Happy Wednesday friends! Over the next several weeks we will be sharing our blog on Wednesday's with some of our partners to showcase some of their new products and inspiration from their design teams! Doodlebug has been a partner to SCT for a very long time and anyone who knows me knows that I DO NOT share my Doodlebug :) I love their beautiful bright colours that make me happy! Their Lovebirds collection is no exception...read on!
"Doodlebug Design has a wonderful design team that is filling their blog with daily inspiration. One team member, Tamara Tripodi from http://happylifecraftywife.com created this yummy lollipop treat box. To create this darling Valentine lollipop box you'll need a digital die cutting machine. If you do not have a digital die cutter you can also get a similar look with a box from a craftstore and covering it in Doodlebug paper.
SUPPLIES: Doodlebug Lovebirds Collection, Doodlebug Washi Tape, Doodlebug Twine, Adhesive, Digital Die Cutting Machine, SVG Cuts die cutting kits (Mother's Garden and Scalloped Shapes), Acetate Sheet, Tiny Aqua Buttons
Directions to Create the Box:
Step 1) In your digital cutting software add a window to the SVG Cuts 'Mother's Garden' glove box with the scalloped oval shape from SVG Cuts 'Scalloped Shapes'.
Step 2). Assemble the box and adhere the scalloped border to the window.
Step 3). Cut a small piece of acetate to place inside the lid behind the window.
You'll then cut the box bottom and assemble. Fill the box with crinkle paper stuffing.
Embellish the lid with Doodlebug Lovebirds stickers and Doodle-Pops.
To make the lollipops extra special, wrap a strip of Doodlebug washi tape around the stick. Punch a small hole in a few Doodlebug 'Love Notes' and tie them onto each lollipop with Doodlebug twine and a small aqua blue button.
This sweet little gift box will surely brighten someones day! With all the wonderful embellishments that Doodlebug offers, you make make tons of boxes with different themes for various holidays or birthdays!
