This is the candle box I made to match yesterday's card.
I used the same dsp teamed up with crumb cake card.
The little poem inside is off google and is perfect for
giving to someone who has just lost a family member.
How I made the Candle Box
1. Cut piece of crumb cake card 9 1/4" x 4 " and score at 4", turn and score at 4"
Fold to form a book shape.
2. Cut DSP 3 6/8" square (3 pieces) 1 1/8" x 3 6/8" (2 pieces)
3. Cut a 6 1/4" square of crumb cake.
Score at 1/2", 1 1/2". Turn and repeat on all sides.
Score and cut waste away. Using circle die 2 7/8" in centre of score lines.
This fits the older Ikea round candle holder. Adjust to suit your own candle.
3. Add double sided tape as in pic below and add your ribbon.
Seal up final edge using wet glue.
4. Finish forming the box shape.
5. Cut a piece of crumb cake 8cm square to seal bottom of your box.
6. Cut two pieces of ribbon 10" long. Add double sided tape to front
of your book shape and stick the ribbon. Glue your dsp to cover the front and ribbon.
Add double sided tape to inside left for other ribbon, and cover with dsp.
7. Adhere your spines and insides with dsp.
8. Glue your candle box in place on right hand side of book.
9. Decorate the front by punching two pretty labels in cake crumb.
10. Type out your sentiment (or stamp it) in matching hex colours
and punch using the pretty label punch.
11. Add sentiment to one label using dimensionals and glue second one so it shows at bottom.
12. Stamp 3 flowers in lovely lipstick, and 6 leaves in soft sea foam and cut out.
Add to front of your box.
