I think you are going to enjoy this gorgeous In Color Stampin' Up! color combination! I am participating in the Color Fusers Blog Hop again this month and am excited about my Gift Box project today! For our challenges, we are required to use at least 3 of the colors each month, so I selected the 3 In Colors from the March 2017 Color Fuser combination.
My White Gift Box project features Mint Macaron, Peekaboo Peach and Watermelon Wonder.
Instead of a card I decided to create a gift box using the Stampin' Up! White Gift Box (#142000) which is 3" x 3" x 3" and comes with an acetate sleeve that you can slide onto the box. I wrapped In Color Designer Paper around the box, and then decorated the front with doilies and die cut flowers and leaves from the Special Reason stamp set and Stylish Stems coordinating framelit set.
I elected to put the decoration for the top of the box on the acetate sleeve.
After wrapping the box with 2 layers of In Color designer paper and strips of Mint Macaron Sale a Bration glimmer paper, I added a Lace Doily and an In Color doily (Watermelon Wonder) and tied it all up with Peekaboo Peach ribbon! Then I decorated it with the flowers (shown below) and White Perfect Accents in the flower centers.
To decorate my box, I stamped the Special Reason flower on the printed polkadot Mint Macaron In Color designer paper and also on Whisper White cardstock. I die cut the flowers with the Stylish Stems framelits to add to my box.

Don't forget… Watermelon Wonder is one of 5 Stampin' Up! In Colors retiring SOON! See THIS POST for all the info!
I decided to also die cut some of the Stylish Stems leaves with the Mint Macaron Sale a Bration glimmer paper to add to my box! I love the little splash of glitz! I'm not sure who I am giving this box to, or for what occasion (I do have someone in mind), but I thought that "celebrate" would be a good sentiment to use no matter what I decide to put in the box!
Do you love those Mint Macaron glimmer leaves!? I do!! Get your glimmer paper free with your $50 order! See THIS POST for more details!
The stamped Celebrate image and the banner are both found in the Birthday Bright stamp set on page 13 of the Occasions catalog. I die cut the banner with the Bunch of Banners framelit set.

I love your box! I forget about stamping right on our DSP. The Special Reason bundle is so great. I sure hope it carries over to the new catalog!
Beautiful box! Thanks for sharing your project with us.
Hugs,
Heather
I love the color combination you had to work with – the box turned out gorgeous! I think some baubles and trinkets from Brighton would fit perfectly in there (wink!). Great tip about stamping right on the DSP, that adds texture and is a great way to further customize the paper to fit your project.
Such a pretty decorated box Patty. Great combination of papers to go with the stamped flowers!
I love all the details on this box. So pretty!
