Sponged & Dry Embossed Lidded Box

[@mimiartates8956]

Greetings from Tennessee in the USA. Lovely, a just lovely project. I'm going to attempt to make the box. Thank you for the inspiration.

Hi Sam, thanks again for another lovely box. It has been a real pleasure to learn from you and prepare gifts in personalised boxes, better than gift wrapping!

One of the most attractive effects I've seen this season. I've just enough time to make a few boxes like it for Xmas. Thanks

Many thanks for this video Sam. I have learnt a lot of new techniques. Great stuff. Thank you

Cute box! A touch of glimmer spray or wink of Stella would add a nice finish on the lid.

Very elegant! This is going in a playlist for future reference. The experience I've gained from watching your videos for a few years has really paid off this Christmas. I'm finding more and more products (at least in the US) come in minimal packaging, without a box. I know this is good for the environment, but it surely makes it hard to wrap many presents. I've made a box or bag for almost all of the presents I'm giving this season. Though it's meant a lot more work, I've enjoyed it. I love the experience of working with paper (scoring, folding, burnishing, cutting and assembling) and if I do say so myself, my presents look gorgeous; almost too pretty to open :)

[@sweetfudge4u]

can you list all the tools you used, I'm kinda new to these crafts.. thanks

In the Description Area, below the video, if you click on the link labeled "project details" it will take you right to her specific blog post for this project which will have all the products listed (with photos and links) at the end of her post. If you get hooked on watching crafting videos, you will find most crafters will either list all products used in the Description Area or provide a direct link to their blog post of the project with a supply list (as Sam has done here). Hope this helps. FYI: If you are new to crafting (and box making), pay special attention to her moving the box lid a very slight smidge away from the left side of the scoring board. This very important step accounts for the thickness of the cardstock base so the lid will fit perfectly without causing the bottom to buckle. If you feel uncomfortable doing this "by eye", you can take a small (say 1/2" by the length of longest side of lid paper) scrap strip of the cardstock you used for the base and place it between the lid paper and left side of the scoring board while you score each side of the lid. The thickness of that scrap will account for the thickness of the base to give a perfectly fitting lid.

I love the way you speak ever so clear... but a little bit too fast for me... of course it is ovoids that you have lots of sperience and know well what you doing but for us that don't know and try extremely hard to learn... well it is a bit too fast... but beautiful project and of course it is easier if one has the right tools...
