Die cut the second size butterfly in white cardstock, adhere the body only to front so that the wings flap

Die cut the filigree butterfly in white card, ink the edges and over the wings, adhere the body only with dries clear glue so that the wings flap

Die cut a large butterfly in white card. Cut in half. Back the card with each piece, so that a small amount of white trim shows around the top and bottom of the card

Stamp, color and die cut a mixture of Wild Rose flowers, each with two layers,  place in the flower shaping mold, lightly spritz with water and run through a die cutting machine. Tap out and allow to dry. When dry, pierce a hole in the center, add white pearl stamens

HOW TO MAKE THE FLAP BOX

I hope you follow along on how to make the box. 

YOU WILL NEED

Two sheets of A4 card, papers from the paper pad, one of the flowers you made, a butterfly and a  little bird, wet glue, clips or pegs, hot glue, score board, paper trimmer 

For the base

Cut card to 8 1/4 x 6 1/4 

Score at 1 inch on three sides, do not score on the top

To shape the top, die cut using a semi circle die or draw around a small plate and cut the top off

Cut slits in the bottom for the tabs, one on either side, cut out small wedge pieces from the tabs so they glue together well

 Apply glue to the top of the two tabs, bring the bottom layer up and glue together, hold in place with pegs or bull dog clips until dry.

For the Flap Front 

 Cut card stock to 8 1/4 x 10 3/4

Score at 1 inch on three sides, leave the top edge free to shape

To die cut the shaped flap, 

Take a small plate and draw around so that you have a semi circle, cut out, cut off the side pieces 

Cut slits in the bottom to make tabs, cut out a small wedge piece from the tabs so that they glue together well, add wet glue to the top of the tabs, bring the base and tabs together, add pegs or clips until the glue dries

Slot the two parts together, one inside the other, adhere with wet glue

When dry, decorate with papers from the paper pad, ink the edges, add a flower, butterfly and a little bird to the flap. All done.

I will try and do a photo step by step for the box soon.
