Decorating a Stampin Up kraft gift box with Fun Flowers & Kindness matters

So - here we are with today's project - not a card! It's a box instead today - an altered Stampin Up kraft box to be precise.

This box was designed to match the Floral Framelits card I posted last week and it contained a small  selection of baked goodies courtesy of Vintage Celebrations sister company Beautiful Bloxham Bakes.

The kraft box (124106 £2.75 for 4 boxes) was covered in a mixture of Perfect Plum spots and stripes designer series paper - spots on the top and stripes on the front.

The flower was die cut using the Blossom Party die (115971 £15.95) using perfect plum, elegant eggplant & rich razzleberry card with a vintage faceted button (127555 £5.50 for 24) and bakers twine fixing the ensemble together. 

The banner was made with very vanilla cardstock stamped with a sentiment from Kindness Matters stamp set  (w 122900, c 122902 £8.95) in Elegant Eggplant and with an ickle butterfly to finish it off. 

The taffeta ribbon bow on the front is in perfect plum and I've punched some scallop edge strips using the scallop edge punch (119882 £14.25) in elegant eggplant and coordinating colour papers.

This not a card is my entry over at C.R.A.F.T #210 - anything but a card, Joanna Sheen - spots & stripes, totally papercrafts #170 - punches &  dies.

Doubt the contents will last long but hope the box gets re-used! See you again tomorrow for a romantic card :)
