#1 Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator Pootles – How To Make An Embossed Masculine Milk Carton Gift Box
So you all know how much I’ve adored using this World of Good suite and I decided today that I would make a simply decorated box for my husband.
This isn’t to say he doesn’t appreciate stamping and embellishments, but I wanted to use texture on this box to decorate it, and I love how it has come out.
A few people have asked about using our lovely thick embossing folders inside various machines, so I’ve got a tip for you in today’s video too. Ideal because I sent out embossing folders as thank you gifts last month!!!
So have a great day everyone, and if you’ve got someone in your life who deserves a textured milk carton, make one too!

It’s a great box and I love that it’s more masculine. The instructions you wrote down are a little different than what you say in the video. The score lines on the short side say 1 inch, but it should be 2 inches as you do in the video. That’s something you might want to change. Thanks for all you do and share with all of us!
What was the name of the embossing folder?
