Instructions: From the stiff card or cereal box cut 2 5” squares and round all corners. From Fairy Flora dsp cut 2 5” squares and round the corners. The box is a basic box construction.  So from a 7.5” square of pale green card score at 1.5” and 6”.  Turn and score again 1.5 and 6”.  Then you need to cut once at each corner to the score line (4 cuts total) to fold in one edge to form the box. Adhere to hold. This gives you a 4.5-inch box. For the lid start with a 7-5/8” square of pale green card and score at 1.5 and 6-1/8”. (Making the lid a little larger for an easy fit.) Make the corner cuts the same as before but before glue is added line up the pale green box centre with the top dsp and the thick card to die cut the centre cut out. Cut!!  Fold and adhere the side to make to box lid. Cut a piece of Clear Cardstock 4.5 inches square. Centre and adhere the pale green card base to the thick card/cereal box make sure the dsp is facing up. For the lid start with the pale green lid then layer the thick card then the clear cardstock with the dsp as the top layer. To decorate the box cut 2 x 1.25 “ strips from a 12x12 piece of dsp. Join to make it long enough to fit around all four sides. Adhere to sides of lid.  Layer a length of ribbon and some lace and adhere these to the sides of the lid. Tie a double looped bob and add to the centr Chalk around the outside edge of the lid. Stamp two flowers from HCPC 3406 to the Pink Paislee dsp using apricot appealink. Stamp 4 sets of leaves from HCPC 3405 to dark green card using bamboo leaves ink.  With the matching dies cut out the leaves and flowers. Sponge the edges of all the petals in apricot appeal and chalk the edges of the leaves in white chalk ink. Shape and form the flowers using dries clear to hold the layers together. Add the flower centre to each. Arrange two sets of leaves in opposite corners of the lid, adhere and add the completed flower to each corner. Punch 2 butterflies from Fanciful flight, sponge with apricot appeal and add 3 peach Sprinkles to the body of each.  Add these to the lid using Dries clear to adhere. Add 5 artichoke Sprinkles to each of the two remaining corners to complete.
