2468 Box Challenge Gallery , Winner and New Template!

Wow guys, that was a lot of entries for our very first challenge. Pam and I are thrilled you are so far enjoying this new blog and it's challenges. We decided that after a week of creating, we too need to create again so here are our second samples. In each sample, we played with the template just a bit to make something completely different.

For Pam's sample she used a piece of pattern paper measuring 6"x 11" and scored every 2 1/2" across instead of 2". Then scored up on the bottom 1 1/2", making the box a little larger. Pam then added a handle and embellishments to finish.

For my sample, I used the same size cardstock (5 1/2" x 8 1/2") and scored the same way on the short side (2", 4", 6" and 8") but on the long side instead of scoring up 2" on one side, I scored 1 1/2" in on both sides. It made this great little box with top flap!

You liked that one? Try this! We are ready to challenge you again with milk cartons! Click on the template link below and see our samples below as well!

Milk Carton Template

For my sample, I decided to brayer three different colours on some vellum cardstock and fold it into the milk carton. This gave a sort of sunrise/sunset effect. I embossed a blossom stem and added a Chinese character. I can just see this filled with loose tea or fortune cookies!


Pam's sample uses Whisper White card stock

and pattern paper . The top portion was colored a pale shade of blue using a marker, then stamped with beach themed stamps. Pam embellished with different flowers, stickers, brads and a cute little crab eyelet to finish off her beach themed milk carton.
