Bonbon Box & Gift Card Joy Fold

Today’s projects feature the Peaceful Season Bundle paired with the Take a Bow Designer Series Paper! These projects are great for multiple occasions – just change up the sentiments and paper! The Bonbon Gift Box is a new one for me and the Gift Card Joy Fold is a pairing of two of my favorite fun folds!

These projects really pop for Christmas with the Take a Bow Designer Series Paper! Let’s get to it!


Bonbon Gift Box

Is this treat box not the the cutest?! I love how it looks like a wrapped piece of candy! What a fun project for the holidays! Here’s another look:

This project uses a 6″ x 6″ piece of Designer Series Paper, including the belly band. It’s a great no-waste project to use your beautiful Designer Series Paper!

I love the detail on the die from Peaceful Season! It’s finished off with a Gold Textured Adhesive-Backed Dot. Wouldn’t this be a cute birthday or baby shower project?!

Here’s the template for reference (not to scale):

PROJECT MEASUREMENTS:

  • Inside Dimensions – 1-3/8″H x 2″W x 1-3/8″D
  • Designer Series Paper – 4-3/4″ x 6″
    • Score along the 6″ side at 1-3/8″, 2-3/4″, 4-1/8″, and 5-1/2″
    • Score along the 4-3/4″ side at 1-3/8″ from each side
  • Designer Series Paper – 1-1/4″ x 6″ (remaining piece from 6″ x 6″ for belly band)
  • ALTERNATIVE IDEA #1 – Adjust the 4-3/4″ measurement for a shorter/longer box!
  • ALTERNATIVE IDEA #2 – Skip the diagonal score lines along the bottom and glue flaps closed for a “pumpkin-style” box!

Gift Card Joy Fold

The Joy Fold is one of my favorite fun fold cards of all time followed by the Gift Card Fold! Pair them together and it’s magic! You can have so much fun pairing different complementary patterns with this fun fold card!

Doesn’t that Granny Apple Green really make this card pop?! Here’s what the card looks like open:

Perfect for a gift card and a personal note! I hope you’ll give this combo fun fold a try!
