Whittaker's Coconut Slab Box

I have been on the hunt lately for ideas on how to use the Tranquil Tide patterned paper from the Fresh Florals Designer Series Paper Stack.  I have no trouble using the other colours, but it seems that I have been stock piling the Tranquil Tide sheets and I have a bit of a collection happening.

Today I had success, it is amazing what jumps out at you at the shops. 

These Whittaker's Coconut Slabs have Tranquil Tide in the wrapper (or close enough), so this got me thinking about a little box using the Tranquil Tide DSP.

I cased the belly band topper from Linda Parker, I just added the Gold Glimmer Dragon Fly.   

You could change the Thank You sentiment to one appropriate for Easter, leave off the Dragon Fly and you have a great little gift for Easter.

Instructions added 26 March 2018

Technique

Cut and fold box base, glue tabs to form box.  Cut and fold the box lid, glue tabs to form lid.  Put Whittaker’s Coconut Slab into the box and put the lid on.

To create the belly band, cut a piece of cardstock 6” x 1” and a piece of Designer Series Paper 6” x 7/8”.  Adhere these together and wrap around the box.

Create the topper for the belly band by cutting out a Scalloped Oval, stamp the images onto a piece of whisper white and punch out using the Label Punch and the 1 ¼” Circle Punch.  Adhere together with dimensionals.  Adhere to the belly band.  A gold dragon fly can be added is you wish.
