Give a little something extra with this charming Downtown Abbey inspired filigree box, filled with your thoughtful gift for all occasions!
You will need;
- Big Score
- Trimmer and scissors
- Collall Tacky Glue
- Acetate
- Crafter’s Companion A4 hammered Cream cardstock
- Downton Abbey Oval Filigree Die
- Downton Abbey 3D Bow Filigree Die
- Pearls from your stash
1 - Using your Big Score, place
the short side of a piece of A4 card to the butt of the lid side and score at 6
½ inches – cut on this line – you will need 2 of these. Score one on all 4
sides at 1 inch on the lid side of your board, and 1 on all 4 sides on the base
side of your board
2 - Place the Filigree part of
the oval die in the centre of the box lid, and place the largest of the oval
nesting dies inside that, tape with a little low tack tape and run through your
die cutting machine.
3 - Turn it over, cut a piece of
acetate to size and use tacky glue to apply the acetate to the box lid, I use
my fingertip it gives a thinner coverage and the glue dries clear through the
acetate so you won’t get unsightly glue marks
4 - Cut the corners of both
pieces of cardstock
5 - Burnish the score lines and
using tacky glue, construct them together
6 - You can now decorate how you
choose – I used the nesting oval die and the Filigree Bow to finish my design
