You're My Favorite Pillow Box

Hey there!  I am back today with a fun little project I put together.  I found some really fun, free packaging templates last week and decided to give one a try.  I decided on a pillow box, nice and easy and cute.

Here is a little peek at my project.


To start, I printed off the template using Kraft cardstock


I then cut it out, and scored along the lines.


Taking the fabulous Starburst wood stamp from Hero Arts, I stamped the image all over my box.


Taking Scor-tape, I sealed the edge and folded in the ends.


Taking a piece of cream cardstock, I stamped my sentiment from The Craft's Meow's All You Need Is Love set.  I then stamped some hearts in pink, hot pink and red.



Using black ribbon from The Ribbon Cariousel, I tied it around my package and secured the tag with twine.


All that is left is to fill it with some yummy goodies to give to someone special!


Thank you so much for stopping by today!  I hope you have a great one!


Lindsay
