Blog Hop Graphic

Welcome to our Greek Isles Achievers Blog hop this month! We are a group of Stampin' Up!® Demonstrators from around the world that have earned the incredible Stampin' Up!® incentive trip. The list of all the participants in this hop is at the bottom of this post – so much inspiration awaits you!!

Stampin' Up! Perfect Parcel Box Die - 1 (2)

I'm excited to share three different versions of this lovely little box using the Perfect Parcel Dies.  There is a video tutorial below with tips on the easy way to assemble this box.

Love that the box is self closing – it cuts slots on the ends so you can tuck in the top, no need for ribbon or adhesive to close the box!

This version is made with the Pressed Petals Specialty Designer Series Paper and the Pressed Petals Specialty Washi Tape. For a video tutorial on how to make the flower, check out this blog post with a card featuring the washi tape flower.  The sentiment is part of the Parcels & Petals stamp set which is offered as a bundle with the Perfect Parcel Dies.

The Pressed Petals Specialty Paper is very lightweight, so I added a piece of Mossy Meadow cardstock, 2 1/8" x 3 1/2" in the bottom of the box to add to the stability.

These boxes were made with the beautiful Magnolia Lane Paper and decorated with a flower made with the Magnolia Memories Dies.

I really enjoy decorating the inside bottom of the box – it's an unexpected little surprise for the recipient!

For this bright and sassy version I went sparkly and shiny with the products from the Noble Peacock Suite! The Noble Peacock Specialty Designer Series Paper is cardstock weight – so no need for a cardstock bottom liner. In the video I share how I made the layer for the label – both cut with the same die.

Which version do you like the best? Now it's time to hop along and visit the next blog!

Happy Paper Crafting!
