BOXED CARD SET #3

I recently made ten boxes of cards for our Altrusa Club convention. I came up with four different sets of cards. We gave them away as door prizes. This is the third set.

These are the tools and supplies that I used making these boxes and cards.

Quickutz Flower & Chocolate Kiss dies, Sizzix Butterfly, Hawaiian Flower & Circle dies, Cuttlebug Flower die, OFC Card Boxes (just decorate & fold-up), Staedtler Water Color Crayons, Ice Stickles Glitter, Glue dots, & Ribbon.
#10 white envelopes and various printed paper.

I made two boxes of this set of cards - each had 6 cards, one each of 6 different designs.

The card boxes were colored with the water color crayons.

Then I pulled one card design to each box front, so the

card boxes looked different from the outside, but they really had the same cards inside!

Pink Embossed Large Candy Bar Card

This hidden treat was so easy to make! They made great Valentine cards for everyone.

This is a regular size candy bar.

I have used the hidden treat cards as wedding shower guest gifts as well.

I used smooth hot pink coverstock and embossed it with a Cuttlebug folder. Then I punched an upside down small heart (McGills) for the candy pull ribbon to go through. I used a more durable ribbon for the pull. Once the card was glued together I finished it with fancy ribbon and a Cuttlebug die flower with Ice Stickles center.


Thanks for looking!

Bunny Candy Bar Card

This is a little treat card that I made family and co-workers for Easter. It uses the snack or small size Candy Bar.

I embossed the maroon paper with a Cuttlebug folder, cut it out and punched a hole at the top to make a bag tag. Then I attached it to the candy bar using staples (this candy bar had paper on both ends, sometimes you have to glue dot the candy bar to the tag if it doesn't).

I die cut the Bunny using the Sizzix Bunny with Flower out of brown smooth cardstock and colored him with Steadler Water Color crayons. I used black gloss fabric paint for his eyes and topped it with black sparkle fabric paint.

I used a Sizzix tag die to cut the ivory cardstock.

McGill daisy punches were used for all the flowers & glitter for their centers.

The word stamp is from The Stampin' Place and is stamped in black and embossed with clear powder.

Thanks for looking!

CHRISTMAS CARD

I LOVE CHRISTMAS CARDS!

This one was real easy. I used loads of glitter!

My husband said he thinks I feed him glitter... I told him not to be silly, glitter is much too expensive for that!

For years, I have glittered paper then sealed it with a glue or glaze to set in the glitter. When it's dry I die cut it. That is what the Sizzix diecut "Dress up Penguin's" little face & belly are cut from.

The Sizzix diecut word "JOY" is cut from glitter paper from

Target.

The Sizzix diecut Scallop card has been embossed with a Cuttlebug snowflake folder and I used Ice Sticles on the snowflakes, the cheeks and the beak. I used Polymark black gloss fabric paint on the eyes. Fabric paint works wonderful on paper. I used a Hobby Lobby Snowflake punch on the inside of the card.

MOTHER'S DAY CARD

I made this card for my sweet mother-in-law for Mother's Day. It matched the real potted flowers that we sent her.


The flowers are Cuttlebug die cuts and that I colored with water color crayons. The leaves are Sizzix die cuts cut in green. The green buds are Spellbinders, cut and glued together. The vase in made of a dark brown textured card stock and secured only with the ribbon. The inside of the card is off white cardstock had a gold embossed Mother's Day stamped on it (I took the pictures before I stamped!).

Flower Pot cards always turn out great no mater what kind of flower you use!
