INSTRUCTIONS

1. Using the Curvy Keepsake Box Thinlits Dies (135853), cut out two pieces of Basic Black (121045) cardstock. Using a Bone Folder (102300) gently curve both pieces inward.

2. Overlap pieces and adhere together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue (110755), being careful that your curvy box will be able to close.

3. Punch out a Whisper White (100730) oval with the Extra-Large Oval Punch (119859). Cut the bottom off and adhere to the front of the box.

4. Punch out two Whisper White circles with the 1/2” Circle Punch (119869). Adhere two smaller Basic Black circles to the white circles for the eyes. Using a White Stampin’ Chalk Marker, add little dashes to the eyes and adhere to the box.

5. Punch out a heart from the Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack (133787) in Pumpkin Pie (105117) cardstock. This will be the nose of the penguin. Also in Pumpkin Pie, punch out the feet using the Modern Label Punch (119849). Cut in 1/2 and adhere to the bottom of the box.

6. Stamp the striped image from the Starburst Sayings (133182-wood, 133185-clear) stamp set in both Cherry Cobbler (126966) and Wild Wasabi (126959) Classic Ink and cut out using the Starburst Framelits (132967). Punch a hole through each of the “peppermints” and tie onto top of penguin with Bakers’ Twine.
