Stampin' Up! - Swaps for Birmingham!
Hello, as promised, here are the details of the swaps I made for Onstage 2017 held in Birmingham.
Wrap
5 cm x 17.7 cm
score at 3cm, 5.8 cm, 11.8 cm and 14.6 cm
Punch each end with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch.
Fold on each score line.
Box
For some reason I find it easier to use the EPB in inches!
Cardstock 5 1/2" x 5 1/2"
Line up on the EPB - punch and score at 2" and 3 1/2" on all four sides
This is what you will end up with.
You need to make little cuts, cutting up to the first score line on two opposite sides.
Crease and score all score lines.
Using Tombow (it really is the best glue ever), apply a small amount on each of the tabs
.
Fold in the tab and line up so that the box is square and press each corner into place until the glue grabs.
Top Tip
If you apply too much glue to the tabs it will take a lot longer to secure - ask me how I know this!
Here is the box glued together.
I popped one of these little Brownies in as a treat for fellow Demos; On Stage is great fun but it is a long, long day!
All you need to do now is to place the wrap around the box and fasten together with some coordinating ribbon. Take care not to pull the ribbon too tightly as the paper will tear ...
I made lots of these little boxes in the 2017 - 2019 In Colours.
Don't they look pretty - which one do you like best? (I like them all and can't possibly choose)! Details of the products I used can be found below.
Thanks to every one who swapped with me, lots of great inspiration and ideas.
I will share some photos of the swaps I received later this week, come back soon to see what I received - lots of inspiration.
Happy crafting!
