Everyone loves a party! 

This year for New Years, we are going to a game night with the kids and I wanted to bring along a little something for the adults.

Here is the supplies I used:

a sheet of acetate

Fancy Pants Country Boutique Collection Kit

Scor-Pal

Scor-Tape

Magnolia Tag and Swirly Heart Die

Spellbinder Die

Martha Stewart punch

Maya Roads fabric flowers

Here is a close up of the top and the tag that I made

and the label on the bottom

First start with a piece of 9" x 9" black corrugated paper, score at 3" and 6" and turn the paper 90 degrees and score again at 3" and 6". 

Adhere the box together using Scor-Tape.

The next photo is a little hard to see because it is the acetate.  Cut a piece of acetate 11" x 10", score 1/2, 3 3/4", 6 1/2 and 9 1/2"  make sure you score them really well, it will be easier to fold them.  For the back piece cut a piece of acetate 2 7/8" x 11".

Fold the box together as shown below.

Using Scor-Tape secure the acetate to the corrugated box. 

For the top, use a 5" x 5" piece of paper and score 1" on each side.

To make a circle in the middle for the wine bottle to peak out of, use a cutting template and cut a circle in the middle.  I used Creative Memories cutting system using the #4 circle with the red blade.

Now decorate to make it look festive!

Happy New Year!
