Gift Box with Envelope Die

Hi Friends!!!
Its Mansi again, How have you guys been.. well I have been MIA as usual but lately 2 things have really inspired me to craft. first is the ZIG MARKERS and secondly Our new DCAM ENVLOPE DIE. I loved both the products so much that it got me to crafting again... And not to forget Rajni Chawla ( Aunty) , she is an inspiration to all of us.
Zig Markers are SUPERB... I mean they are no fuss pens... the blending just happens.. you do not need to be a painter and finally I was able to color.. yayyy...
And what do I say for our enelope die, just I wanted to pat my back for making this... Its the perfect size for money envelope. and guess what.. I even created box out of this. I enjoyed making that so much. This will be a picture heavy post.. so grab a coffe and sit back.. I hope I can inspire you a bit...

Here is the top view of the box.

What I did was I took 4 envelope Die cuts and joined them together with the hinge. I ct 1 hinge of each envelope and joined all of them together.

I then Folded the bottom flaps and pasted them with the glue. I cut 2 pieces of chip boards and pasted them inside& outside of the bottom of the box, sandwiching the bottom flaps in between the 2 chipboards.

I then cut 4 chipboards matching to the size of the walls and pasted them inside walls of the box to make it sturdy.

I then finished the box using some LawnFawn Pattern Papers and some painted critters which I adhered with Zig 2 way Pen. Its awesome adhesive to put small items. Blue when wet and clear when dry; use 2 different ways. For a permanent hold, apply glue to 1 paper surface and adhere it to another paper surface. For a repositionable hold, apply it to a paper surface and allow it to dry clear before adhering it to the other paper.
