Valentine Trio Gift Set

 

Supplies:

Valentine Chicks
Valentine Chicks CUT IT OUT Dies
Hearty Chicks (sentiment)
Box of Chocolate Chicks (sentiment)
White Card
Patterned Paper
4”(W) x 5”(H) cellophane bags
4” doilies
Pennant Die
Stitched Circle Dies
Lace Border Punch
Lily O’Briens Crispy Hearts chocolates.

How to:

Stamp and colour all 3 Valentine Chicks. I cut all 3 out using a stitched circle die as I hadn’t decided which chick was going to go onto each project.

Stamp the sentiments from Valentines Chicks, Hearty Chicks and Box of Chocolate Chicks, and cut them out using a stitched pennant die. You can also just cut them out using a paper trimmer and fish tail the ends with a scissors.

For the Box

Cut 2 pieces of white card, one measuring 5 1/16” square for the box lid, and one 7” square for the box bottom.

Score the 7” piece of card on all four sides at 1” and 2”


Score the 5 1/16” piece of card on all four sides at 0.5” and 1”


Cut away the outer 3 squares as shown


Make a tab from the remaining square and taper the edges of all the sides.


Repeat these steps for the 5 1/8″ square piece (box lid).

Cut a piece of white card measuring 2 7/8” x 2 7/8” and a piece of patterned paper measuring 2.75” x 2.75”. Adhere them together, and then adhere them to the centre panel of the box lid. Add more paper to decorate, if desired.

Also cut four pieces of patterned paper measuring 2 7/8” x 7/8”. Adhere one to the each of the sides of the box bottom, as shown

Apply double sided tape to the outside of the small tabs, and to the inside of the larger tabs.


Remove the backing and adhere the small tabs to the inside of the box.


Remove the backing from the tape on the larger tabs and fold them down inside the box.


Repeat this process for the box lid.


Cut out the Chick with the chocolate, either with the coordinating Cut It Out Die, or fussy cut with a precision scissors. Pop the chick on the front of the box, towards the top, using 3D foam tape/dots.

Using the sentiment from Box of Chocolates Chicks, roll it though your fingers to curl up the centre. Apply a double layer of foam tape to the centre and some wet glue near both ends. Adhere to the box lid.


Insert a doily into the bottom of the box and add the heart chocolates.

For the Bag:

Fold the 4” doily in half.


Cut 2 pieces of patterned paper measuring 0.75” x 4” and cut the ends at an angle. Staple them together as shown.


Cut a stitched circle from white card, using the same size circle as for the Chick. Mat the chick onto it for extra sturdiness.


Adhere to the doily and add a strip of paper across the top. Adhere the sentiment from the Valentine Chicks over the paper.


Unfold the doily and it should look like this

Apply a small piece of foam tape to the top back of the Chick image.
Adhere down onto the doily as shown.
On the inside of the doily, apply a piece of double sided tape to each side of the fold. When you fill the cellophane bag with chocolates, remove the backing from the tape and adhere the doily over the top of the bag.

For the Card:
Cut
1 x piece of white card measuring 4” x 8”
2 x pieces of white card measuring 3.75” x 3.75”
1 x piece of patterned paper measuring 3.5” x 3.5”
1 x piece of contrasting paper measuring 2” x 3.5”
1 x stitched circle or punched circle (approx. 2” in diameter)

Fold the 4” x 8” piece of white card in half to make a 4” square card base.
Adhere the patterned paper to one of the 3.75” x 3.75” white card pieces and stick down onto the card base. Adhere the second 3.75” x 3.75” piece to the inside back of the card base.
Punch 2 borders 3.75″ long and stick them each side of the contrasting paper.
Apply foam tape/dots to the back of the 2” circle and adhere to the front of the card, towards the top centre.

Cut the chick out using the coordinating Cut It Out Die, of fussy cut with a scissors. Apply foam tape to the back and stick the chick down on the stitched circle.Apply foam tape to the back of the sentiment and adhere to the card front.

All together…
