This is a great size box. It’s a good size and measures 6″ X 6″. This is perfect for a special gift. I think it would be lovely to gift a pretty scarf or even a mini photo album.

I’ve made this two ways, one with an Early Espresso Lid (Brown) and one with a Mossy Meadow Lid (Green). Which do you prefer?

Welcome to this Focus Friday post. For the month of May we are looking at using designer series paper (DSP) in different ways. Today I am using the gorgeous Hugs of Happiness DSP to make lots of die cuts to use on my card. They are the focal image for this floral birthday card.

The Hugs of Happiness DSP is simply gorgeous. I absolutely love it!! I’m already planning to my a second pack. Paper-like this is so useful. You can fussy cut these florals if you want but the dies that match the stamp set also cut out the flowers in this DSP. Super useful!! It really stretches this paper and gives you a ton of die cuts.

I was so glad this stamp set didn’t retire this year. I love all the big bold sentiments. They are my cup of tea. This is a very simple card but I’ve added interest with the doily. These are the Heart & Home doilies. They actually come in blue, green & brown. I wanted white though so I used the backside instead!!
