I used the pretty yellow tissue paper that came in the Paper Pumpkin kit to line the inside of the box.


I created box #1 with the August 2022 Paper Pumpkin Sweet Sunflower card kit.


I used the front of this card from the kit for the box. Then you have a matching gift set. Card and box.


This photo shows the card with the back of the box (opened).


I colored the vellum die cut “mesh” with the Stampin Up Blackberry Bliss Stampin’ Blends Markers.


I didn’t want to cover any of the beautiful print on the box so I cut a piece of the printed card for the handle to match the top of the box.

I used 3/8″ Clear Velcro Dots but for this box I recommend using a larger dot. I have a link to the 3/4″ clear velcro below. It needs a little more strength because the printed card base is thicker than designer paper I used on the other boxes and wants to pop. So the stronger velcro dot will hold it.
  


This cards were made per the Paper Pumpkin kit instructions. I have a video above that shows how to make these as well.

    I’ve been out of the loop for a few weeks as my eldest daughter & my granddaughter (17yrs) were burned out of their apartment in Quincy, MA and lost most everything! Thankfully they got out safely and we feel so blessed for that! Hard to think about anything else right now!

    • Oh no, Cheryl! Thank goodness they are all safe. This is the time to be with family. Sending prayers your way.
