Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. BOX: Score one side of 11” x 11” pattern cardstock at 1”, 4”, 7” and 10”. Rotate one turn and score at 1”, 3.5”, 4” 7”, 7.5” and 10”. See template for how it should look when complete. Score on all lines but cut ONLY on red lines. Use the small scallop edge punch on the edges of the cut out box ends (4 total). Apply adhesive under each scalloped edge and adhere to outside of box. Apply adhesive using the 3/8” adhesive runner to the .5” tabs of box. Attach sides with these Tabs on the inside. Use the 3/8” adhesive runner to apply adhesive to the bottom outside edge of box. Wrap coordinating ribbon over adhesive and tie in knot on front right corner. Trim ends of ribbon to desired length. Use one 4” x 4” piece of Bazzill Bling to cut one large snowflake using the Wishblade. Punch one small snowflake from the Bazzill Bling. Attach small snowflake to center of large snowflake and box with pearl brad. Follow directions for combining images and text using the Design Disc Maker. Print sentiment and image onto the strip of white smooth cardstock using the Design Runner and ruler accessory. Trim end to look like a banner. Attach to box front using the 3/8” adhesive runner.
  2. TEABAG WRAPS: Score pattern papers at 1” and 3.75”. Using the 3/8” adhesive runner make a small strip of adhesive on the inside of the wrapper. Apply covered teabag to adhesive strip. Fold up tea bag wrap and secure flap with another small strip of adhesive. Tie ribbon around center of top flap, knot and trim ends to desired length. Adhere 2” x 2” piece of coordinating colored cardstock to front center of teabag wrapper (below the flap). Follow directions for creating your own text using the Design Disc Maker. Print sentiments onto smooth white cardstock using the Design Runner and ruler accessory. Using the small label punch, punch out each sentiment. Use coordinating ink on edges of punch shape, if desired. Adhere to colored square on front of teabag wrap using the Xyron 250 adhesive machine with permanent adhesive cartridge.
  3. GIFT BAG: Place 12” strip of white cotton twill ribbon onto a solid, smooth surface. Tape both ends to surface so it will not slip. TIP: Tape ruler at both ends also for extra stability while printing on ribbon. Follow directions for creating your own text and images using the Design Disc Maker. Print sentiments onto ribbon using the Design Runner and ruler accessory. Place 2 or 3 wrapped teabags into cellophane bag and secure with white cotton twill ribbon. Tie second small piece of coordinating ribbon above white ribbon and punch the pearl brad thru the white cotton ribbon to secure snowflakes.
