This is what you should start with. 7 3/4" X 3 1/2" sheet of paper. Score @ 1/2", 3 5/8", 4 1/8" 7 1/4" and then 1/2" along the long side on the bottom. Punch one 1/2 circle out of one side using 13/8" circle punch.
Then you will use your paper snips and just snip where i did. This will allow you to fold the box up neatly.
It works best to embellish as you wish at this point. I chose to just do the front and get my holes punched for the handles of my purse. I used choc chip grosgrain ribbon and brads to adhear. For the pink scallop i first punched a hole w/ the 1 3/8" circle punch in melon mambo then took the scallop cirlce punch and went right over top of my last punch. Gives you a neat trim!
you are ready to put together. Lay the inside of the box to face you. then line only the two parts you see in red w/ your sticky strip. I practiced folding it all up b4 i tore the covering off so you know what has to go where! ;) I did the bottom one last. Gives a nice clean finish and everything else is tucked inside.
These are the cute little 3X3's i made to stick inside. All using the stamp set Birthday Bliss and the DSP from the SAB FREE set!
Finish it off w/ a cute little tag from Vintage Labels and sponged the edges and popped up on dimensionals.

ok my computer has been giving me fits and not allowing me to upload...so sorry for the extended wait time here! I made this for someone the other day who bought a gift certificate from me to give as a gift! If you are looking for that hard to buy person....keep this in mind... I will make it cute for you to deliver for no extra charge! $25 minimum.
impression folder used w/ the big shot and then turned the card the 'wrong' way... so the raised part is on the inside of the card for a different look...
same here, impression folder turned the 'wrong' way...
and this would be turned the 'right' way... with the raised flowers to the outside or front of the card. Birthday bliss was a stamp set that i earned for FREE w/ sale a bration... only a few weeks left!
Boy, made this card a while ago and now that i'm sharing i couldn't remember where that stem came from! I think that means i have to many stamps???.... naw... not possible! ;)
This card was made by Dana! Good job girl! these colors look so rich when all put together i think!
Simple and straight to the point.....
simple but using two different tools: Horizontal slot punch and corner rounder punch....see how much using that Big Shot along w/ the impression folder, adds to the card?? What a difference huh? ;)
Still simple but packs a bit more punch! Here just adding the scallop trim border punch and some delicious old olive striped ribbon.... this is my favorite one of the three and they take the same amount of time plus or minus a minute! ;) See how easy it is to make a cute card even cuter! bling is always the answer or in this case...it's ribobn.
simple card that comes together quickly is always a treat. Here, using only 2 inks really speeds up your process! Adding the scallop edge punch on the black border give a bit of dimension along w/ the certainly celery ribbon and popping one circle up on a dimensional.
this is what we call quilt card. acutally goes together quite quick with a square punch! using the slick little FREE pad of paper that comes w/ numerous prints, it all coordinates as well! so the card is 4 1/4" X 5 1/2". Melon mambo piece is 4"X5 1/4". and then all the little squares are punched out with the 1 1/4" punch.
It makes for a very sharp ensamble when you give your envelope a little extra pizzaz. Here i just took a bit of matching choc chip dsp and adhered to the flap of the envelope! how sharp is that?
