A Box for Jaycee

This is for my soon to be new cousin Jaycee. I purchased the box from Papertreyink, these little gems are a little pricey-$4 each and the patterned paper is by Pebblesinc. I painted the lower portion of my egg box making memories blueberry. After the paint had dried I adhered the strip paper using modge podge, followed by the white grosgrain ribbon. It's a beautiful evening here in DFW, so I think for dinner we're going to eat on the back porch. I hope all of you guys have a great evening!!

"A" Coaster Box

Ok, to start: all the paper used for this box is from SU's fall flowers DSP collection. For this box I took 4 coasters and covered them with the "flowerdy" paper (again I used my tombo multi-mono). For the front coaster I took a sheet of the striped paper and cut it to 2 x 4. I used my Giga scalloped punch to punch out the really rust flowered paper. The regular circle is my mega circle punch. The letter "A" is basic grey chipboard covered with SU! really rust craft pad. The ribbon is SU! kraft taffeta (man I love that stuff!!) it is beautiful in real life!!

SUPPLIES: Ink: really rust (craft) Paper: fall flowers DSP Accessories: giga scalloped circle punch, mega circle punch, kraft taffeta ribbon, bind it all.

Cider 5-in-1

I just love these boxes!! My girlfriend LOVES green so I decided to make her a little "just because" gift. I didnt want it all to be green so I added the sky ribbon.

SUPPLIES: Stamps: taggers dozen Paper: cider, river rock Ink: river rock Accessories: sky ribbon, small and regular tag punches.

Explosion..

This was my first attempt at an exposion box and I must say I really like how it turned out. Beate has an awsome tutorial on how to make one here: http://splitcoaststampers.com/resources/explosionbox.php

SUPPLIES: Stamps: taggers dozen Paper: cerise, basic gray, vanilla Ink: sky blue Accessories: basic gray taffeta, tag punch, small tag punch.

5-in-1-template box

There's a great tutorial on how to make this box at SCS; http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/fiveinonetemplatebox.php I used blue bayou card stock for the bottom of the box and porcelain prints for the top. For some odd reason my Friskars cutter has never cut a straight line so I always have to "rough" up the edges of anything I cut to make it look straight. For the tag I stamped the "happy day" stamp, from the taggers dozen set, in blue bayou and added some stickles to the"flames". I hope ya'll like it!
