Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator Pootles – Slender Box Tutorial for 4×4 Cards using Bohemian DSP
When I make and design boxes, there’s often a reason behind them. Sometimes to put treats inside, other times to house a particular lip or skincare product. Perhaps a few candles etc. But when I made a 4×4″ card recently, a few people asked me if I could make a box for that size of card.
So I did!
I didn’t actually get around to making a card to go inside it, but you get the point of the box….!
The actual finished dimensions are 4.5 x 4.5 x 0.5″ (11.5 x 11.5 x 1.5cm) so more than a card could slip in there…
And I decided to keep it simple, with a wide strip of DSP and those lovely layers of the matching cardstock. Pretty and elegant is the thought that springs to my mind!
I hope you like the project and video!

Dear Sam,

I just want to say thank you for sharing your beautiful projects with us. I’m always excited and full of anticipation when I open your blog in the evening :O)
So thanks again and stay that inspiring!
I love this little box. I’m thinking they would be great for a few cards with envelopes made with the new envelope paper and made to be winter theme thank you notes. A great gift to hand someone at holiday time, maybe with a chocolate attached.
Gorgeous!!! I love this little box, so simple, yet so pretty! Love the colours, and DSP – I will have to make some of these. Thanks Sam for another great idea! x
Lovely box as always ! Thank you for sharing all these with us x
There are such pretty little boxes! Thanks as always Sam!
