To get over this you have to cover with pretty designer series papers. I used the same paper that I used behind the box lid. You cut the paper for the edges at 4.5inches x 1.25 inches. Stick a square of paper behind the die cut image using dimensionals that is 4.75 x 4.75 inches. This creates a recessed lid aperture.
Make sure you pull up all of the tiny petals around the outside of the die cut to maximise the colours under showing through at the top of the box. This is a fabulous die cut and is one of the co-ordinating products available to purchase from the 4th February. It co-ordinates with the Sending you Thoughts stamp set that is available on page 11 of the Sale-a-bration catalogue (not featured in this project but will be in tomorrows project).
This image is of those lovely papers! The one I used is right at the bottom of the pile and is the back of the flowered one! So you get two sheets of it in the packet. The photo is showing each side of the paper as it is double sided.

The rest of the afternoon was spent knitting in front of the fire - isn't that what getting through January is all about?
