Rectangular Lidded Box Tutorial with Roses using Stampin’ Up! Spiral Flower Die

Rectangular Lidded Box Tutorial with Roses using Stampin’ Up! Spiral Flower Die

I don’t think I’ve ever made a rectangular box with a separate lid. Please feel free to correct me if I’m wrong (there is every good chance of this, my memory is not as good as it should be…), but it was certainly a challenge to make this box using only standard A4 cardstock, and then being able to make it in the 8.5 x 11″ that the overseas among us use…

But I’m really happy with it, and I think that little cluster of Roses on the top really makes the difference.

I know that most are fans of Crumb Cake as their most versatile Neutral colour, but for me, Sahara Sand wins hands down every time. CC has that slight yellow undertone, whereas SS is a pure neutral.

But anyway, I love it, and I love how gorgeous it is with Raspberry Ripple, but equally stunning with Perfect Plum!
