Colour Your Season Blog Hop

• Colouring Tools – Watercolor Pencils, Watercolor Pencils Assortment 2, Calypso Coral Dark Stampin’ Blends Marker, Dark Mint Macaron Stampin’ Blends Marker and Dark Highland Heather Stampin’ Blends Marker

• Tools – 1/8″ Circle Handheld Punch, Paper Snips Scissors, Big Shot and Big Shot Magnetic Platform
• Adhesive – Fine-Tip Glue Pen, Glue Dots, Stampin’ Dimensionals and Liquid Multipurpose Glue

Die cut the smallest of the frames, stamp your sentiment and flowers in Stazon, then colour with Watercolor Pencils. Flowers coloured in Gorgeous Grape and the Leaves in Granny Apple Green and Old Olive. Then punch a hole in one end and thread Baker’s Twine through the hole tying a knot in the ends. Slip the Baker’s Twine in under the lid before adhering the lid in place.

Stamp on Window Sheet with Stazon. When the ink is dry, flip the piece over and colour using Stampin’ Blends. Use a Glue Dot to secure the Stampin’ Blends side to the Sparkle Glimmer Paper. Then use your Paper Snips to cut the Window Sheet and Sparkle Glimmer Paper out together.

Die cut some of the leaf type elements using the Framelits. Cut some in the Glimmer paper and some in another coloured card. Adhere these elements to the base of the flower using Glue Dots, Finally, add Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the flower element ready to adhere to the lid.

Colour Your Season Blog Hop Basics:

You can see a video on how to make this box at Qbees Quest as it’s Brenda Quintana’s original. I have made mine taller, so I will give you my measurements.

• Die cut 2 of the medium frames from the Framelit Dies

Base of the Box

• Cut to 23.5 cm x 8.2 cm or 9 3/8″ x 3 1/4″
• On the long side score at 5.6 cm, 11.3 cm, 16.9 cm and 22.5 cm or 2 1/4″, 4 1/2″, 6 3/4″ and 9″
• On the 8.2 cm or 3 1/4″ side score at 0.9 cm or 3/8″
• Cut “V’s” in between all the tabs, then fold along the score lines
• Adhere the tab to the other end of the box with Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Top of the Box

• Cut to 22.2 cm x 8.2 cm or 8 7/8″ x 3 1/4″
• On the long side score at 5.3 cm, 10.6 cm, 15.9 cm and 21.3 cm or 2 1/”, 4 1/4″, 6 3/8″ and 8 1/2″
• On the 8.2 cm or 3 1/4″ side score at 0.9 cm or 3/8″
• Cut “V’s” in between all the tabs
• Fold along all the score lines and adhere the ends together with Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Putting The Box Together

• Place the base so it is about 0.3 cm or 1/8″ away from the point on the long sides of the frame. The box should form a diamond shape. Adhere with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
• Place the lid inside the base with the tabs up. Add adhesive and then add the frame
• Decorate as desired.

That’s it for Colour Your Season Blog Hop. Thank you for stopping by today and I hope you come back again soon to see what else I have to share.
