hi everyone it's hii from Flutterby H.W
0:03
wordpress.com back again here with
0:05
another frero Friday project and this
0:07
time it's my version of the envelope
0:10
punchboard Diamond gift box which I've
0:12
seen round about lots of times but I've
0:14
always felt it's a little bit awkward to
0:17
get things in and out of so what I've
0:19
done is I've done my version so that you
0:21
can open it on the top there with a just
0:24
a a simple hinge lid and of course being
0:27
Friday it fits for forever you might
0:31
yeah I don't think You' quite get a
0:32
fifth one in there um or lindel or
0:34
raphaela or any other chocolates that
0:36
you or a nice little gift maybe a scarf
0:38
might just about fit in there that's a
0:40
silk one as I say there you go four
0:42
Ferrero fit in there nicely and then
0:46
that just ties with a bit of ribbon and
0:48
I am using some of the beautiful new
0:51
falling in love uh designer series paper
0:54
which um is a mixture of so very vanilla
0:56
and Sahara Sand and um coordinates with
1:00
the lovely soft Sky which I've got here
1:02
it also coordinates with Blushing Bride
1:05
so what you need um to um make the
1:09
project today is two pieces of 5x5 card
1:13
stock I've then cut a further piece
1:17
using the largest of the stitched um
1:22
framelets uh are which where you've got
1:25
circles over obviously if you haven't
1:26
got the stitched ones then you could
1:28
just cut yourself um a square as well
1:30
but you would I do find that although
1:33
normally I just cut squares if you're
1:34
going to make apertures you I find
1:36
framelits are inv valuable so use the
1:39
largest one for um for for for that and
1:42
you'll need the next size down as well
1:43
in a moment and then just cut the pieces
1:46
of of very vanilla and some more of the
1:48
DSP so to make the box then um you'll
1:51
need your envelope punch board and
1:53
you'll also need your trimmer as well um
1:56
and it's very simple so it's 5 in x 5 5
2:00
in so it's a square so you could make
2:02
this using um I would actually go for 7
2:05
by 7 cm just to make it easier to get
2:08
the Middle Point um and then I'm going
2:10
to punch and score at 2 and a half or if
2:12
I was doing it in centimeters I would
2:14
punch and score at 3.5 CM so um sorry
2:20
I'd make it I'd punch and score at 7 cm
2:22
so I'd make it 14 cm so I'm doing it in
2:25
inches 5 by five 2 and 1 half by um
2:29
punch and then score and then you're
2:31
going to repeat that on all four sides
2:33
so just line up and score on each one uh
2:37
and obviously you can either Follow The
2:38
Line Round hopefully you can see that
2:40
but when you're doing a square
2:43
um obviously you you you can just line
2:46
it up on uh on the four sides so do the
2:49
same on your second
2:58
piece
3:03
okay and then you can pop your envelope
3:04
punch board away for the moment till you
3:08
make your next one and next you're going
3:10
to need your um trimmer um I will work
3:15
out the measurements totally in
3:16
centimeters for you um because I'll
3:19
double check the measurements here but
3:20
if you're going to work in inches you're
3:22
going to score on all four sides on one
3:25
piece at 38 of an inch so you'll see
3:28
that's just coming
3:30
to the edge of of that
3:33
punch like
3:35
so so you do that on one piece and on
3:39
the other piece now that you've got your
3:41
diagonals you're actually going to
3:45
trim those pieces
3:48
off now you could leave them on um and
3:52
then join the tabs together um but I
3:55
find that when you do that it's makes it
3:57
quite bulky and can make it a little bit
3:59
awkward um to do so I found that this
4:02
method worked best for
4:05
me so having trimmed those you've now
4:09
got two pieces of card stock one with
4:12
tabs on one without so if you take your
4:15
bone folder and just
4:18
reinforce the score lines on all of
4:28
those
4:32
that includes these side ones as well
4:34
I'm going to do a little bit of trimming
4:36
in a moment just to neaten up those
4:37
corners and make it easy for us to
4:46
fold okay so on each corner just take
4:49
your scissors and cut diagonally across
4:53
on each of the four
4:58
corners okay
5:01
like
5:02
so so this is going to be the base of
5:05
our box as you can see here okay and the
5:09
and the top is going to is the one
5:10
that's going to be trimmed so what
5:12
you're going to do is you're going to
5:15
die cut using the smaller of the square
5:19
so just pop it in the center there and
5:21
pop it through your uh Big Shot um as
5:24
said mine is a is a larger one so it is
5:26
off to one side here so so apologies for
5:30
the
5:31
rattling while I do
5:34
this but all you need to do is just
5:36
literally line that up and being a
5:38
square it is nice and straightforward to
5:46
do and keep your D cut out of the middle
5:51
because that's going to be used to line
5:53
your lid you'll see here
5:57
okay so that's your um now you're going
6:00
to be your lid use the larger one to die
6:04
cut here and you just need to score down
6:08
the edge there to make the flap and I
6:10
literally just scored at half an
6:14
