Valentine Tag & Treat Box
GlueArts Designer: Linda Albrecht
Supplies:
Glue Arts Accent It All Vinyl-white
Patterned Papers- My Minds Eye
Trinket Pins- Maya Road
Rhinestones- Melissa Frances
Die Cuts- AccuCut & Provo Craft
Wood box- Michael's
Miscellaneous:
Lace & Ric Rac trim
Cotton string
Mini clothespin
Paper heart doily
Instructions:
1. Cover treat box with paper using Perma Tac Adhesive, distress edges with sandpaper and brown inkpad.
2. Cut embellishments from paper and from U Cut It Foam. I like to apply paper directly to one side of the foam (slightly bigger than the pieces that I am cutting) so there is no room to apply the die cut paper incorrectly... especially with a shape that is scalloped or intricate, because the foam sticks like crazy! There is no taking it off to line up the edges better once you place it on the foam-- and that's a good thing, right? :-)

3. For the tiny flowers cut from the foam, remove one side of the backing and apply glitter to the sticky side. Remove other side backing as you apply them to your project.

Instructions:
1). Using your Glue Glider handle with Extreme Tac cartridge, adhere paper to letters. Trim off excess. I left the back and sides bare.
2). Stamp all your images that you plan to cut out. Cutting them out with a kraft knife and inking the edges a bit looks great! I adhered various cut out stamps with the U-Cut it foam! I love the dimension it adds, especially with the hot air balloons, gives them a 'floating' look.

3). Add more stamped images directly onto the letters.
4). Embellish with buttons, twine, etc. I used a Canvas corp paper kraft pouch along with hearts backed with U-cut it foam to give the look of hearts floating out of the envelope.
Also, a fun little tip, for more dimension LAYER the foam for extra 'pop'!
