I am just in love with the new Cricut Flower Shoppe and Cricut Sweet Tooth Boxes cartridges! I love the quick and easy projects that can be made with them!
Above, using K and Co. paper, I cut the box at "fit to page" to make it as large as possible.
Quickly and easily, I put the box together using Terrifically Tacky Tape. I inked the edges of the lid to create some definition between the lid and body of the box.
Now, for the really fun part: making the flower! I just love the new Cricut Flower Shoppe cartridge - so easy and quick to make gorgeous flowers! I cut this flower at 3-1/2" for the bottom layer and then went down in sizing by 1/2" for the next layer, then by 1/4" afterwards. The best thing to do is experiment with making the flowers using the different shapes and layers.
I am sorry this post isn't longer. I came down with strep throat and am just trying to recover.

Have a great day!
