Boo To You Box

 

Happy Friday Peeps!!

Today I am sharing my first Halloween Project of the year.

This is a super simple box called a 2, 4, 6, 8 box

I made it using Pumpkin Pie card stock.

Most all of this is new product that is coming to you in

the Holiday mini Sept. 4th.

This is the Monster Bash Suite all but the sentiment which is from the Boo

To You set.

 

The Ornate Frames Dies is fabulous, you will want this die set, even if

you don't care for Halloween.

The Frames are awesome and would be nice for almost any kind of card or sentiment. 

The little Mummy on the front is cut from some of the Monster Bash DSP.

 

It turned out so cute, I love the Basic Black Scalloped Ribbon too.

Listed below are all the "ingredients" used to make this card.

Happy Thanksgiving Pumpkin Box

Good Monday Morning Peeps!! Hope you all had a great weekend, it was beautiful here in southwest MO.

Today I am sharing a fun little Pumpkin Box that I made for this week's Late Night Stampers Challenge. This week the challenge is "Thanksgiving or Thank you create a project for Thanksgiving or you can make a thank you card. Your choice." I batted around a couple of ideas before landing on this. I used my coluzzle to cut out the ovals. I cut out 6 ovals with pumpkin pie card stock and then sponged the edges with Cajun Craze ink. I had originally thought I would emboss the ovals with the dotted folder but when I was looking for it, I saw the vintage wall and thought it would be so pretty, and it is!!! LOL!!!

I layered the back to ovals together and glued and then added the top oval with some foam tape to give it some dimension. I hand cut the stem using a bit of DS paper from the Autumn Spice pack. I had to cut four and glue two together, because I didn't like the look of the back side of the paper showing. The leaf is a punch I picked up recently It is a marvy embossing punch, altho the embossing is very apparent on this paper. I added the leaf to the pumpkin with more foam tape. The button is from the Deck the Halls button pack and I threaded some twine through the button holes and tied a bow and then added the button to the leaf with my glue gun. The sentiment is from the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set and is stamped with Early Espresso ink onto very vanilla and I hand cut out the end and glued the "flag" on, sliding it under the leaf. I added a stem and leaf to the back of the box but not the button or sentiment.

The box is made with a piece of pumpkin pie card stock 5 inches by 6-1/2 inches. I scored it at 1 inch on both long sides and then score at 2-1/2 inches and 4 inches on the short side.





I think I will make a few more of these to use on my Thanksgiving table. I will add a bag of goodies to the box. This is a fun little box to make, so give it a try!!

Thanks for stopping by today and HAPPY STAMPING!!!

Bring Back Beautiful Petal Box

Good Tuesday Morning Peeps!

Today I have a fun little petal box to share with you. I made this for the Flourishes Bring Back Beautiful Challenge this is challenge #3 and is the beauty of as gift. I got my template for this box from Here.

I am trying hard to achieve the vintage feel/look that is so popular right now, I think I do "cute" better.

I used crumb cake and printed out the template directly onto the card stock. The bottom of the box is super simple. No problem there at all. Next the top of the box, it is a bit more challenging, to say the least!




I used the vintage "Deck the Halls" DS paper for my "petals". I sponged the box heavily with crumb cake ink, it still didn't hide all the lines that printed from the template, for the next one, I need to try and figure that little problem out. I don't see how you could not print the template or how you could use the other side. but I will have to investigate that further.

I used some of the new Cherry Cobbler seam binding for my bow on the top and let it hang down the edges. The sentiment is from the Bells and Boughs stamp set and I used more of the Deck the Halls paper for the little front piece. I used a 1 inch strip of paper and scored every 1/2 inch. I added a antique brad to the center and used some icicle stickles around the sentiment and the round folded fan.

Another view:



Well, that is all from me today. Whatcha think of this box? Should I try another? Maybe in the candy cane paper?

Thanks for stopping by and HAPPY STAMPING!!!
