As you know I love making gift boxes and being a busy mum I like to make user friendly projects that can be quickly made up in quantities. This Pilgrim Pillow Box is super easy and can be filled with non-expensive candy to give to your family and friends. Obviously, you can switch the image for whatever occasion.
I imported the 3.5” x 4.5 “ Pillow Box from the Pazzles Library and amended it slightly. I deleted the finger notch opening at one end of the Pillow Box and closed the path to create a curve. I punched a hole at the top to enable me to thread my ribbon and assemble the box.
I then cut some patterned paper to make a wrapper around the pillow box using my paper trimmer. I made my topper using the base shape of the Round Doilie cutting file having resized my file to fit to the front of my wrapper. I then created a 2” circle using my Pazzles software and imported the Thanksgiving Owls cutting files. On this occasion I used the Pilgrim image and arranged it inside my 2” circle. I then Print and Cut the topper or you could use a circle punch depending how many you wanted to make.
I inked up the edges of the topper and threaded some wired ribbon at the top of my pillow box and attached a paper black flower. I like to pretty things up!