inch that's to make the
6:17
hinge
6:19
okay and as
6:21
always creasing the
6:24
direction of your uh score line first
6:27
before bringing it back on itself
6:30
okay so those are the pieces that you
6:32
should have now in order to make the
6:36
um
6:37
um lose my words in order to make the
6:40
slot for the ribbon I'm just using a
6:42
standard craft knife and um all I'm
6:46
doing is just using my grid paper here
6:49
uh just to line it up and just
6:51
cut just
6:55
about a slot and it's going to be
6:58
covered up by your card so don't don't
7:01
worry too much if it's not quite
7:02
straight um and if you want to you can
7:05
come in from the reverse and just make
7:08
this a little bit bigger as well so
7:10
that's the slot you're going to make on
7:11
your lid and then you're
7:14
also going to make one in the front of
7:18
this triangular panel here so again I'm
7:21
just going to line that
7:23
up so it's I can see roughly where the
7:26
middle is I'm using this line
7:28
here
7:30
and again just cut a slit in there like
7:34
so then I'm going to use um just a strip
7:38
of ribbon and I'm actually going to use
7:40
some of the um the red tape which um
7:43
unfortunately stamping up doesn't do
7:45
anymore um but it is um readily
7:48
available from from your s of craft
7:55
supplies so just take a um take your
7:58
card and on the reverse you do this
8:01
before you make the Box up just pop a
8:05
strip of tape down below and do the
8:10
same on the
8:21
lid to the
8:24
[Music]
8:28
center okay now I have misplaced my
8:33
ribbon so in which case we use some of
8:39
the one with the silver in so this isn't
8:42
this is another ribbon that uh stampin
8:44
Up are doing at the moment you just need
8:46
around about 6 in two pieces about 6 in
8:49
long you will trim it down I always
8:51
think with ribbon it's far better to
8:53
have that bit more than you need and
8:56
then be able to trim it away then um be
8:59
trying to fiddle around with when when
9:02
you haven't got enough what I've done
9:04
with that ribbon it was here a minute
9:06
ago I know it was so all you're going to
9:08
do is literally just pop poke that
9:11
through that slot
9:14
there so I usually find pop the blade
9:17
through to open open the slot up and
9:19
then you should just be able to pop as
9:21
you can see that through and pull it
9:24
through there so we do the same on
9:27
here po the blade
9:30
through
9:32
wiggle
9:37
and feed
9:42
the it will go
9:45
through if needs be just use the point
9:47
there point of your craft knife just to
9:49
poke that through as well and then once
9:52
you've pot it
9:55
through just lay your Ribbon down
10:00
down and if you got a little bit of
10:02
excess just trim that away using your
10:05
Ribbon scissors it's a really good idea
10:07
to keep a separate pair of scissors just
10:09
for cutting ribbon cutting card does
10:10
blunt them over time and so it's really
10:14
good to keep keep something um just for
10:16
doing that so once you've done the lid
10:19
all what I'm going to suggest is that
10:20
you then um ader the center panel that
10:24
you cut out of your
10:26
um out of the center of of the top just
10:30
with some
10:38
fuse and pop that in like
10:43
so that just neatens that off and then
10:46
on the front I've got a layer of
10:48
designer series paper and this is the
10:51
new uh
10:52
DSP and this falling in um falling in
10:55
love is absolutely beautiful it's uh got
10:58
really really pretty pink and Sahara
11:00
Sand colors in it um and it it really is
11:03
a lovely um got some lovely design so on
11:06
the one side you've kind of got the um
11:08
photo you know photograph um effect and
11:11
on the reverse you've then got a printed
11:13
pattern as
11:16
well and then to go on the front there
11:19
I've cut so this
11:21
square is uh of the DSP for the top is
11:26
um 2 and a/4 by 2 and a/4 and then this
11:29
is 1 and 3/4 x 1 and 3/4 which I've used
11:32
some um very vanilla
11:35
for and the reason I've gone for that is
11:37
because it's just that um it's those are
11:39
the colors that are in the background
11:41
and it just means it it works a little
11:43
bit better um in terms of the uh
11:46
contrast that you get so to stamp our
11:49
sentiment I've got this little square
11:51
here and I've got um this stamp set
11:53
which is called sweet sentiment and so
11:56
each of these matches with one of these
11:58
um sweets in the new spring catalog and
12:02
this one is lovely the best things in
12:03
light life are sweet and there is a
12:06
sentiment that goes with it that says
12:08
and so are
12:10
you and then what I've done is I've just
12:14
stamped and punched a papon PO porri
12:16
butterfly on the other one I Ed the
12:17
blossom Builder
12:19
punch but I've just put
12:22
in this butterfly instead just to pick
12:25
up the butterfly that we've got on
12:30
the designer series paper and I've left
12:32
a slightly wider border so you can
12:34
actually see the DSP on the lid there
12:38
and while that glue is just setting I'm
12:40
going to put the DSP on the panels here
12:44
while it's still flat so what you need
12:46
is a piece of um DSP for the side which
