Marcelyn Churchill is my friend, Stamping Joy team member, fellow BSFer (Bible Study Fellowship) and prolific crafter. She doesn’t have a blog, so I share some of her creations on most Mondays.
Did you see Marcelyn did her very first Facebook Live on my Stamping Mom Facebook page last Wednesday? She did a great job showing how to make these fun boxes. See the video of her Facebook Live here.
This beautiful new Designer Series Paper is called Perennial Essence. It reminds me of a Monet painting.
Marcelyn added the adorable SAB frogs to this box.

Welcome to the Pals’ May Blog Hop. We’re so glad you’re here because we made some great projects with “More Than One Score.” You may be starting the hop here or coming from a previous Pal’s blog. Either way, you’ve come to the right place. You’ll find the full line-up below to help you move, or “hop” along from Pal to Pal.
I love making 3-D projects, so the hardest thing was deciding which project to share with you today!
Here’s a close up of the box. This box is the correct size to gift Tic Tac Mints, Tic Tac Gum or any kind of small gift or treat.

Measurements

Cut 3/4″ x 6-1/2″ Mango Melody Cardstock for belly band
Scraps of Poppy Parade, Mango Melody and Whisper White Cardstock
Instructions
Score the short side of the Lemon Lime Twist Cardstock at 3/4″ and 3-3/4″.
Score the long side of the Lemon Lime Twist Cardstock at 1″, 1-3/4″, 3-1/2″ and 4-1/4″. Burnish all the score lines.
Cut away the top two squares on the right and left. See picture below where it says “Remove”.
Cut on score line between B, D, and F, and A,C. and E. Leave the E and F tabs whole, but cut slivers out of sides of A, B, C and D. This makes the box go together easier.
Corner Round the top two corners with the Detailed Trio Punch.
Put adhesive on tabs E and F. Put adhesive on back side of tabs C and D.
Attach adhesive side of Tab C to front side of Tab A. Attach adhesive side of Tab D to front side of Tab B.
Attach adhesive side of Tab E to back side of Tab A. Attach adhesive side of Tab F to back side of Tab B.
Attach glue dot or velcro dot to flap and fold down. If you would like to tuck the flap instead, cut off 1/2″ of the top and corner round the top edges again. For this box I did cut the 1/2″ off after doing all the cutting and scoring.
Cut the layering circles including the smallest White Stitched Circle for the Bird.
Stamp the Bird from the Hey Love stamp set with Memento ink and color with Stampin’ Blends.
Wrap the belly band around the box and secure with adhesive.
Assemble the card as shown in the picture. Email me with questions at Beth@StampingMom.com
The bird image is from the Hey Love stamp set retiring on June 3, 2019. The Lemon Lime Twist Cardstock is retiring and only available as of now, in the In Color 12″ x 12″ Cardstock. The Dot to Dot Textured Embossing Folder has a very fun look and you need to get it before it retires at the end of the month.
I couldn’t resist making a coordinating card using the same supplies.
More inspiration awaits! Use the Blog Hop Line-up below to visit the rest of this month’s Design Team. My fellow Pals are excited to show you what they’ve created! Don’t forget to show us some love by commenting on our creations. Mark your calendars for Wednesday, June 12, 2019 when our Hoppin’ Pals share their “Anything with Wings” projects. Don’t miss the fun!
