This Christmas Cantilever Box

Just thought I would share another one of the Handled Cantilever boxes made recently using my tutorial (details here)

This has been created by Nicola Carson over in Ireland using the This Christmas Speciality papers...

I think it is truly stunning in these papers... and I am sure you will too... so please feel free to pop over to Nicola's blog here and tell her so...
Now I know Nicola is planning on putting cookies and hot chocolate in hers... but what would you put in yours?

Thanks so much for sharing with me Nicola - and for letting me share to my world...

August Monthly Jems Blog Hop

Well hello and welcome from me, Amanda Bates at The Craft Spa to the Jems Blog Hop ...

The theme this time is Boxes or Bags - or indeed any type of Packaging project...
So since it has been a long while since I made a Handled Cantilever Box... and my Affectionately Yours papers were still out desperate to be put to use again...
The box is made from Kraft card and I faux stitched everything with a marker pen...

I kept the decoration really simple as there are enough lovely flowers in the papers... just a copper embossed Love & Affection flower, Botanicals Blooms leaves and small Blossom Blooms punched flowers. And an admittance... the brads and candy dots are retired stock... but I had to have brads for the project!!
I do still have the Imperial and Metric pdf Tutorials for sale for this box. Reduced to £3  - OR  - if you are in the UK - free with a £25+ Stampin' Up! order (before P&P) - for the next week.

But PLEASE do remember to tell me whether you want the Imperial (inches) or Metric (centimetres) tutorial. 
The easiest and quickest way is to send £3(GBP) by Paypal to me at thecraftspa@gmail.com  stating CANTILEVER BOX and whether IMPERIAL or METRIC. Paypal does any currency conversion necessary if you select GBP as the currency to send so you don't need to worry about that.... I will send the tutorial through to your Paypal email address (unless otherwise advised on your payment notes) within 24 hours of your payment.

OR click here and EMAIL ME to request a Paypal invoice …  Please advise your Paypal account email address and state CANTILEVER BOX and whether IMPERIAL or METRIC. You will then receive an invoice via Paypal for payment. The tutorial will be emailed to your Paypal email address (unless otherwise advised on your payment notes) within 24 hours of your payment.

Or  (option for UK residents only) - place an online order here quoting the Current Stampin Rewards/Host Code (see Top Right for code).  Please make sure you can see my name (Amanda Bates) at the top right of your screen so that you know you are shopping with me…!

Your Stampin Up! goods will be with you direct from Stampin’ Up! in 4-7 days.

A New Cantilever Box in Gold Soiree papers

Amanda Bates at The Craft Spa 569

When I saw this week’s Weekly Deals I realised that I had not shared the latest Handled Cantilever Box I made a while ago. The stunning Gold Soiree papers and the A4 cardstock in Pistachio Pudding (& Crisp Canteloupe) are on the Deals with 25% discount until tomorrow, 31st March.  My last Sale A Bration order will be in about 9.30pm…

Amanda Bates at The Craft Spa 564

I have just added a bit of extra floral decoration to one of the front arms.

Tip for you though … don’t try adding any greeting to the arms … as it ends up upside down when you open the box….. luckily I worked that one out before I did it!!

Night & Day Cantilever Box

Edited to Add August 2014.... I am now able to sell the tutorial for this Handled Cantilever Box.. just click on the Email Me link to the to RHS to arrange your copy.....

Here is the cantilever box (or sewing or tool box) that we will be doing in next weeks workouts. So this is what you will (or can ...) be making next Monday night and Tuesday morning (24/25 May) This box uses the gorgeous Night and Day speciality papers & Taken with Teal and Basic Black cardstock. Just a little addition of some diecut felt from my stash and a stamped Circle of Friendship greeting - and voila!

A big thanks needs to go to Sarah Bonsell for her fabulous tutorial on this Cantilever Box. Find it here..... http://wwwcardoasis.blogspot.com/

I just love this box - though I added the handles to Sarah's work ( just by scoring and gluing two 9" by 1" pieces of cardstock in half and then scoring at 2 1/2" and 6 1/2")

Here are some other photos to show the box partly open and fully open. What will you put in yours???
