Here is my project for today:

I was going for a manly box that would be good for a Valentine gift.

I also made it with the scallop edges, SO Cute!

Cut paper 9x9 and score at 3” all around


I cut up two opposing sides and metered each as well as cut a bit off each end (ONLYon the corners, so they fit inside your box nicely).


Then adhere corners inside your box being sure to line them up at the corners.

The scallop top is put together the same way with the difference of using the Scallop border Thin Cut to cut the edges before adhering together.

Place the Cardstock through the middle of the thin cut with the scallops on top (you only want to cut the scallops out, not the entire border), placing them at the edge of each side to cut.


It looks a little funky when it comes out....one tip: be sure to cut the end off before adhering so it doesn’t show through your scallops (this May be easier to do before you cut the scallops, or as you adhere each corner so you know which side to cut).

I wanted to keep this simple for a guy, so I added the Whisper extra thick twine along with a tiny Thin Cut Basic Tag stamped in Ruby with the CO from the ‘I made this’ stamp set.

I’m sure the new Light Grey Ribbon would be perfect also!

I hope you enjoyed this project.

Here is my project for today:

I used an acetate box from our ribbon packs, took off the label and wrapped Black Cardstock around the sides (I had to put two pieces together, which is why I made the White Daisy pieces smaller for each panel).

Then I put a piece of black and adhered the white panel to the top.

I stamped the White Daisy panels with B1572 Banner Love. This stamp set is made to specifically meant to stamp a background on the Tag Thin Cuts...SO much Fun!!

I popped the Heart on top with regular Foam Dots (gotta Love those!).

I used Dove Dark chocolate to fill the box.

I was going for a manly type box. I think he’ll like it!

I really like these background stamps, they are so fun and easy to use on bags, boxes, tags, letters, scrapbooking pieces and cards! I hope you like them too and check out our Idea Books to see all the great backgrounds you can make.
