A Simple But Beautiful Gift Box – #1 Stampin’ Up! UK Demonstrator Pootles
Sometimes, we just need simple but pretty. I absolutely love to make more elaborate-looking boxes and bags, but sometimes I just need simple and stylish.
And having spent the last couple of weeks working almost exclusively with the new catalogue and new papers, I just fancied a play with the annual catalogue stuffs.
So we have cardstock, background papers and then the utterly gorgeous Country Bouquet and matching punch!
See, simple but pretty!
And when you have a black base to your box, you can add in any pairing of colours. I’ve gone with pink and then purple, but you could do reds or blues, greens or yellows? Whatever colours to suit your recipient!
So, who’s with me on having projects that are sometimes just simple and pretty?
S x
- Cardstock BASE – 8 x 8″ (20 x 20cm)
- Score at 2″ (5cm) on all sides
- Cardstock LID – 6 x 6″ (15 x 15cm)
- Score at adjusted (per video!) 1″ (2.5cm) on each side
- Paper – 3-3/4 x 3-3/4″ (9 x 9cm)
I hope you enjoyed this project, I absolutely adore what I do and spend many hours working on designs, new projects, new ideas and more.
I love to spoil all the people who shop with me, so every month I post out a handmade card, an exclusive newsletter and a product gift too.
