The stamping on the sides is easiest to do while the box top is flat. I scored it first then used the scorelines to help with the placement of the sentiment. Clear mounted stamps really come in handy making it easy to get them straight!

Hanukkah Kisses Box
Leah was invited to her friend's house tonight for festivities for the last night of Hanukkah. We made a card and small hostess gift for her to take.
Though it does not show in the photo, this is stamped on Shimmery White paper so it has a soft sparkle that really dresses it up. The sentiment is stamped with the Illuminate Glimmer Watermark ink so it sparkles too.
The box is made with two 8" X 8" pieces of Midnight Muse cardstock. The bottom is scored 2 inches from each side then cut and assembled.
The top is also scored 2 inches from each side but with a homemade shim in place to make it the perfect size. The shim bumps the paper over just a tad. If you have not seen Connie Stewart's video on making a shim to fit your score board you can check it out HERE.
