Instructions
The Soap Dish Gift Box measures 6.5” x 3” x 4.7’
I selected cardstock from the Blazing Poppy Paper Collection
that had a design that would look great on the inside and outside. The box was assembled according to the
downloadable instructions. I used the default
settings.
The size of the gift box is great for that special gift!
I stamped my Blazing Poppy Petals with my Misty but I love
placing it on the red Stamp Mat Pad for added cushion and I then use it for my workspace. The image was stamped with Memento Tuxedo
Black Dye Ink on X-press It paper. Both are compatible with Copic Alcohol
Markers.
The image was colored using Copic Markers and Memento
Espresso Truffle Dye Ink.

R14 to the shadow areas.
·
YR 24 was placed on top of the R14.
·
The image was blended out using YR 16, YR23 and
YR20
·
The centers were colored with C7, C4 and C3
·
The edges were sponged using Espresso Truffle
Ink.
The Blazing Poppy Petals were cut using the Blazing poppy
Die. The petals were lightly misted with
water on the underside and shaped with the Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit. Using my shaping mat on top of the stamping
mat pad gives added cushion. The petals
were set aside to dry.
The gift box was embellished with baby breath and
pearls. The flowers were adhered using
my hot glue gun. A Small amount of Wink
of Stella was applied to the highlights to add some shine. I created faux
Flower Soft centers for my poppies by rubbing two pieces of Styrofoam together
and placing it in a baggie with a few drops of black re-inkers. I allowed it to dry and adhered it to the
center of the flowers with clear art glitter glue.
This makes a wonderful gift box to give to a special
person. I love how the paper coordinates
beautifully with the dimensional poppies.
