then fold bottom flaps in to create a box. Cut a strip from the 12 x 12 card stock to fit around the box. Stamp tree images before applying to the box. Cut coordinating card stock scraps to fit one side of the box, stamp and layer sentiment for the front of the box. Fold scallop flaps out.
For exact measurements, leave a comment and I will email details to you!
I LOVE THEM! When we first used the envelope die, I was disappointed b/c it was so small. I didn't want to make cards that small. But I think now that I'm going to have to have it!
