Open the front flap (I used the thinnest Velcro from that "box store"). Reveling the 2 matchbox drawers with the new epoxy brads from the Occasions Mini Catalog.
Open the cover completely to reveal the sweets: The larger candy has Sending Love DSP wrapped around along with punched hearts. The crown stamp is from the Tiny Tags set (Occasion Mini). The Nuggets are also wrapped with the Sending Love DSP and simply punched small heart.
The handle: using the Scallop Trim Boarder Punch on both sides, is attached to the top using sticky tape.
(1) 4-1/2" x 9-3/4" Pretty in Pink CS, score along the 9-3/4" side 1-1/4", 3", 1-1/2", 3", leaving 1"
(1) 4-1/4" x 1" Sending Love DSP
(1) 4-1/4" x 2-3/4" Sending Love DSP
(1) 4-1/4" x 1-1/4" Sending Love DSP
(1) 4-1/4" x 3/4" Sending Love DSP
Note: no need for the 2nd 4-1/4" x 2-3/4" Sending Love DSP shown in photo - this ended up to be the bottom of the case which does not need to be covered (optional, though)
(2) Matchbox Covers in Pretty in Pink CS
(2) Matchbox drawers in Whisper White
(1) 4-1/4" x 5-5/8" Pretty in Pink for the top drawer, score 3/4" around all 4 sides
(1) 1" x 5-3/4" Pretty in Pink for the handle, score 5/8" on each end
(1) 3/8" x 5-3/4" Sending Love DSP doe the handle, score 5/8" on each end
(8) 3-1/4" X 1" Sending Love DSP for the Nuggets.
(4) 4-1/2" x 1-1/2" Sending Love DSP for the G. Squares
Left photo: Using a piercer, pierce hole for the Epoxy Brad before assembling the drawer. This way the prongs are not shown on the inside.
Right photo: Assemble the top drawer. Apply sticky tape.
Left photo: apply sticky tape connecting both drawer covers as shown. Apply sticky tape to the top box, too
Right Photo: Center and adhere Covers to the case, Remove sticky tape backing from the top box and position on top of the matchboxes.
Left photo: wrap Nuggets as shown
Right Photo: wrap G. Squares as shown
As an after thought, a handle was added so the measurements should be 1" wide and not 3/4" (especially since I punched both sides)
So I hope you enjoyed this project. The sweets CAN be replaced with sticky notes, paper clips, or binder clips......it's not only sweets!
