It s time to put your Gorgeous Grunge stamp set to use to make this bright and fun cards and box set!
Instructions: Step 1 Cut one 7-1/2 x 9 piece of Island Indigo card stock. Stamp the splatter image from Gorgeous Grunge all over the card stock on both sides in Island Indigo ink. Step 2 Use your Stampin Trimmer with the scoring blade to score as shown below. Use Paper Snips to cut on the lines indicated in red. Apply Sticky Strip in the locations indicated with the blue lines. Flip the card stock over to the other side and apply Sticky Strip in the locations indicated with the green lines. Fold on all the score lines. 3/4 1-1/2 7-1/2 8-1/4 3/4 1-1/2 6 6-3/4 Step 3 Remove the Sticky Strip liner from the small corner tabs and adhere them to the inside of the adjacent side flap (Step 3a). Remove the Sticky Strip liner from the remaining flaps and adhere them to the inside of the box sides (Step 3b).
Step 3a Step 3b Step 4 Cut two 6-1/8 x 6 pieces of Coastal Cabana card stock. With a 6-1/8 side against the top of your Stampin Trimmer score at 3/4. Rotate the card stock 180 degrees and score at 3/4. Repeat on the other Coastal Cabana card stock. Step 5 Stamp the angled lines image from Gorgeous Grunge onto the 3/4 wide sides of one piece of Step 4 in Coastal Cabana ink. This will be your box sleeve top. Place the card stock so the stamped side is against the table and apply Sticky Strip right against each 6 long outside edge on the 3/4 wide flaps. Step 6 Take the remaining piece from Step 4. This will be your box sleeve bottom. Apply Sticky Strip along both edges just like you did in Step 5. Fold the flaps so the Sticky Strip is on the outside. Remove the Sticky Strip liner from the flaps on the box sleeve and adhere the stamped flap completely over the top of the flap on the box sleeve bottom. Repeat to adhere the other side of the box sleeve. Now the box you made in Step 3 can slide inside the sleeve you just finished.

Step 7 Step 8 Use the large tag Framelit from the Chalk Talk Framelits in your Big Shot with a scrap of Smoky Slate card stock to cut out a tag. Stamp the sketchy line image from Gorgeous Grunge several times across the tag horizontally in VersaMark ink. Cover the stamped image with White embossing powder, tap off the excess, and heat it with your Heat Tool. Now use a Stamping Sponge with Smoky Slate ink to sponge around the edges. Step 9 Stamp the smaller filigree tag image from Chalk Talk onto a scrap of Basic Black card stock in VersaMark ink. Cover the stamped image with White embossing powder, tap off the excess, and heat it with your Heat Tool. Cut out the tag with the Chalk Talk Framelits in the Big Shot.
