Hopefully from the picture you can see I had to to scor at the 4 inch marks and then at a diagonal on the corners so the 12 x 12 will fold into a box shape. The top was cut as a 6 1/8 square and scored at one inch on all four sides to make the lid slightly larger than the box. I used Scor Tape to assemble this project.
TOP: Stamp sets that were used for the top of the box are from JustRite: You Inspire Me stamped and edged with Memento Rich Cocoa and cut with Spellbinder circles. I stamped JustRite's Happy Everything Tag kit "Happy Valentines Day" and cut it with the tag from the set. I created a cream border on the edge of the top with the Martha Stewart punch.
INSIDE: I used Bazzill flowers which were colored using my Copic Air Brush System , layered and attached with a brad by Bo Bunny. A tag " Be Mine" was stamped using the JustRite Myriad Pro Font set. I added little pockets on each of the sides that hold little cards that can be used for a variety of gift ideas. I used the Martha Steward punch on the pockets too.
Have to say this was a fun project and I hope you enjoy.
POW! What an explosion of color and sentiment. I love it! Very nice job!
