SR#63 Embossing Card De' Shea

My son Justin asked me to make a gift for his friend Shea's 18th Birthday.  Instructions were nothing too Fancy of Girly.  This is what I came up with.  I used a pillow box from Dollar Tree (set of 6) and made a large tag.  The box was approximately 6" wide.  I cut 3 circles Large circles and 8 small circles using my cricut and embossed the top layer with circles.  I cut the SHEA and 18 from Cricut Platinum Schoolhouse.  I used my labeler to write Happy Birthday.  I added pop dots on all layers to give it dimension and finished it off with a little bling.   I filled the pillow box with lottery tickets, a gift card, and candy.  He said she really liked it.


This project was inspired by the Stampin Royalty #63 Embossing Challenge.  

The back of the tag had a pocket with a tag for the birthday message.

St. Patrick's Day Pillow Box

I am the hostess for my Stamp Club this month and wanted to make a special treat for my friends. I had a bunch of plain white pillow boxes and decided to start with that as my base.

The measurements for this project: Layer 1 (Dark Green) 3" x 9", Layer 2 (Kraft Paper) Crimped 2 1/2" x 9", Layer 3 (Misc designer paper) 1 1/2" x 9".  I wrapped a gold ribbon around the corrugated section and tied a knot.  I stamped the Happy St. Patrick's Day circle (Stampin up) and layer onto a dark green scalloped circle.

For the inside I stamped the Irish Blessing and rolled like a scroll with a dark green band (Small Slit Punch).

I filled each pillow box with candy and the secret message.  I hope they like them.

Here is a picture of the different designer paper I used.
They were really easy to make.

Oh Lucky Owl!

When I was playing around with my two step owl punch this one looked really sad.  I added a pink heart and the saying I'm So Lucky!

This is the inside of the card.

The stamp was from stampabilities.

CRC 78 Earth Day Thinking of You

I made a very simple card for this challange.  I started with a recycled Kraft Base and covered it with orange paper.  I stamped the Trees onto a scrap of designer paper.  I punched a circle out of plastic packaging and punched a smaller hole to time onto the Rafia.  

I stamped thinking of you in the corner.  

For this project I used:

Stamps: Teeny tiny wishes, everyday flexible phrases, and Lovely as a Tree all from Stampin up.

Ink: Versafine.
