60th Birthday card

Here's a commissioned card that I made, for my friend Jan 

to send to her friend to celebrate her 60th Birthday.

I cut down the front of a Polka Dot Tag-a-bag Gift bag

and matted this onto Blushing Bride card stock, then onto a white base card.

The colour combo is Crumb Cake, Blushing Bride and White.

Flower Shop stamp set was used for the flowers, which were then

punched using the matching Pansy Punch

The sentiments were computer generated.

A little gift box

At Telford I received a lovely little gift box with two chocolate sweets inside,

 as a swap from fellow Stampin' Up Demonstrator, Maria Mitchell.

Here's my version of this little box.

Front view - closed

Top view - closed

Side view - open

Rear view - open

The box measures 2 inches square by 1.1/4" deep and is a useful size for small items of jewellery.

The colour combo is mainly Coastal Cabana, Tangerine Tango and White.

Paper is from Retro Fresh Designer Series Paper.

Flowers stamped and punched using Flower Shop stamp set with Pansy Punch

and Petite Petals stamp set and matching Punch.

The lid sides are punched using the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch.

The fastener is a piece of  Pool Party Twine (SAB)

Flower centre is a Basic Rhinestone.

I really love this little box - thank you so much Maria
