Christmas in July? Why not?
I always have a lot of craft projects to get done for Christmas so July
is the perfect time for me to start!
Today I have created a cute little package containing two packs of Love Hearts.
Yes it is ok to give Love Hearts at any time of year, isn't it?
Not everyone is a fan of chocolate, I know, crazy!
Not everyone is a fan of chocolate, I know, crazy!
I took advantage of the buy 3 get 1 free packs of paper and one of my choices was
this gorgeous 12 x 12" pack of DSP called Under the Mistletoe.
Here is how I made this project!
1. Cut piece of paper 4 1/2" x 4 1/2"
2. Using the envelope punch board line up your paper at the 1" mark, punch and score.
3. Now slide your paper to the 3" mark, punch and score.
4. Turn your paper and line up with the score lines, 2 on each side, punch and score.
5. With the two small points to your left and right, cup up either side to the first fold.
6. Do this on the opposite side too.
7. Add glue to the outside of these 4 flaps and glue your box together.
8. Punch a hole through both of the wide flaps for the lid closure.
9. Now just decorate as you wish!
To cover your Love Hearts cut a piece of the dsp 2 3/4" x 1 3/8"
This box hold 2 packs of mini Love Hearts but I am sure there are little chocolate bars
that would fit nicely.
To make my box I have used:
