Stepper Box - Challenge 199 LNS

This week's challenge is to make a gift for Christmas.  Since I already had this gift , a stepper box, made I decided to use it for this challenge.
I have sold a lot of these at my craft fairs this fall, so they are a very popular item.  Little girls (and grandmas) love these little box with the hidden boxes inside.

If you would like to make a Stepper box (sometimes called Fantasy Boxes), there is a great tutorial here

Here are the supplies I used:
  • cardboard (from designer paper packs)
  • designer paper (12 by 12") - I used retired
  • coordinating card stock (Lucky Limeade)
  • embellishment - calypso coral ribbon, Summer smooches brad
  • glue stick
  • double sided tape
  • pencil, ruler, bone folder (all boxes are origami folded)
The lid was decorated using a ribbon rosette make using the new Jumbo sticky rounds.
