I have one more quick box to share with you today. This box is sized to hold a Little Debbie Christmas Tree Brownie but as I found out in the video-BONUS-it will hold a gift card too. If you still need some boxes to gift some gift cards this year. This is your one stop. For my box I'm using the stunning Traditions Of Christmas DSP. This DSP is on the Last Chance List so please grab it now. It is so stunningly beautiful you won't regret it. The gold foiling adds to the floral elegance. So pretty! I made a lidded box, which I don't typically do but I have an easy tip in the video to get the perfect fitting lid for your box.
The base of my box is Bubble Bath. I love using pink for Christmas. Any color of the DSP would work too. Or you could even make the bottom of your box out of DSP too. The base and the lid are double walled, so that means that there's two layers of cardstock/DSP on the sides of the base and lid. Not only does this add to the stability of the entire box but the finished look is clean and very professional looking. The trick to getting perfectly fitted lid is to use a stack of 5-6 post it notes on the left edge of your Simply Scored when scoring. They'll provide a small 'shim' leaving your lid just a hair larger than your base. Make sure to check out the video to see this tip in action. Note: this tip does not work for all lidded boxes.
I used the Jolly Deliver Stamp Set for my greeting, also on the Last Chance List. Any Christmas greeting will work, or if you're making this for another holiday simply switch the greeting and DSP. I embellished the box with the Secret Sea Ribbon, 2025-2027 In Color Pearls and the Loose Gold Sequins. They all work together to make a beautiful box. The box does hold a Little Debbie Christmas Tree Brownie. If you need help finding them in your area, check out the Little Debbie Snack Finder. Lots of other treats will fit in here too, and as I mentioned a gift card too!
