This weeks creations - Ribbon Box and Hanger Set with Instructions

Hey Bloggers

Back again! This is my solution to cleaning my scrap stash , I organised and cleaned up !

My ribbon box was pretty easy to make, I have used some picture framing inserts I picked up cheap from the frame shop ($1 a bag in a basket ) but you could use a Kaszazz Chipboard product, I would use my 12 x 12 chipboard if I didn't have these to use up.

To Begin cut your pieces from heavy card or chipboard :

Base 7.5" x 5"

Ends 2.6" x 5" (x2)

Front & Back 2.25" x 7.5 ( x2 )

Centre Divider 7.3" x 2.4"

Handle 7.3 x 0.5"

Note: Measurements for centre divider will vary please note the width of your base product

Purple Bazzill Cuts

9" x 7.5"

1.25 x7.5"

5" x 3" ( x2 )

Before you assemble using your end pieces punch your handle holes at 1.5" and 3.5" and 0.5" down from your top edge. Using your Handle piece punch centrally 0.5" from each end.

Assembling the base

• attach your 5" x 3" Bazzill to your end pieces using double sided tape, placing it flush with your top edge leaving a 0.4" flap at the base
• Re punch your handle holes in your ends
• Use your scorer to create a crisp fold on the bottom flap
• Add double sided tape to the inside of the bottom flap
• Attach both end pieces to your base
• Attach your bazzill flush with one of your front/back pieces attach to your base along with the other front/back piece

Now your box should look like a star

• Cut 4 x 2" strips of ribbon , attach these to each corner to form your box
• Cut 25" of ribbon and attach around the top edge of your front back sides
• Do these same around your bottom edge - not only does it look pretty it strengthens your box

Ready to make the handle

• Attach your handle piece in the centre of your bazzill
• Re punch your handle holes
• Use a scorer to fold the card around your handle
• Re punch the back handle holes again
• Cut 2 x 28"strips of ribbon
  Run them along the top of your handle and through your handle holes , separate ribbons, put the from the inside out of your box and tie a knot to secure , repeat opposite end.
  

Ready for your inserts

• Cut white card stock 7.3" x 10"
• Score this at 2.5" , 5" , 7.5"
• Attach this to your centre divider piece and place it in the bottom of your box

I also made a ribbon insert by scoring strips of white card stock the scores go

1" -1.75" - 2.75" - 3.75" - 4.5" - 5.5" - 6.5" - 7.25" and so on ....

Its a 1 " / 0.75 " / 1" / 1" / 0.75" pattern

I have ten slots that comfortable fit my 2 metre Kasz ribbon reels . I have left the back as a bigger compartment and have filled it well with my other kaszazz ribbons.

Now your ready to decorate

I have used my chipboard letters from Kaszazz , embossing them 4 times to get a thick coating in black. And there you have it a fun way to use & store your products !

Now for the ribbon hanger. This I made to clean up all those bits I have and I also wanted to be able to see them so they get used first not last from now on !

This was easy easy easy to make and turned out great... I again used my bargain buy from the picture frame shop but would be perfect for a 6 x 6 drilled album cover and the instructions will be for the Kaszazz 6 x 6 drilled album covers.

To make the ribbon hanger front

• with your already drilled holes in your at the top of work , use a ruler and pencil to rule a line 1",2",3",4",5"
• repeat this process from the side making a 1 inch grid from the base of your album cover

• now get your hammer ready because you have some punching to do. I use my kasz Punch N Set which you don't usually need a hammer to operate but I don't have the strength to punch through chipboard ...so out comes the hammer !
• Punch the amount of holes that suit you but remember to consider how you will be decorating before you punch I have punched the basic rectangle shape and left a small gap to decorate.
• attach 6" x 6" Bazzill to the front of your hanger with double sided sticker paper
• turn this over and re punch all of your holes
• attach 6" x 6 " white card stock to the rear of your front and repeat above process.

Ribbon hanger back

Simply cover both sides of your album cover with card stock colour of your choice and re punch the 2 predrilled holes.

Tie some ribbon through your front and back covers (see pic above ) Tie it loose enough for your covers to open a bit. Decorate it up a bit ...I used some funky blooms offcuts here. Now thread up all those bits in the draw and use them up :)

I hope you have as much fun making these projects for yourself as I did !

To make the above stamp pocket

Using Denim SB Essentials card stock

• Cut piece 8.5cm x 16cm
• Score 8.5cm edge - 1 cm in from both edges
• leaving you with 1cm - 6.5cm - 1cm sections
  then
• score 16 cm edge - 7cm , 14cm leaving a 2 cm flap at top
• now cut your 1 cm edges from top 2cm flap to the first 7cm score line (you will be removing 2x1cm & 7 x 1cm sections from either side.
• carefully tear across the top flap in a upwards motion to expose card stock core
• attach super tape to the 2 remain 7 x 1 cm flaps and secure to back of pocket
• attach your ribbon across the top back of pocket
• using a ruler & alphamidi sticker adhere the word stamp to your pocket
• then secure to your project

That little bit extra - optional

I have stamped the Flourish stamp randomly on my project -

in the top corner of the front page I have stamped in Blue & Maroon using the fading technique ( ink up your stamp then stamp on scrap paper then stamp onto your work )

I have also stamped this image on the bottom strip of denim on front page in blue

& off the edge of the in page decoration in Maroon.

I have cut photo copy paper to make my note paper and stamped with the flourish stamp off the edge of the bottom left corner in Maroon & the bird image in the top right corner in blue

once again I have used the fading out technique to achieve a more distressed look


I hope you all have great fun with this cute little project ........

Happy Papercrafting
