I thought I would make a matching box to yesterday’s card.

I started with a 5″ x 11″ piece of Acetate.

I scored it at 2″, 5″, 7″ and 10″ with my Scor-It. I prefolded the scores with a bone folder and taped the box shut with Sticky Strip.

For the bottom and top I cut a 5″ x 6″ piece of Chocolate Chip cardstock. I scored it at 1 1/2″ and 3 1/2″ on the 5″ side and at 1 1/2″ and 4 1/2″ on the 6″ side. The edges were punched with the Scallop Edge Punch.

I layered each side with Whisper White cardstock topped with the Ski Slope Designer Paper. Around both the top and bottom lid, Red Taffeta ribbon was tied around.

The Acetate was adhered to the bottom with Sticky Strip. The sentiment from the snowman from Merry & Bright was stamped on Whisper White cardstock in Brown Palette ink, punched out with the small oval punch and adhered to the bottom of the box under the ribbon knot.

For the top tag, I stamped the snowman again in Brown Palette ink on Whisper cardstock and colored it in with Aqua Painter and Baja Breeze, Riding Hood Red and Old Olive Classic ink. It was punched out with the 1 1/4″ circle punch, layered on a 1 3/8″ Chocolate Chip circle on top of a scallop circle that was punched out of the Ski Slope Designer Paper. I tied the tag to the ribbon with silver elastic cord.
