When planning out my projects I usually decide what I want to make fun fold card, box or bag. This time, I stepped out of my comfort zone and decide to try 2 different things this time. I typically do not create a 1 layer card. I always have different paper layers and designer paper. This was a bit of a challeng and with different attempts, my card changed many times along the way.

So first I grabbed the Cottage Wreath Bundle from the Stampin Up Mini Catalog. Grabbed some Basic White for the cardbase a chose a color scheme. I wanted a fall feel so I chose Crushed Curry and Cajun Craze. I started stamping with my lightest color first and then layered darker next. You can see from the pictures below the process I used to create the wreath!  I cut out a piece of glimmer paper using the coordinate dies to add a textured layer to the wreath. I colored the acorns and cut them out and used the bow die in Crumb Cake. And finally, the word Grateful stamped! It was a super easy card to make.
Moving onto the project. I normally create my card and 3D item to match or coordinate. I would use the same stamp sets, colors paper etc and usually make them to be given together. This time I made them independent of each other.

I made pillowbox basket. I used the Pretty Pillowbox dies, Rustic Harvest DSP and the Cup of Tea stamp set. You will also need a piece of cardstock that is 5 1/2x 5 1/2. Score it on 1 side at 1" and 4 1/2 then turn and score it at 2" and 3 1/2" fold on you score line and assemble as you would a basic box. See pictures below for reference. I decided what part of the pattern I wanted visible and aligned the die over that part. You do not need the bottom section of the diecut, so you can set the die to not really cut that part off. Be sure to cut 2 pieces, you will need a front and back.
And if a little bit is there, your just going to cut that section off. Add glue to each side of the box, and attach the pillow box piece. I cut the label and tag out from the Pretty Pillowbox dies and I stamped the Thank you from the Cup of Tea in Crushed Curry.  Added some black twine and linen thread to create double bow. I added a box of mini glue dots to give as a gift. SO cute SO easy!! 
Thank you for stopping by. I hope you enjoyed the projects I have created for you today.
Please leave a comment and let me know what you think and stop by everyone's blogs to see their projects.
Thanks again, Happy Stampin

Wonderful card and project! I am definitely going to have a go with the pillowbox basket. I think it would be a great sell at a craft show! I am filing your idea for next year! Thanks for sharing.
