We all loved the rag purses created with the Clear Square Scallop Bigz Die. Pull those dies back out so that we can create another scallop box just like the ones we created yesterday.
Need a refresher on how to create these boxes? Check out the instructions HERE. Just like the previous boxes, they were scored and cut between the second and third scallop. The only difference is that I created an insert to keep the ribbon and the tags separated. The insert is a piece of Candy Cane Christmas Designer Series Paper cut to 2-3/8" x 3-7/8". Score this paper at 3/4", 1-1/2", and 2 1/4" and fold to create the divided sections. I also had to adjust the Window Sheet cover for this larger box. I cut my Window Sheet to 2-3/8" x 3-7/8". I then scored 3/4" from each of the ends.
I stamped the front image of the tag first, punched it out and THEN stamped the sentiments on the back so that everything is lined up. Notice that the sentiment is created by simply inking up ONLY the "To:-From:" portion of one of the stamps. The easiest way to stamp the front image of the tags is to ink up the image with your Baja Breeze ink pad. Using a Kleenex (or your finger) wipe off "dec. 25" and ink up just that portion with your marker.
How fun! I can't wait to see what you all create!
