Zentangle-inspired Sizzix Big Shot Pro Square Box with Lid

I liked my Zentangle-inspired Sizzix Big Shot Pro Pillow Purse (here) so much that I thought I'd try something similar using the Sizzix Big Shot Pro Square Box with Lid die.

For this project, I printed my previously scanned Zentangle-inspired art on both sides of plain white cardstock.  (Now that I've refreshed my ink cartridges, my printer is happy again and this time it did what I asked it to do - LOL!!!)

Here's the outside of my little box . . .


. . . and here's the inside!


Having all of those tangles on the inside of the lid and box bottom makes me happy . . . it looks just like I thought it would.

This tangle-patterned box needs few embellishments so I just wrapped some sparkly Beaux Regards Melody 3/8" Black Jack ribbon around the lid, including the inside.  A few McGill branches punched out of Bazzill Bling in white and black added a light filler for my rolled ribbon rose.  Studio112 self-adhesive pearls helped to dress up this box top:


It'll make a beautiful party favor for any occasion.

This Sizzix Big Shot Pro Square Box with Lid is just 2 1/4" x 2 1/4" x 2 1/4" so I can't fit anything very large inside.  It may hold some type of jewelry . . . Hmmm.
