Hi, Marjolijn here. Today It’s my time to show you something I made. It’s a double pizza box, it can hold just a little more! And of course I made it in Halloween style!!!
I made the closure with a strip that I stamped on. Then tie a string around it and the spider keeps everything together.
The new Florals collection is so beautiful, I am in love with the pine cones! The berries were given a layer of glossy accents. With a little sisal in between it makes it just a little more alive. The lantern is not from E.C.D. but from my own collection. The text is made with the alphabet from the Art journal collection.
With a spider web in the top corner, no E.C.D either, and the mushrooms from Annette Green’s collection, it is really finished.
The box contains wonderful mood makers with a nice scent. And how did I turn it into a double box?
Well, that’s actually quite simple…
Die cut 2 boxes. I used a 12″ x 12″ sheet of cardstock.
For one box, cut the edge on the long side at the score line. Place double-sided tape on the long side of the other box. Unfortunately I don’t have the right size E.C.D. tape.
Punch a circle from one box for the view, this is of course an option because it is not necessary, without a window is also possible.
Remove the protective tape and apply some glue so that you can still slide a little.
Stick the box together, I cut off the flaps otherwise the box will be very thick in those places and you won’t need them.
Then you ink the box on the score lines both on the inside and on the outside. If you don’t like that, you can also omit this step.
Stick a piece of acetate on the inside.
And then you can decorate the box inside and out with design paper. I used the thin paper from Esther’s book for this, the thick paper is too thick, it won’t look nice.
By also giving the edges a layer of design paper you can hide the places where everything is put together.
The inside is fully decorated.
And the outside, you can decorate the box as you like. You can use it for all kinds of purposes, just like the small pizza box. Even to store larger die-cut parts if you like.
I hope you enjoyed today’s double pizza box project and will give it a try. Thanks for your visit 🙂
Love,
Marjolijn

Love this! Thanks for sharing and providing directions. I envision lots of uses for this larger size! Thanks for “thinking outside the box”!!
Fantastic use of the die – make something different with what you have. Beautiful box with the greenery and berries. WOW
This is fantastic. Your colors are perfect for fall and combining the boxes is so creative.
