A cute gift idea to give to several friends and family in any occasion. This particular project will be a mother's day present. Inside this box I will place a packet of gardening seeds.

Step 1: Gather Essential Materials for the Project

Materials needed:

- die cutting machine

- die cuts and stamps (purchased from www.papertreyink.com)

- different color stamp pads

- cardstock paper (I used white)

- scallop puncher 3.5 inches

- fillable ornament 3 inches

- ruler

-pencil

-double sided tape

-permanent glue (E6000)

Step 2: Trim Paper to Fit the Cutting Plates

Step 3: Cut Pieces Using the Die Cutting Machine

In this project, I used three sets of Petite Places die and stamp sets. The sets that I used are:
- Home and Garden (die and stamp set)

- Walk in the park (die and stamp set)

- School (die and stamp set)

I used the Home and Garden die and stamp on the majority of the project. I used the Walk in the Park set for the curved stone road, street lamp, bushes, and trees. Lastly, I used the School set for the windows.

Step 4: Cut Extra Pieces Just in Case and Group Pieces Together.

Step 5: Stamp the Die Cut Pieces.

Step 6: Glue the Windows on the House and Start Bending the Pieces.

Step 7: Punch 2 Cardstock and 1 Pattern Paper. Glue All Together Placing the Patterned Paper on Top.

Use the scallop puncher to punch out your pieces.

Step 8: Tape Pieces Together by Using a Double Sided Tape.

The die cut pieces are very easy to put together. The company PapertreyInk had a blog that shows a video clip on how to put together the house and the garden pieces.
