Friday Die Day

Hello friends

 

This week's Friday Die Day is featuring Flower Top Box

and I think it is so cute!

A design by Marisa Job who has brought us the Box of Treats,

Surprise Me Box and more.

 

There are three dies in the set and the measurements are approximately:

 

Overlays: 1.00 x 0.85 in (2 pcs)
Box Half: 7.00 x 4.30 in

This is how they look cut/embossed.

 

 

To create the box you need to die cut the box half twice.

I didn't actually emboss, I found that just with the cut it was enough

to see the fold lines.

 

Fold along each fold line including the little tabs.

You will see the tabs affix to create the base of the box.

I used liquid glue for that bit of 'wiggle' room.

 

Affix the side tabs too.

Make sure you bend the petals outwards a little.

 

To close the box you can tie with twine or ribbon.

I also used my bone folder to shape the petals a little.

 

After cutting lots of overlays I selected to decorate just one!

My signature mini poinsettia cut in pink and little leaves.

 

Positioned and affixed to the one panel.

The finished box.

 

 

Flower Top Box is available to pre-order and will be in stock next month.

 

Important...chocolate sizing, my estimation is that it could contain

two Ferroro Rocher,three smaller truffles

or quite a lot of Maltesers!

 

Take care friends, let's hope Storm Doris blows herself out

and you are all safe.
