INK IT! STAMP IT! BLOG HOP - 3D PROJECT

Welcome to the Ink It! Stamp It! Blog Hop. This month we are sharing 3D projects. You may have arrived here from seeing the lovely and talented Amy Koender's project if you're hopping along already. If you started here, welcome and please make sure to visit all the Design Team's blogs, the full line up below will guide you through all the projects. My 3D project is a little box! It is the same size as the Mini Pizza Boxes so holds cards and envelopes 7.6 x 7.6 cm (3" x 3") in size. I made the bottom of the box in Whisper White Cardstock then created a sleeve in paper from the Twinkle Twinkle Designer Series paper. The dies are from the Stitched Labels Framelits and you may notice that the bottom one is smaller than the original. I managed to make it smaller by adjusting where I put the cutting pads on the Big Shot. It didn't match up perfectly but I've managed to cover it up with the sentiment and twine! The sentiment is from the Sti...

OSAT BLOG HOP | I NEED A HERO

  Today I'm sharing my projects for the OSAT Blog Hop! This month our theme is "I Need A Hero" and I'm featuring cards made using products from the new 2018 Holiday Catalogue. My projects are gifts for two of my daughter's teachers who recently took teams away for a football tournament. They looked after them, encouraged and supported them and took time away from their lives and families to do so. Also after spending two hours yesterday at Parent/Teacher Interviews I am humbled by their dedication and enthusiasm to teach.   This cute crate is from the Wood Crate Framelits and uses paper from the Wood Textures Designer Series Paper. The mini cards and envelopes fit perfectly into this little crate!   I bundled up four cards and envelopes into a cellophane bag and added the thank you tag which is from the Stitched All Around Bundle.         The paper for these cards is from the Festive Farmhouse Designer Ser...
