Cute Candy Box!!

This cute little box was one we did at workshop sometime ago.  I like making 3-D items.  This one will hold the Hershey Nuggets (about 8).  I made this one with Whisper White and Pool Party Polka Dot paper from the Subtles Designer Series Paper Stack.  It is very easy to score and put together.  Please note the side of the box in second picture where I used a circle punch and punched half a circle.  This makes it easier to open the box. This will make a very cute gift for a birthday, thinking of you, I'm sorry, just because...just a few ideas to use it for.  I think I got the box measurements from Chic n Scratch but decorated it the way I wanted with what I had.  Please check out this site Chic n Scratch and go to her 3D items on top of page. 
Supplies: Pool Party from Subtles DSP Paper Stack 130135, Whisper White100730, dimensionals 104430, snail adhesive 104332.
Cardstock:  Your choice of color
Bottom - White Cardstock cut at 7 ½ X 4 ¾, Score at 1 ½ on all sides
Top – Whatever DSP you want to use or you could do a solid color and cut the DSP into strips. Top - Cut cardstock of choice at 7 ½ X 4 ¾ and score 1 7/16 on all sides. Measurements for DSP if you decide to make it solid and decorate with DSP.
4 ½ x 1 13/16
4 ½ x 1 ¼ ( cut 2 pcs)
1 ¼ x 1 ¾ (cut 2 pcs)

For Bow punch two ovals 1 ¾ x 7/8 and a strip for the center of the bow.  Cut two strips, one at 4" X 1" and  one at 3 3/4" X 3/4" flag the ends of both strips and glue them in the center only with snail adhesive if you want to curl the ends. Use glue dots for end of ovals and wrap small piece around the middle of ovals. The strips and bow are adhered to box with dimensionals.  Don't forget to leave a comment, I really enjoy them and will answer them back.  

Happy Stamping,
