Supply List Ink Real Red craft VersaMark Cardstock/Paper Dashing Designer Series Paper Accessories On Board Trimmings chipboard paper mache box 5" in diameter iridescent ice embossing powder glassy glaze embossing powder Pretties kit large rhinestone brad embossing gun crafter's tool kit pencil scissors mod podge glue dots
I filled this box with a chipboard ornament, 3 scallop ornaments, and Hershey's kissses. I used iridescent easter grass for filler.
Step 1 Cut 2 strips of Dashing DSP to fit around the height of the box. My strips measured 3" x 12", but box sizes vary.
Step 2 Use mod podge to adhere the paper to the box. Apply mod podge to the box and the paper for better fusion. Once the paper is on the box apply a thin coat of mod podge to give it a finished look.
Step 3 Trace the lid onto a piece of Dashing DSP. Cut out. Using the same paper cut 2 strips to cover the edge. My measurements were 1" X 12".
Step 4 Adhere the paper to the top and sides of the lid. Finish off with a thin layer of mod podge over the top.
Step 5 Choose a large piece of chipboard from the On Board Trimmings. Embellish using the instructions 6-10 found in the chipboard ornament tutorial.
Step 6 Punch a hole in the middle using the smaller hole punch in the crafter's toolkit.
Step 7 Insert brad into hole.
Step 8 Place glue dots on each point and in the center. Adhere to the center of the lid.
