If you got here from the wonderfully talented Tosh's blog, you are in the right place. 
 

I made a gift box  full of ODBD stamps. I thought this was a great way to give the gift of ODBD stamps for Christmas.  For this package, I am using ODBD Worship the Lord stamp set. 




I designed the base of the box which measures 4 inches high and 5 inches wide.   I ink distressed all visible edges.  I covered the backs and sides with designer papers.  I cut out a half circle in front.   For the flap, I used a 5 inch wide piece of card stock. I scored this panel at the 5 inch and 6 inch mark.  I cut off 1.5 inches in the front and used the Spellbinder's Grand Circle Scallops to create a scallop lid and a scalloped back.  The back was attached and the top was fold over and around the top.  I added a piece of designer paper to the top portion of the front.  I finished with a piece of ribbon with layered die cut sentiment, and gold pearls.  This gift package can house up to 4 ODBD stamp sets!  Got to love that!
  

 
As always thanks so much for stopping by!  Enjoy the hop!  Next up is the fabulously talented Connie's blog.
