If you read my blog on Friday, you know that Jean Fitch won the Blog Candy I was offering because I finally hit 2,000 hits! Thanks for reading! At any rate, I didn't have much stamping time this weekend so I thought I would go ahead and post a picture of the box, as well as the cards, that Jean will be receiving this week. I've also enclosed a surprise in her box so there will be something for her to wonder about until she receives the box! Thanks for all the fabulous comments, Jean! I love it when people enjoy my cards and projects!
I used the Razzleberry Lemonade Designer Series Packet to create the cards and the box.
Card to the left are note cards started with a Crushed Curry base. I layered on DSP and scalloped a Melon Mambo strip, adhering a piece of 1/4" grosgrain White ribbon over this piece. In order to make this look balanced, I pulled my normal trick of punching three 1/4" circles of Melon Mambo cardstock and adhered them to the cards with glue dots.
The card to the right was made with a Melon Mambo base and I layered on two pieces of DSP, ripping them both and rolling the edges. I adhered a piece of Melon Mambo Polka Dotted Ribbon, adding a cheater bow, on the plain side and stamped a sentiment on each card in Whisper White Craft Ink. Here's a picture of the box on its side.
Hope you enjoy these cards, Jean! They are on their way via priority mail!
Enjoy your week -- I've got tons of ideas on projects I hope to complete this week. Big plans and I'm hopeful to get all of my plans completed!
If you are going to be helping with the Cards for the Kids Event and haven't let me know, would you mind dropping me an email? I need to plan how many tables we can have and how many cards I need to prepare supplies for each table. Thanks loads and God Bless!
Oh wow Tami - I can't wait these look absolutely gorgeous! Just the bright colors to warm up a cold Autumn day! Makes me think of Bermuda for some reason - and lots and lots of lemonade - lol!
Thanks again - hugs - Jean
