IDEA: Decorating Boxes for Special Occasions

Decorating Boxes for Special Occasions
These boxes are so easy to decorate! We hope our three ideas will provide inspiration for you!

Idea #1: This is the easiest idea of all three! We started with a small kraft pillow box (#51025) and then find three varying stamps (we used leaves) and stamp away! To apply the color we used markers directly onto the stamp.

Idea #2: This idea actually looks harder than it is! To decorate a small craft gift box (#51028) get a straight edge or ruler and simply draw thick and thin lines with markers parallel to each other. For added variety, add some gold or silver lines using a metallic gel pen or marker.

Idea #3: This idea has more steps, but is still very easy to do! Start by stamping the entire large kraft pillow box (#51026) with a snowflake stamp and let the ink dry. In between the snowflakes, use a metallic silver marker to draw swirls on your envelope. Turn the envelope as you're drawing so your swirls all go different directions. Next, use sparkle puffy paint to fill in the snowflakes. Make sure you don't smear your lines! Then just apply dots of sparkle puffy paint in any empty spaces and let the whole thing dry.

We hope these ideas have inspired you to decorate all sorts of kraft paper projects!
