Christmas Gift Box time!

by Karen Jiles | 9 years ago

Karen here, sharing some little Christmas Gift Boxes that I created with the Frosted Spruce Stack. This stack is so much fun to create with. It includes so many various patterns that coordinate beautifully together. I decided to use the stack on a couple of mailer boxes. The patterns and sentiments were perfect for a quick box layout. I loved the end result. Take a peek at the tutorial below.

Supplies:

DCWV

• Frosted Spruce
• Mailer Boxes

Gesso

Foam Brush

Ribbon

Charm

Xyron Adhesive

Hot Glue

Trimmer

Scissors

Tutorial:

Step 1: Apply Gesso to mailer box using a foam brush. Note: The lighter the application of Gesso the more distressed the box will appear. Set aside to dry.

Step 2: Trim coordinating patterned paper from the Frosted Spruce stack to the size of mailer box and apply adhesive using the New Creative Station.

Step 3: Adhere to box.

Step 4: Add ribbon to box cover and secure inside box cover.

Step 5: Cut focal image from patterned paper and adhere ribbon to corner of focal image. Run through the New Creative Station and adhere to box.

Step 6: Add bow and charm using hot glue.  Continue embellishing as desired.
