I am in box making mode today and love how this beauty turned out. Not a new idea but I gave it my best shot and added my own colour choices and a beautiful gold embossed lid.
The Blackberry bliss card and Petal pink co-ordinate beautifuly and the deep richness of the Blackberry Bliss sets off the gold heat embossing perfectly giving a luxury elegant look. The stamp is named Lovely Lattice and is FREE !! you can choose it when you spend £45 or more during our famous Sale-a-bration.
The lid flips closed nicely with no further need for a closure. The finished size is approx 4 x 41/4" x 1 1/2" giving ample room for a variety of uses.
TIP OF THE DAY !!! never heat emboss directly onto a box structure as the heat can warp the card and make your box wonky ... trust me because I tried it! Hence my heat embossed image is done on a seperate piece and added after using dimentionals.
The detail on the stamp realy is stunning and I am so pleased I didnt over look this unassuming stamp it shall stay firmly in my hoard vault waaaaaaay after Sale-a-bration is over this year.
I do have a quick ...ish Youtube tutorial for the box so you can create one too. So grab a brew get comfy and enjoy the video. Measurements and products used are listed below and available in my online shop ... click the photos below to browse the goodies.
happy Stamping xxx Amanda
