Step 1:
Using the Squeeze Punches, cut out small circles and large ovals from different coloured sheets of paper and tracing paper.

Step 2:
Cut out two large hearts with the ShapeCutter™ and the Heart ShapeTemplate™ using pink and white paper.

Step 3:
Using the Stamp press, position letters forming the first names of the bride and groom and the date of the wedding... Apply the ink pad to the letters and print a large oval and large hearts. Change ink pad colour to give the design a lift and insert heart-shaped eyelets with the setter into the hearts and ovals.

Step 4:
To make the flower, cut out hearts of different sizes with the ShapeCutter™ and Heart ShapeTemplate™ using pink, plum and white paper. Assemble them together with a touch of wood glue applied with a flat brush. Put into the press and once the glue is dry, curve the petals slightly to give volume. Stick the flower onto the lid of the box with a touch of wood glue. For an elegant finish, stick a circle of tracing paper with a printed silver design in the centre, cut out with the Squeeze Punch.

Step 5:
Assemble, attaching them with a small length of plum cord. Fill the box with white and pink sugared almonds.
