I love making little boxes and this Nests of Winter Diamond Box is one of the cutest boxes I have made. It measures about 2 3/4″ square by 2″ high and is the perfect size to hold a lovely big piece of chocolate. I made it using the beautiful Nests of Winter Designer Series Paper which is in the September – December mini catalog available September 3. i made the lid from Garden Green Cardstock. Unfortunatel, I can’t show you a picture of this dsp yet because I have cut up several of the pieces already.
Also included in the Nests of Winter Suite is the Winterly Tree Tops bundle. I love how the dies have a die for cutting out two different birds that are part of the stamp set but also cut out the birds of one of the designs in the dsp. Stampin’ Up! is offering more and more of this coordination so that if you are in a hurry or don’t like coloring, you can still use the images inyour creations. That is how I got the bird on the lid of the box.
