Hello and welcome to week 3 of the Pootles Design July project
This one took a lot of playing with and card stock put in the bin. I have wanted to wrap this Yankee Candle for a dear friend and just couldn't get it how I wanted, this candle is huge . I put a message on the team Facebook group for assistance and Amanda said just use 2 sheets of paper. Why didn't I just do that in the first place , sometimes the more I think the less productive I am.
I played with silver embossing but that didn't look right so finished with just plain black card stock that I think just made it pop with the pink.
I hope you liked this weeks project and please subscribe to come back and see week 4.
Any questions please get in touch x x
I would love to know how you made the box. This is a popular candle here, too, and I often purchase them for gifts! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteMorning Gail. Thankyou I have often gifted these in the past, they smell lush .I will try and work it all out for you today. I have a coffee and card class today but will get to it this afternoon x x
DeleteAfternoon. The box has already been given away as a gift. So from the trial one there's is 1 sheet of 12 x 11 scored at 4 on the short side and 4 and 8 on the 12 inch side. Second sheet was 8 x 6 scored at 4 an 7 on the long side and 1 and 5 on the 6 inch side. The lid is 6,7/8. X 6,7/8 And scored on all 4 sides at 1 -3/8 . I don't usually do measurements ect but I am happy to start to give it a go. I hope these are ok to follow. I also might have totally done it a hard way but the end result was my box haha x
