Do you remember my No Adhesive Box and Tutorial? If you liked that box, you'll love the Matchbox Bigz XL Die and the coordinating Matchbox Messages stamp set! Both items will be available April 1 with the Occasions Mini catalog. The Matchbox is a little smaller, but it's the perfect size to hold about 4 Hershey Nuggets.
First, here are the two pieces. They were so easy to run through the Big Shot! And there are 3 tags!
Here's the finished project.
Isn't that cool? One zip through the Big Shot and you have all you need to make these cute little boxes! My box is made with Kiwi Kiss card stock and Good Morning Sunshine DSP for the sleeve. The image is stamped with Chocolate Chip on Summer Sun card stock. Again, this tag was made with the die as well. I used a Stamp-a-ma-Jig to stamp it perfectly in place. A little Striped Kiwi Kiss Ribbon and Linen Thread and my box is done.
Tip: I used my regular sized Crease Pad on the section of the die that makes the sleeve so that my fold lines came out crisp. Stampin' Up! will be offering the XL Crease Pad in the future. When I have that, I would use it on the entire die. The score lines on the box came out fine without the crease pad.
Hope you like my box. You will be able to order both the die and coordinating stamp set on April 1. But don't forget, there are some sets from the Occasions Mini that you can preorder AND earn Sale-a-Bration sets on. Go to my Online Ordering Website 24/7 to do your shopping!
Thanks for the visit!!
