Card in a box

I made this card for my Boss’s birthday, and when it was made I realised it wasn’t going to fit into the envelope without ruining the whole effect of the flower, so I came up with this matching box, which was so successful it resulted in a rather large order, and more coming in all the time, so at the moment I am up to my eyes in cards in boxes!I will show a couple more over the next couple of days, but now the challenge is to make some male themed ones – that’s the next order I will be working on over the weekend. Anyway, for this one I used Bo Bunny enchanted patterned paper, and matching brads, and my sizzix tattered floral die with a prima leaf and sprays of pearls. Once you have the hang of these boxes, I have discoverd it is quite easy to change the size to match any size card, the only thing to remember is to keep the measurements within 12 x 12, otherwise you will run out of cardstock! Til tomorrow….

Happy valentines day

Hello, welcome to my new subscriber, and happy valentines day to you all! I leave the house for work earlier than everyone else here, so it wasn’t until I got home that I discovered my card from my husband – he had been in my craft room and made me one from bits and pieces of my stash… I am just surprised he actually remembered! This is the card I made to celebrate today – Bo Bunny Enchanted papers and brad, blingy ribbon, prima leaf, and  sizzix Tattered Florals die through my cuttlebug.Tonight I am going to stretch myself , play with lots of new stuff and come up with some new designs – thats the plan anyway.. I might just fall asleep in front of the t.v…… Til tomorrow….
