Fall Birthday


Hello Hivers,
I made this card in October for my father's birthday. These colors just look so great together. I used my Big Shot and a plate from the Textured Plates Kit #4 to emboss the Soft Suede card stock. The leaf is from the Autumn Days stamp set. I used my circle punches to layer them.

School Pencil Box?

Hello Hivers,


This is not a pencil box. It is a box I made to hold all the 3x6 cards I have shared with you this past week. I decorated this box using an image from Wild About You stamp set. This set is one of my favs. I am sad that it is on the Last Chance List. I also used the Defining Alphabet set and layered it using the Scallop and other circle punches.















To make the box you will need a sheet of card stock cut at 9 1/4" x 9 1/4".

Score at 1", 4 1/4", 5 1/4", and 8 1/2" turn paper and score at 1", 7 1/4" and 8 1/4". Cut where indicated on picture. Use corner rounder on box lid. Adhere using Sticky Strip on back of 8 1/2" strip and bottom flaps. Click photo for larger view.
