I was LIVE on Heartfelt Creations today with EZ alternative ways
to use the Gift of Love Box Die! Here is one of them
and a step by step tutorial for you. Watch me LIVE

Also see how I make these beautiful poinsettia flowers!
As soon as I saw this die I just knew I had to make a Christmas Lantern!
Here I show you how to make it with 4 sides, but check out my live
as I have a larger one that I made as well!
Directions:
Step 1: Using black card die cut four of the box sides.
Step 2: Die cut the centre piece on all four sides and then fold along all
of the score lines and adhere the sides together.
TIP: Glue the square part first and then the top pieces, it goes together easily.
Step 3: Adhere the base together.
Step 4: Using 3D silver stamp paint apply to the box to create
a metallic look. Apply from the left to right along each section using
a motion sweeping across the box. Cut a strip of card 7 1/2" x 3/4" and
use the stamp paint on this also. This is the handle.
Using brads and a hole punch attach the handle to the box.
Step 5: Using Dries White glue and Frosting Powder create a snowy effect
over the box and handle and leave to dry.
Step 6: Decorate with the Sparkling Poinsettia flowers and add
a battery candle inside.
Happy Crafting everyone!
