DIY: Valentine's Day Surprise Box❣️✨ [ESP-ENG]

Sin más, aquí te muestro su elaboración y deseo que les guste🩷

Hi Friends! I hope you are feeling great, around here, we are✨.
You see, February is one of my favorite months, especially because it celebrates my birthday, as well as the month of love and friendship, carnival (mostly) so it's a pretty joyful month🩷🌷.
I have always said and demonstrated that one of my love languages is giving gifts (and I don't necessarily need it to be a special day to surprise those I love) so yes, this love language characterizes me a lot and as we are already close to this great Valentine's Day, I decided to make a nice little surprise box, with some messages, sweets and that also serves to give along with an additional detail as a watch, chain or something else small ✨.

Without further ado, here I show you how to make it and I hope you like it🩷.

Paso a Paso | Step by Step✨

✨ Por el reverso de la cartulina doble faz, traze un cuadro con medidas de 30cm×30cm. Luego lo dividí en 9 cuadros de 10cm cada uno, eliminando los 4 de las esquinas y me ayude con la punta de una tijera y una regla para marcar muy bien las lineas y realizar el doblez.

✨ On the back of the double-sided cardboard, I traced a square measuring 30cm×30cm. Then I divided it into 9 squares of 10cm each, eliminating the 4 corners and helped me with the tip of a scissors and a ruler to mark very well the lines and make the fold.

✨ Tomé uno de los cuadros que había retirado anteriormente y lo pegué justo en el centro. Seguidamente en cartulina roja recorte 4 cuadros de 10cm×10cm cada uno y pegué en los pliegues de la cajita, quedando tal como se aprecia en el collage.

✨ I took one of the pictures I had previously removed and glued it right in the center. Then I cut 4 squares of 10cm×10cm each out of red cardboard and glued them in the folds of the box, as shown in the collage.

✨ En cartulina blanca medi un rectángulo o tira de 7cm de ancho por lo largo de la hoja de cartulina que seria un aproximado de 24cm, luego recorté todas sus orillas con una tijera de formas, y procedi a hacer 3 dobles de unos 7cm aproximadamente, sobrando uno mas pequeño.

✨ Luego con un marcador en cada cuadro realicé dibujos de deformito con algunos mensajes.

✨ In white cardboard I measured a rectangle or strip of 7cm wide along the length of the sheet of cardboard that would be approximately 24cm, then I cut all its edges with a scissors, and proceeded to make 3 doubles of about 7cm approximately, leaving a smaller one.

✨ Then with a marker on each square I made deformed drawings with some messages.

✨ En dos de las piezas rojas le realice corazones y puntos con pintura al frío blanca, luego escribí sobre ella algunos otros mensajes y en el centro pegue los mensajes con los deformitos.

📌 En las otras dos partes rojas, podemos pegar con cinta adhesiva algunos dulces.

✨ On two of the red pieces I made hearts and dots with white cold paint, then I wrote on it some other messages and in the center I glued the messages with the little deformities.

📌 On the other two red parts, we can tape some candies.

✨ Para la tapa de esta cajita sorpresa, medi un cuadro de 10,5cm×10,5cm y con pestañas a cada lado de 3cm cada una. Luego realicé los dobleces y pegué. Justo en el centro utilice otro cuadro de cartulina negro.

✨ For the lid of this little surprise box, I made a 10,5cm×10,5cm square with tabs on each side of 3cm each, then I made the folds and glued. Then I made the folds and glued. Right in the center I used another black cardboard square.

✨ Para decorar la tapa utilicé cinta roja, colocándola tipo regalo y decorando en el centro, con un lazo hecho de la misma cinta, ¡Culminando asi este hermoso detalle!

To decorate the lid I used red ribbon, placing it as a gift and decorating it in the center with a bow made of the same ribbon, thus completing this beautiful detail.
