This Heartfelt Creations Wednesday brings you a fun Com forting Scripture project, full of comforting and inspiring words from the bible.
First we take a look on the outside and zoom in on those adorable carnations.
They are first embossed in gold embossing powder then shaped with the new flower molds.
Below you see all the layering using the off cuts from the lace doily die
Below you get to see all the tags in the box. this makes a wonderful gift for someone feeling poorly and down or a just because.
Og course the tags can be more decorated but you then need to take into account that only 3 or four will fit in the container. I have made eight tags for this box. A message could be added to the back of each tag to make it evan more personal. One could also add glitter to pop it. There are so many things you could to the details to make it your own. Remember to have fun while doing it.

Instructions:
The finished size of this project is, 4.33in x 6.29in (11cm
x 16cm)
Taking the McDonalds hot chip box, make a pattern by tracing
around the form onto the photocopy paper with the pencil. Cutting into the box
folds as you go to be able to trace the details of the folds and curves. Make
also a pattern for the front matting for use later. Make a pattern for the
tags; this is the size of the back of the box made a little smaller but longer.
Taking the Kraft cardstock, trace the pattern onto this then cut it out. Trace
all the curved folds onto the Kraft card stock using the smallest balling tool
from the flower shaping tool kit. Using the score-pal for any straight folds
needed. Gently bring the curved folds into the cardstock. Adhere the box
together by looking to the second box to see the placement of adhering. Apply
peeled paint distress ink to all the folds and edges of the Kraft card-stock
box.
This box has 8 tags.
They are made to different lengths so when finished the lace is seen on each
tag. Once the tags are cut from Kraft card stock, find the patterned paper
wanted for the tag fronts. Cut these the same size as the tags. Using the
paper-distressing toll, distress all the paper edges. Taking the lace die from
the Festive Holiday Doily die and the white card stock. (1x doily for two tags)
The doily is cut in half in the length, saving ant off cut swirls for use in
decorating the front of the box. Both pieces are used. Ink the doily pieces
with the broken china and peeled paint ink. Adhere the doily pieces to the top
of the tag. Adhere the distressed design paper tags to the Kraft tags. To make
the scripture sentiments, use each one of the scripture texts found in the sets
Words of encouragement and Words of comfort onto white card-stock. Find an oval
that will fit and die cut the stamped image. For each oval sentiment, cut 4x
extra from the white card stock to make oval chipboards when the layers are
adhered together. Once the ovals have been adhered together, apply ink to the
edges with peeled paint distress ink. Adhere to each tag, a completed oval
sentiment.
To decorate the box front: Find the design paper with a blue
tint that matches the project cut the front mating with the aid of the matting
pattern already made. Distress the edges with the paper distressing-tool.
Adhere to the front of the box with wet glue or double-sided tape. Adhere the
ribbon around the top of the box. Make a full bow and adhere to the left of the
box on the ribbon line. Taking the scripture based stamp with “ I am complete
in him” stamp this with the coffee archival ink. Find the circle that fits the
sentiment and die cut. Die cut 4x extra and adhere these circles together to
form chipboard. Apply peeled paint distress ink to the edges of the circle once
the adhesive is dry. Adhere to the box front center. Taking the carnation, leaf
stamp, and matching dies make 3x carnations by stamping with the archival
coffee ink then die cutting. Each carnation has 5x petal layers, 7x leaves.
Bring shape to the carnations using the mold as seen in the video above in the
instructions. Stamp three carnation buds from the Fanciful Carnations stamp and
matching die sets. Bring color to the leaves and buds using the Peeled paint
ink for the leaves and Victorian velvet ink for the carnations.
Taking the saved off cuts from the lace doilies, trim away
any unwanted details to make a swirl. Arrange and adhere the carnations, leaves
and swirls as a cluster, between the circle and the right foot of the box
Well thats a long post and lots of photos so you should be able to understand how it is all put together.
