Thank You Secret Box
For the box: Trace and cut the right and left box side patterns from cardstock. Cut on the solid lines and score on the dashed lines. On the left box half, crease all the scores in valley folds. Place glue on one triangle that includes a 1" wide flap. Bring the triangle next to it over the triangle with glue and press in place, creating a corner. Add glue to the flap and wrap it to the inside, securing the corner. Repeat on the other side.
For the right box half, repeat the cutting, scoring, and folding. Crease the extra flap in a valley fold. Construct this box half as for the right half, gluing triangles together and wrapping the flaps to the inside. Add glue or tape to the outer surface of the extra flap. Place the halves side by side and slide the extra flap to the inside of the left half, attaching it to the inside back and creating a hinge for the box.
For the trays: Trace and cut two tray patterns from cardstock. Score on the dashed lines, then crease all the scores in valley folds. On each tray, place glue or tape on the outside surfaces of the corner tabs. Fold the tabs to the inside and attach to the adjacent tray sides. Cut two 2¾"x2¾" Emma’s Garden ivory floral papers and glue to the inside bottoms.
On one tray, place glue on two adjacent outer sides. Carefully slide the tray into the right box half at the bottom and attach it to the inside. Repeat with the second tray, gluing it in the left half next to the top. Cut four 2¾"x1¼" Emma’s Garden tan dotted papers and glue one to each exposed tray side. Swing the box sides together to close the box.
Decorating the sides: Cut four 2 7/8"x2 7/8" Emma’s Garden brown floral papers and glue one to each outer box side. Punch out the pink/ivory 2" tag, remove the nibs, and stamp “thank you” on it. Thread it onto the left end of the ribbon, then tie a knot to secure it. Knot the other end of the ribbon, then glue the left end just right of the opening edge of the box, 7/8" from the top. Wrap and glue the ribbon around the box, ending just left of the box opening.
Punch out a pink double flower die cut and remove the nibs. Glue it under the end of the tag, then foam tape the tag in place. Punch out the remaining die cuts shown and remove the nibs. Glue and foam tape the three die cuts to the sides as shown, then glue a butterfly and burlap blossom as shown.
For the top: Cut 2¾"x2¾" Emma’s Garden pink floral paper and cut in half diagonally. Glue to the top. Foam tape the 3"x2¾" flower cluster die cut to the right top, allowing it to extend over the left half. Stamp “just for you” on the tag, then glue and foam tape the remaining die cuts as shown. Glue a large burlap blossom to the large flower cluster and a small blossom to the left flower cluster. Place pearls on the top and sides as shown.