12:50
is 2 and 3/4 by 2 and
12:54
3/4 and as I've shown you before once
12:57
you've cut that if you lay it and hold
13:00
it with the points lined up in your
13:03
track without moving it as I've just
13:08
have cut in half diagonally line up the
13:12
point
13:13
again and do the same
13:18
again then you'll have four triangles
13:21
ready to go on whatever it is that
13:23
you're
13:25
decorating and then all you need to do
13:27
is just pop a bit of um tape on the back
13:30
of
13:32
those I've got my fuse to hand here
13:35
which I'm managing to stick
13:38
everywhere and this is much much easier
13:41
to do while the box is still um unmade
13:46
so it's not impossible so if you do
13:48
accidentally you forget and you put put
13:53
your put your um do make your box up and
13:57
then you think ah I meant to decorate it
13:58
it that it really doesn't matter and of
14:00
course you could just stamp on the side
14:02
if you didn't have any um designer
14:05
series paper or you hadn't got a pattern
14:07
that you really liked you could you know
14:09
you could always just stamp on these as
14:12
well you make your own card stop but
14:14
don't do what I nearly did there and put
14:16
glue on the wrong side so that then
14:20
covers up that slot with the ribbon as
14:23
you can see
14:26
okay so now we've got two pieces one of
14:28
which is
14:30
decorated and we can just now that glue
14:33
should be set by now so we're just going
14:34
to
14:38
pop our panel on the front
14:43
there and then to put the box together
14:47
on the on the lid here I'm going to use
14:49
some very fine um tape I say um it's one
14:53
of the few occasions when I will use a
14:55
red tape but to make the Box up you can
14:58
actually use the stamping up tear and
14:59
tape and that's really good for um this
15:02
sort of project because it means that
15:04
you're not battling with glue while
15:06
you're trying to put sides
15:09
together so having taken our tape off
15:12
all you need to do is
15:14
just line that
15:18
up in Center that we go and you can
15:22
see
15:25
y so on here if we get our tear and
15:31
tape and just pop a small piece on each
15:35
of the
15:44
sides don't stick it to your finger as I
15:47
have just
15:49
done because otherwise you'll end up
15:51
with no tape on your card
15:55
stock I was going to I was filming in
15:58
the daylight night earlier but then I I
16:01
I was half three qus of the way through
16:04
two well one project and the doorbell
16:05
went for a delivery I was waiting for
16:08
and then a bit later on I was 34s
16:10
through another one and guess what the
16:12
doorbell went for my for another for the
16:15
postman and then uh just as I was going
16:18
to film another project my battery died
16:21
on my camera because i' left it running
16:23
when I got interrupted so not the
16:26
greatest day uh but still
16:29
that's why the light is not perhaps as
16:30
good as it might be so take some tape
16:33
off just a couple of those sides and um
16:36
then what you're going to do is line
16:40
up on here now what I found is the best
16:44
way is to start
16:46
it on one side so it's fairly
16:49
Square then just work your way
16:53
around on each of these four
16:57
corners the the first one if you can get
16:59
that nice and square it will really
17:03
help it won't help at all if you glue it
17:05
in the wrong
17:14
place okay so here we go craftting on
17:18
the go never mind fortunately I haven't
17:20
stck it down that's a good as I said
17:22
good thing about Tean tape is it is a
17:24
little bit more
17:27
forgiving
17:29
so try again right let's replace that
17:32
piece of
17:35
tape right and what you're actually
17:38
doing is you're fitting it in like so
17:42
okay so when you line it up you're
17:44
lining the middle of
17:46
this with the middle here okay so you
17:49
have a piece like so that makes five
17:52
easier right then you come around and
17:54
fold this piece in then just continue
17:57
around
17:59
lining up each of those Corners once
18:02
you've got the first one just give it a
18:04
squeeze then the next one
18:07
squeeze and keep coming round and then
18:10
as you get further round you can then
18:12
take the tape
18:25
off so and because we're getting towards
18:28
the and not you're going to take those
18:29
last few pieces
18:35
off because you don't want to be
18:37
fiddling on that very last one where
18:38
it's all stuck
18:44
in okay so the last
18:47
three and you're going to tuck that
18:50
in like
18:53
so the last two I find pop
18:57
in
19:00
and then from the
19:03
inside squeeze
19:07
together so there you go one
19:11
box with a lid that you can pop in for
19:16
Ferrero rochet and you use your envelope
19:19
punchboard to make a diamond shaped box
19:22
but with a
19:23
top closure and to get your bow to sit
19:27
straight what I do is I tie it and then
19:30
just pull together before I tie a
19:34
bow to finish thanks for watching don't
19:38
forget to shop online in my store and
19:41
and it's celebration so you get a free
19:43
gift for every £45 from the celebration
19:46
catalog come back again soon bye for now
