Mat the ATC box box both the outside
and inside with the pattern sheets.
You can use your own discretion when
measuring I normally leave a small
border so that I can still see a bit of the box.
Identify and cut the Truck shapes shown
in the assembly above using the pattern
sheets from the DCE collection.
Engine Hull Section
Cab Section
Truck Bed Section and
Chassis Section
Tip: I always use the red double sided
tape for all my off the page projects.
It makes assembly easier and will
also prevent the project from falling apart.

Cut 2 long strips of grunge paper measuring
30 cm x 1.5 cm and 2 small strips measuring
10 cm x 1.5 cm. Originally I wanted the
straps to go around the ATC box and
then just slip them off when opening it
but then I decide to cut the pieces off
where the lid of the box
opens up instead.
Cut 3 tags to mat the black tags
(from the book box) using the G45
tag die. Add a mixed media textured die
to the tags and cut.
Tip: Use masking tape to keep the
die in place,thus making sure it
stays in the position you want it.

Ink the edges of the little stickers
from the collection and mat onto
cardstock. I used the the Graphic 45
signature series lights pack. LOVE
these signature series packs
they coordinate well with the
G45 collections.
Cut 3 apothecary bottles from
chipboard using the Tim Holtz
apothecary bottles bigz die. Colour
these with some rust pastes.
You will notice that I used these
cute plastic car wheels for my truck
instead of the ones from the cut file.
Paint the 'rim' of the wheel
with black gesso and colour with
some metallique waxes.
Tip: I wanted the wheels to match
the colours of my truck plus all
the embellishments are the
same colour too.
Add some washi tape to the roof
of the truck. Add a chipboard
embellishment on top adhere
with foam squares.
Tip: Adhering these pieces with
foam squares will give it a little dimension.
Add some metal chain on
the sides of the truck.
Add the metal handles and G45
door knobs to the 'doors' of the truck.
Tip : Adhere the metal pieces with soft
gloss gel or glossy accents ensuring
gloss gel or glossy accents ensuring
they will not fall off.
Add the chipboard clocks to the
'lights' of the truck. Add an art pebble
to each adhere with glossy accents.
Add the metal embellishments to
the book box as seen in picture.
Adhere all of these with a soft gloss
gel. Add the matte pearl gems on top
the book box as seen in picture.
Adhere all of these with a soft gloss
gel. Add the matte pearl gems on top
of the box in the centre.
Add some embellishments and
chipboard on the side of the box let
them hang from metal and ball chains.
Tear some pieces of cloth randomly
and add to the inside of the box.
Thanks for stopping by!
Happy Papercrafting!
