Candy Wrapper Box

I love the new Sizzix Candy Wrapper Box manual die (exclusive to Stampin Up), but I didn't want to pay out the moolah for it.  So, I decided to design my own version of it with my gypsy.  Using only the square from the George & Basic Shapes cartridge, I was able to make my own version of the box.  I actually have 5 different lengths of the box in my original gypsy file.  The 2" size is pictured below.  I also used a stamp from the Stampin Up Oval All set, and also the coordinating oval and scalloped oval punches.  The paper is from DCWV Whimsy stack.  I am very pleased with my finished box.  Now, to decide what to put inside...

  3. Thanks, Sheila! I have come a long way with my gypsy, thanks to your challenges!

    Laurie, do you have a gypsy? I only have this as a gypsy file, and I have not had any time to write out instructions for scoring it yet. The box is only cut on the cricut, not scored. I use a score pal for that. Let me know if you are still interested.
