Hello there! The theme on the Crafty Meraki blog this week is Gift Giving, so I thought it would be fun to create a simple gift box and embellish it with flowers.
First, I chose a lovely striped paper from the Color Cascade Pattern Paper pad. I trimmed the paper to 6" x 6" and scored it on all sides at 1". On two of the sides, I cut the 1" score line up to where the two score lines bisected to create tabs. I folded each side along the score lines and secured the tabs with strong, double-sided adhesive. For the bottom of my gift box, I cut white cardstock to 5 7/8" x 5 7/8" and repeated the steps for scoring, cutting and adhering.
To embellish the top of my gift box, I created some flowers with the Artisan Flora Wreath Builder Dies. I diecut the elements from colored cardstock and blended each piece with coordinating ink to create some dimension. I assembled the blooms with a combination of liquid adhesive and thin 3D foam squares.
Using a retired Spellbinders die from my stash, I cut a pink scalloped circle. I attached the circle to the top of my box with foam tape and arranged my floral elements on top. The sentiment is from the Handmade Love Hot Foil Plate. I foiled the plate with gold foil and diecut the sentiments with the coordinating die. I popped up my sentiment with foam squares and finished with some gems from my stash.
This gift box was super easy to create and lots of fun embellishing! Thanks for stopping by!

My wife and I want to show profound gratitude and appreciation, ever since the pandemic things have always been very difficult for me and my family, I lost my job during the Covid19 stay at home pandemic and it was very difficult for me to secure a new job that was how life became terrible for me, But thank God for bringing this man into my life, Mr Bernie Doran. I read so many good reviews online on how he has been helping a lot of people both small business owners to gain financial income so I contacted him on WhatsApp and that was the day my life change began, I started with the lowest investment plan which was $1,500 and within a week I earned a profit of $18,500 on his trade management system, since then I have been making huge profits with the help of MR BERNIE DORAN, Now I can do basically anything I want for myself and my family, I just can’t thank you enough sir, may God continue to reward you. I highly recommend to everyone that needs financial aid, contact him on:

Using this medium, I would like to express my gratitude to SPYLORD BTC RECOVERY. They attempted to use their hacking expertise to help my husband and I retrieve our $500,000 worth of stolen cryptocurrency. We thought we would never get our money back from those phoney internet investment websites, so we were skeptical at first. but it worked and we got our money back. I’m so glad I found them early. They retrieved about 98% of the total amount we lost.
