Since I’ve been wearing the Room Mom hat for over 5 years, we are always looking for new ways to show our appreciation! This year, we are recycling some of the girls’ art boxes, and putting the card inside the box, and the gift cards right on top!
Here’s the supplies we used:
Therm O Web supplies:
Glitter Corners – Silver
Sticky Lines
Foam Squares
Glitter Dust – Pink
Mini Sticky Tape Runner
ICraft Adhesive sheets
ICraft Adhesive Tape – 1/4 inch
Zots – 3D
Other Supplies:
Heart Diecut – Sizzix
Distress Star Dust Dry Fine Glitter – Ranger
Patterned paper – Crate Paper
Doily – Joanns
Lace, Pearl Trim – Scrapbook Island
Flower – Prima
To decorate the outside and top of the box, cut patterned paper to size of box. Adhere with Sticky Lines around perimeter of the box. Create paper bow, adhere with Mini Sticky Tape Runner and foam squares. To create the glittered heart: Adhere ICraft Adhesive sheet to cardboard. Run through die cut machine [this is a Sizzix 4 heart die cut]. Peel off adhesive layer, sprinkle loose glitter and tap off. Adhere heart to paper bow with 3D Zots. Adhere bling with 1/2 3D zot.
For the top of the box, spray doily with a light coat of Glitter Dust in pink. I then layered and adhered the following with the Mini Sticky Strip runner: Doily to paper, heart to doily, and gift card holder to inside of heart.
To create gift card holder, start with a 6 in by 6 in piece of paper.
Fold in half on the diagonal.
Score at the 2 7/8 inch mark, from both sides.
Open up the paper, and fold new score marks over to meet in the middle.
Fold in half, from the outside, so you create the pocket for the gift card.
Slide gift card into the Glitter Corners, adhere to patterned paper. And voila!
