Hello crafty people! It’s Lucile! I’m very happy to be guest designing for Jen!
How to Make DIY Gift Boxes Using Scrapbook Paper
Today I’m sharing a new DIY project—we will create boxes in which you could put candies, chocolate or a small gift to offer to a friend.
Pick Out Paper
For this DIY, I used the Chasing Adventures collection. I selected papers in black, white and pink as a base (to personalize yours, change up the papers to your desired color scheme).
Use the 1-2-3 Punch Board to Create Boxes
To create my boxes, I used the 1-2-3 punch board from We R Memory Keepers and cut three boxes of different sizes.
Decorate the Boxes
To make the biggest box, I used a black and white print. I created a banner to close the box. For decoration, I used a cupcake wrapper to make a rosette. Then I added a wooden emblem. I used 3D foam squares to add dimension. Finally, I cut strips of paper to make ribbons.
Use a Cupcake Wrapper to Make a Rosette
I wanted to make boxes in the same style, so I picked up several similar items on each box. For the second, I re-used the same technique to make a rosette. I added a foliage accent in wood. I love the mix of pastel colors with the natural side and raw wood.
For the last box, I created the same style of decoration but I added it above my box.
I hope you liked this DIY set of boxes. I look forward to seeing your creations!
See you soon, Lucile
I love your boxes Lucile!

The boxes are adorable but the accent decorations you added to the top just make it really WOW!
I’m wondering if the images inside the wreath might be part of a stamp set?
