8 Cards with Gift Box 031616

This was a gift I made of 8 various type of cards with envelops in a box. The box was made with the We Are Memory Keepers, envelop maker and a piece of DCWV pattern paper. I hope you like this project.

I used a doily and a canvas sticker to decorate the box, and cut a slit to feed some ribbon through for the closure. At the bottom, I will leave a link to Jennifer McGuire's blog where she has a tutorial on how to make the box.

This card uses SSS light bulb stamp set and yellow washi tape on the sides.

On this card I cut an embossed cupcake panel in half and lightly inked it with a teal ink pad. I used washi tape to soften the middle and stamped a sentiment on a die cut.

This is a birthday flip-it card made with Stephanie Barnard's die cuts. Cutting some colorful striped pattern paper and I colored a stamped image with my alcohol markers.

I added a flap to have room to write a message to the recipient in the inside and used an edge punch from Stamping Up. I stamped the sentiment on the inside of the flip.

This Hello card background was made with a Faber Castell Gelatos kit. I used a wood veneer to deboss the talk bubble and impress the yellow ink. Another technic I learned from Jennifer McGuire. I then glued the little man wood veneer. 

This one I kept simple. Stamped stars on a green pattern paper piece and glued it to the card base which was inked with distress ink. I glued the sentiment on the middle of the card.

On this card I used a strip of left over embossed and inked paper and glued it to the bottom. I colored and fuzzy cut the butterfly stamp. I used my cloud corner rounders to cut the card base and stamped the sentiment on it.

This card I used star pattern paper. I then stamped the sentiment twice on white card stock and fuzzy cut one using dimentionals to give it an extra "pow!"

This last card I used a die cut to cut the patter paper. I stamped the sentiment in white card stock and did selective inking with different color inks to give it more interest. I also used my Tim Holtz's marker spritzer to get some extra color on the card base.
