The gorgeous Painted Petals stamp set from the Occasions Catalogue has not carried over into the new 2015-2016 Annual Catalogue. The Occasions Catalogue products are only available for another 5 days, until 2 June. I'm thankful that I already have it as I love this pretty two-step stamping set, especially the three tulip-like flower heads and matching stalks. Here they are stamped on a decorative belly band for a triangle gift box...

Stamps: Painted Petals (wood: 138819, clear: 138822, photopolymer: 137146). Ink: Blackberry Bliss (133642), Soft Sky (131181), Wild Wasabi (126959). Card/Paper: Blackberry Bliss (133682), Soft Sky (131292), Painted Blooms DSP (137784) Gold Foil (132622). Tools: Simply Scored Scoring Tool (122334), Bitty Butterfly Punch (129406), Project Life Corner Punch (135346), Small Oval Punch (), Glue Dots (103683).

This triangle box, a design by Sam Donald, is relatively easy to make (the trick is in the scoring). To finish the gift box, I wrapped it with a strip of Painted Blooms DSP and added a lovely stamped "thank you" panel in Blackberry Bliss, Soft Sky and Wild Wasabi. I picked the colours straight from the DSP and they look gorgeous! Incidentally, the Painted Blooms DSP is also being discontinued and will only be available until 2 June.

I love the shape and size of this gift box, it can hold yummy treats like these...
