Welcome back to Lost Coast Portal to Creativity where Lost Coast Designs and Carmen's Veranda collide to bring you twice the inspiration and double the fun!
Hi there, Riet here.
Today a tutorial on how to make this gift box.
Its a Karen Burnstein die.
But if you have a score board you kan make a matchbox.
What I used for this box.
Distress oxide:
Wilted Violet
Peacock feathers
Twisted citron
Spiced marmelade
Strip acetate.
A small piece of ribbbon.
A bead or button.
Color pencils or markers.
White gelpen.
Black ink I used versafine.
Color the box with the four colors of distress oxide.
Don't forget to do the inside of the drawer too.
Inside of the drawer.
Make a hole in the front of the drawer.
Pull the ribbon through the button or bead and through the hole.
Glue the ribbon and assemble the drawer.
Now you have a pull knob on the front of the drawer.
Give the gnome and the tulip some accents with a white gellpen.
Take the strip of acetate, 1cm wide and 7cm long.
Make a fold in the acetate strip at 2cm.
Glue the long piece on the back of the gnome.
And the short piece in the drawer.
If you now pull the drawer open, the gnome jumps up and offers you a tulip.
To finish the box, take the smallest stamp from the Pieces of calligraphy and the Versafine.
Stamp lightly here and there, it doesn't have to be a perfect print.
With the Long swirl stamp and the oxides I made some small prints.
I did this with Orange on orange and green on green etc.
Let your ink dry.
Now, isn't this a nice gift box?
You can put candy or chocolates in it.
Or a gift card.
Make sure you put it under the gnome.
Are you also making something with a gnome?
Then join the challenge and maybe you will win those new stamps.
You can join with other brands, as long as there is stamping on your art.
So hope to see you on the challenge.
