Project Recipe

Cut 3 card inserts measuring 2" X 4" (score 1/2" from each end of the longer sides to make the flaps to secure to the inside sides of the planter box.
Using the Oh So Eclectic Stamp Set. Stamp 9 flowers using whisper White Cardstock, Blackberry Bliss ink, Coastal Cabana ink, Dafodil Delight ink, Pumpkin Pie Ink, and Melon Mambo ink. After stamping the flowers cut them out using your big shot and the Eclectic Layers Thinlit Dies.
Next you will stamp and die cut 9 sets of leaves using the same stamps and dies. I used Granny Apple Green ink to stamp the leaves.
Next you will need to make the trellis. The Trellis is made using the Eclectic Layers Thinlits and the wood grain 6X6 paper. you will need to cut out the Trellis using the background die with all the diamonds. You will need to position and die cut it 2 times before cutting it to size. of 4 1/2 X 3 inches.
Next you will need to cut the posts to encompass the trellis. These posts are cut in the wood grain paper and measure 1 X 4 1/2 inches. You will need to score these down the middle at 1/2 inch and then adhere them to the sides of the trellis.
Next you will adhere the trellis to your box along the back panel. I recommend using tear tape or liquid glue.
Next you will cut window sheets to adhere your flowers to. The window sheets are cut 1 inch by 4 inches. I recommend using Tear tape or glue dots to adhere.
Adhere the flowers to the dividers of your box creating an arrangement of flowers.
Using the Botanical Butterfly paper and Butterfly duet punch cut out various butterflies and attach them to window sheet strips and add to your box
Now it is time to decorate the outside of the box. I cut 10 inches of burlap ribbon and attached to the box with adhesive. I then cut 25 inches of Fresh Fig Ruffled Ribbon and placed it centered on the burlap ribbon. I created a bow to the left hand side of the box.
Using the Beautiful Bouquet Stamp set, I stamped the words on a piece of wood grain papers. I then punched out the sentiment with the Story Label Punch. I then punched out a second using black berry bliss card stock. I cut it in half and layered it behind the sentiment piece to create a border. I used dimensionals to pop up the sentiment on the front of the box.
