Two more boxes

After I had made the box I in the last post my girls made some of their own. My younger daughter A11 used the snowman stamp from Festive Favourites and coloured with Stamping Markers, then used bold ribbons to decorate her white box.

L13, my older daughter used some Cerise designer paper with real red cardstock to make a small box which she filled with red and white candy canes and peppermints. Her tag and box motif were done with stamps from Polka dots and Paisley.

Tomorrow my daughter is playing violin in a fundraising concert for an orphanage in Cambodia. I made this set of cards to be sold in a silent auction after the concert. As you can see I have had fun with the Cerise designer paper. None of these cards are embossed, although you could add a little sparkle with embossing if you wanted to.

Supplies:

Stamps: Perfect Presentation, Many Merry Messages, Flaky Friends, Festive Favorites, Christmas Cardinal
Inks: Real Red
Cardstock: Real Red, Very Vanilla, Cerise d.p.
Also: Red grosgrain ribbon, Twill tape, Red brads, Star Punch
