I hope you like this sweet little box? I have used the tag topper to shape the top and of course this made it easy to add the diagonals to shape the top to hold the little pointy lip balm.
Of course the punch is actually part of a fab bundle with a pretty stamp set, so I have added the link to that too
I made the box originally in card and added the panels of Designer Series Paper (DSP) after, however the folded layers of card made it more difficult to feed into the punch, so in my video sample I made it completely out of DSP and that certainly made it very easy to put into the punch.
The DSP in the Bird Ballad suite is lovely – soft pinks and blues and pretty bird and feather images and of course they co-ordinate perfectly with the special Paper Pumpkin kit that is available only until stocks last. If you haven’t ordered it already, I would urge you to do so before it is gone forever. The stamp set alone is worth the money! Gorgeous font for the sentiments too.
The box is a simple one – but I sized this and the insert with the lip balm shape in mind, and checked that I could get two from a sheet of UK A4 cardstock
