Gift Box with DCAM Envelope Die!

Hey guys!

Spardha here today from The Lazy Owl Designs with a super fun tutorial to share with you.
As you know, DCAM just launched a whole bunch of wonderful designs for dies. My personal favourite is the Split Long Envelope Die because it is SO versatile!

Here's how to easily make a gift box using this cool die set.
Tip: If you have a smaller machine and a bigger die, I have demonstrated a way around it :)

Here's the video tutorial:

Once the box is done, you can decorate it however you like. Although I was, of course, inclined to use the rest of the set to add some texture to the box.

And the chiplets, forever my favourite, were the perfect fit for the theme of the box! <3

I hope you're inspired to use the die-set and don't forget to share your projects with us!

Altered Gift Box with DCAM Chiplets!

Hey guys!

Spardha here today from The Lazy Owl Designs with an AWESOME project!
If you're a crafter, you have re-used and altered various cards, tags and boxes - just like me. I ended up making this gorgeous gift box from an old mobile phone packaging.

Using chalk paint to cover the entire base of the box, make sure you do two coats for a perfect finish. Added patterened paper to matt the photo and then I began the FUN part.

I love layering different embellishments and trying out various combinations to create a perfect mix of soft and contrast. I layered twine bows with lots of floral embellishments and the colours worked so well with the raw chiplet that I didn't have to paint it.

I added a finishing touch with a pearl border around the lid of the box.
We hope this inspires you to up-cycle one of your old boxes. Don't forget to share your projects with us :)
