The new gift box die is wonderful! In just a few cuts and fold you have a wonderful little gift box!


here's a close up of the card. I had so much fun coloring this card and I have to say that I LOVE how it turned out!I popped a few flowers up for a 3D effect and heat embossed the word Mom.

Here is the step by step write-up for this project:
Stamp the Sun Kissed Fleur PreCut Set once on orange cardstock. With your embossing tool, emboss all the petals. Form a layered flower using the biggest 4 flowers and leave the remainder smaller 6 smaller flowers to use later.
For the box, die cut 4 times the Gift Ensemble Die for the box. Ink all edges, make all the appropriate folds and form your box. Heat emboss the mother’s day sentiment on the front of the box. Add one larger and two smaller single layer flowers over the preprinted basket paper to give it dimension. Add the large flower to the top of the box using a pop dot.
For the card, fold an 8.5”x11” cardstock in half and cut in half. Trim a piece of pattern paper to 4”x5.25” and stamp the flourish from the smaller Sun Kissed Fleur Swirls Precut Set all over the paper using Forrest Moss distress ink. Machine stitch around the edges after you ink them and adhere over card base. Die cut the edges from the Gift Ensemble Die in black and use and a punched edge under a strip of 1”x4” paper. Add a piece of ribbon over it and adhere over background paper. Stamp the basket and color using Prismacolor Pencils. Heat emboss the word MOM only from the Sentiments For Mom PreCut Set. Mat the colored image, pop dot it and add it to the card. Add the remaining three single layer flowers to the basket and add gala glitz as the centers for all the flowers. Finish by adding a bow to the right side of the image.
