Skinny Box

Way, way, way back in January, I made a little post-it note holder using the gorgeous Gingham Garden papers.  So I decided I would make a little box, well a skinny box, using the same colour scheme!

The box uses only a small piece of paper or cardstock, and can be made to look as pretty or as dressed up as you like.  I decided to cut my box from Melon Mambo CS and decorate!

And of course, I used Gingham Garden DSP.  It's so pretty!!  I love it!  Just happens to coordinate with the Melon Mambo CS as well.  Bonus :)

I used the Gingham Garden DSP to make a belly band and then started the decorations.  I made little rolled roses from Melon Mambo & Daffodil Delight CS.  I laid these onto a white leaf die-cut which I had cut with my Cricut and a free SVG file I had.

Put it all together and you have a pretty box.  I filled the box with Lindt balls which are pretty yummy, and perfect size for this box!

 

I really do love these flowers!

To make this box, head on over to this Youtube tutorial.  It shows you better than I could try to explain!
