Today's project features several projects from the July-August 2021 mini catalog by Stampin' Up! I came up with this idea after seeing someone make a box for some Christmas tags and that inspired this project. I tried making the box for the tags three different ways before I was happy with the end result. The really nice thing about it is, if you want to use up your Designer Series Paper, this is a good use of it. Because I designed this to be hung on a Christmas tree, I chose to use cardstock for mine. You can watch my FB Live video over at KnT Designs by Teresa from November 2, 2021, to see how I made the tags and box. This box will hold three tags of each of the largest dies of the Tailor Made Tags along with two of the smaller tags. That's eight tags in all.
For the box, you will need a 6x6 piece of cardstock or DSP (Soft Succulent)
Score on one side at 1/2, 2 3/4, 3 1/4 and 5 1/2"
Turn 1/4 turn clockwise and score at
1/2, 5 and 5 1/2" Trim according to the photo template
Designer Series Paper
1 piece at 2 1/8 x 4 3/8 If using a directional pattern, it should be in portrait mode
