How cute are these? I struggled with the design for a cute little box for ages and then made this design my mistake and decided to stick with it. The pretty paper is from the Sweet Symmetry suite and gives this project a lovely summer vibe. I did two colour ways, Just Jude and Calypso Coral. Which do you like best? Let me know in the comments below.

Isn’t this a pretty bag to place a special treat in. I love making gift bags and boxes and have a whole stack of them. Ever since I was a child I’ve always loved pretty packaging and taking time to make a gift look extra special. It makes all the difference I think to show you took the time to care.

This is a really good size box that would be useful not only as a gift box but also as a storage box. The paper is gorgeous isn’t? It is the Flower & Field designer series paper which is a freebie I got during Sale-a-bration. There is very little wastage with this box as the belly band is made using the left over cardstock from making the base.

Measurements

  • Just Jade cardstock – 10″ X 10″ scored at 2″ on all sides
  • Field and Flower Designer Series Paper – 8 1/16″ X 8 1/16″, scored at 1″ on all sides.
  • 2″ strips of Just Jade Cardstock – Left over from cutting the base piece

Strips – Using Your Scraps – Stampin’ Up!

I love being able to use up my scraps. This card uses strips of patterned paper cut at wonky angles to create this great card. A great sentiment is all you need to finish off this card.

Strips - Using Your Scraps - Stampin' Up!
Strips – Using Your Scraps – Stampin’ Up!

This paper is the Flowers for Every Season Designer Series Paper (DSP). It is so pretty and I really enjoying using it time and time again. I’ve started to plan my mini album with this DSP to hold all my summer flower pictures from our own garden and all the surrounding villages.

I’ve long made cards using scraps but my upline Amanda Fowler showed me this technique using wonky cut pieces of paper and leaving gaps between each strip. It is quiet effective don’t you think?

measurements

  • Just Jade A6 Card base – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half
  • Whisper White 14.35cm x 10cm
  • Strips of Flowers for Every Season cut across at an angle

I love driving around in the summer and seeing all the pretty gardens. The village of Nettleham, about 10 minutes from us is especially pretty. The local garden nursery sponsors hanging baskets outside various establishments and they always look amazing.

Thank you for coming by. I hope you enjoyed this card. The supply list and video tutorial are below. Until next time Enjoy Being Creative.

Just a Note – Butterly Gala – Stampin’ Up!

This is a simple card when you just what to send just a note to someone. I love how these bright butterflies look on the woodgrain background. I’ve stamped on coloured cardstock which is in itself unusual for me but I like the effect.

Just a Note – Butterly Gala – Stampin’ Up!

This card features two in-colours, Magenta Madness and Just Jade. I’ve used rhinestones to give the butterflies some sparkly bodies. I’ve done a previous card using these butterflies to make a rainbow effect. They stamp beautifully and of course, they have a coordinating punch.
