Squidgy Valentine Gift Set

Supplies:

Dies – Scalloped circle, stitched circle, stitched tags, pennant & heart (optional)

How to:

Stamp one large and two small Smoochie Squidgy on to white card. and colour using your preferred medium. Fussy cut around the outline of each image. Set the images aside to work on the gift set.
For the Candy Box, cut:
1x   4.5″ x 8″ piece of red card
1x   6.5″ x 5″ piece of red card
4x   4 7/8″ x 1 3/8″ pieces of white card
4x  4.75″ x 1.25″ pieces of patterned paper

Score the 4.5″ x 8″ piece of red card on the 8″ side at 1.5″ and 6.5″. Flip to the 4.5″ side and score at 1.5″ and 3″.

Cut on the 1.5″ and 3″ score lines up to the intersecting score line, on both ends. Taper the edges of the outside tabs and trim them down a little.

Apply adhesive to the outer tabs and adhere to the inside of the centre tab. Repeat on the other side. to create a box shape.

Score the 6.5″ x 5″ piece of card on the 6.5″ side at 0.25″. Take the opposite end and fold it up to the 0.25″ score line, crease with a bone folder, then fold each half in half again. This will create four 1-9/16″ sides and a 0.25″ tab.

Apply adhesive to the 0.25″ end and adhere to the opposite end to make the sleeve for the box.

Ensure the box fits before adding the layers.

For the Bottle Tag, cut one piece of card measuring 2.5″ x 6 7/8″. Score at 0.25″ and 2 3/8″

Cut out a 1.5″ circle between the score lines. Fold down the 0.25″ score line and crease with a bone folder.

Cut a piece of white card measuring 2 1/8″ x 4 3/8″ and a selection of paper to decorate.
