Cut a 6x11½” piece of pink cardstock, score along the short side at 3” and the long side at 2¾”, 5½”, 8¼” and 11”. Cut along these four lines up to the 3” line. On the 11” score line cut away the top 3” then fold along the 3” score line.

Die-cut the scalloped edge on the front and side panels leaving the back straight. Fold down the side and front panels then cover the outside and back of the box with green check paper with scalloped border edges.

Die-cut the ‘blooming lovely’ sentiment into a rounded rectangle and draw a wooden sign around the ‘birthday wishes’ sentiment. Attach the sentiments using 3D foam pads and the other elements using glue then decorate using sequins to finish.
