3D Playful Pets for the October Pals Blog Hop

Oct 14, 2020 | Pals Blog Hop | 24 comments

Hello, welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop! This month our Design Team’s theme is “Tag, You’re It” – tags or 3D projects to get you inspired for the upcoming gift season. We hope you enjoy and will be inspired by them! Don’t forget to leave comments! We love hearing from you. At the end of my post, you will find the full line-up to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.

I created a set of five Playful Pets cards, with envelopes, and a gift box to hold them.  I’ve already mailed this boxed set to an animal rescue in North Dakota to use as part of their fundraising silent auction. 

Here’s the gift box, which is made from DSP:

I used the Playful Alphabet die set with two layers of the adhesive sheets to create the eclipse part of the card.

Here are the five cards stored inside the box:

The Gift Box

I’ve got the whole set-up to start filming videos and I really need to do that ASAP. For this blog, however, I took pictures of measurements and each step for creating the box. I figured a picture is worth a 1,000 words, so enough of them would be much better than trying to explain in words.

I used a piece of Crumb Cake and Pool Party for this sample box so the measurements, lines, etc. would be easier to see.

Here’s the gift box, step-by-step:

BOX TOP

For some strange and unknown reason, I didn’t take a picture after I put the tear and tape strips on the box. However, the bottom of the box is put together the same way as the top. The difference is that the bottom has an angled side, aAs you can see below.

BOTTOM OF THE BOX

I hope these pictures are truly worth a thousand words. Try it! If you are following the blog hop, you can trim, score, use adhesive, and fold. Simple as that. Truly.
