Instructions:
- Lay the take out box flat over your craft sheet or scrap paper. Tap the gold StazOn inkpad lightly onto the box, creating a sponge-like effect. Let dry for a few minutes, then turn it over and cover the other side. Stamp Asian characters in black StazOn all over the 4 sides of the box.
- Stamp a large focal stamp onto black cardstock with Versamark. Sprinkle on gold embossing powder and emboss using a heat embossing tool. Cut around the edge, leaving a 1 /16” border. Glue a 3”x¾” strip of black cardstock across the middle of the front of the box. Glue the gold focal image to the center. Assemble the box.
- Cut out a small tag from white cardstock and mat onto black cardstock, leaving a 1/16” border. Write a greeting on the tag and punch a 1/8” hole at the top. Take 6” of black Memory thread and string it through the hole. String the Memory Thread through the handle and twist the ends together.
- Cut three 6” pieces of gold and three 6” pieces of black Memory Thread. Tie each piece around the handle of the box and curl the ends using a pencil or Q-tip. Take the black sheer dot ribbon from the Vintage Roses ribbons. Cut a 10” piece and tie it in a small bow. Use Zots™ to attach the bow to the box securely.
