Fourth of July Trio

For the 4th of July I made a box, card and candy bar wrapper.

For this box I made all cuts using Plantin Schoolbook Cartridge.  I cut the box at Fit to Page all other cuts real dial size.  Blue layer 3.25"x 4.25", Red layer 3.0"x 4.0", and rounded corners.  Ovals light blue 3.0" and white 2.8".  The 4 was cut 1.5".  I attached a paper flag with tape, used pop dots to raise the oval layers, added blue bling to the front, and tied ribbon to the handle.  I filled with candy and poppers for a nice little treat.  

For this card I started with 4.25x11" paper.  I made the following cuts blue 2"x4", Red and White 2"x 3.25".  I used the stars embossing folder for the blue and note card for the red and white.  I cut 2 stars with Plantin Schoolhouse cartridge at 1.5" and 1.7"  I layered and added a silver brad.  It was a super fast and easy card.

For this candy Wrapper I cut the red paper 5.5" x 3.25" and crimped.  I cut the Blue oval 2.5" and White 2.3".   The 4 was cut 1.5"  I wrapped with ribbon and added the flag, pop dots for the ovals, and bling.  I entered this project in the Stampin Royalty #78 contest this week.

Bunny Bucket

At My Friend Joyce's monthly Stampin up class we made some really cute bunny boxes.  I came home and made my own version.  I used a small white bucket (3/1.00 at dollar tree) for my body and added a few additional punches and facial features.  I plan to give these to all of my co-workers and a few of my favorite accounts.  I filled the inside with green grass and Hershey Kisses.  On the back I added a cotton ball for a tail.  Punches used; ornament, small circle, sm heart, and eyes (owl punch) medium oval and small oval.   I added some black details, and white to the eyes.  I sponged pink to give some dimension.
Happy  Easter.
