Stampin Up Gift box for two votive size candles with insert

Hi folks,

Jacqui back again with another project for you.

Today we're making a milk carton style gift box for two votives, I've tried Yankee votives, and glass ones and they all fit. I've put an insert in to hold them steady so no rolling around inside as I've put a lovely window in it too.

This is the first one I made and I used papers, a bow die and binder clips from my stash

The next one I used my Stampin Up products on

I've used the Springtime foils which are free from Stampin Up with an order of £45 so if you spend £90 you can get 2 free gifts It finishes on 31st March so get your skates on!

I've used the Lovely Words Thinlets to create my window with some Fabulous Foil acetate behind it.

The tag is made using the Scallop Tag Punch,1 3/8 scallop punch and 1 3/4 scallop punch. The sentiment comes from A good day stamp set. Some gold binder clips seal the deal!!

Measurements in Inches

Box 2 pieces of 8 1/4 x 7 1/2

Score LS 2 1/2 and 7 5/8
Score SS 2 2/2 , 5 1/2 and 7

Insert 7 x 71/2
Score LS 1, 3 1/2, 4 1/2 and 7
Score SS 1 and 6

Use a 1 3/4 circle die to create the holes

Mark at 1 1/8 on the 2 side panes score straight down to first score line then score diagonally from there to both corners. This ensures a neat fold.

Stampin Up die cut domed box and Stash one too.

Hi again folks,

Jacqui back with another project for you. Hope you like it!

I found these little Airpure candles in our local Home Bargains for £1 each so I had to buy 3 lol. And they make the perfect project they're so pretty.

There are loads of this type of box on youtube but I think it was Sam from Mixed up craft that got me hooked on them!!! I made this one with Stampin Up products, Very Vanilla Card, Touches of Texture stamps, Gold Foil Card and Oh so eclectic dies.

This pretty one come from my stash I used a 12 12 paper pad by Craft Sensations from the Range and some Melon Mambo card. The hearts are a free set of heart and stamps from Papercraft Inspirations No 176. The acetate is from my stash!

This one started out with Sweet Soiree papers which I had to change (if you watch the youtube video you'll know why!!!) The hearts are the Sweet and Sassy heart framelits. The twine is from the range and the gems from my stash. The substitute paper pad is also from Craft Sensations at the Range.
