Card in a box

Hi stampers,

Welcome to another post.  I wanted to share my love with you for these card in a box ideas.  As you have seen they have been all over the internet lately.  I originally found the instructions on Monica Gales blog Here when she did a Christmas snowflake one.  I cased this and made about 12.  I was hooked.  Second attempt but not the last was these 21st ones.  I had the idea in my head for a while and bought the Stampin Up set "Another great year" just for this purpose. I used some strips of clear window sheet to make the 21 appearing that it is floating.

Next I am going to tackle a Mother's Day one.  Stay tuned.

Post it note holders

Hi Stampers,

I have been CASEing again and found this great post it note holder on Pinterest.  The original artist is Carol Payne, she has also added a calendar to the top instead of the banner that I used.  I have added a box made from the Envelope Punch board which will turn this into a great gift for someone.

Stamps used: petal parade, perfect pennants, petite petals

Card stock: pistachio pudding, cameo coral, basic black, coastal cabana, whisper white

DSP: sweet sorbet

Inks: cameo coral, coastal cabana, summer starfruit

Accessories: petite petals, bird builder and scallop circle punches, banner dies, scallop embossing folder, big shot, dazzling details, envelope punch board

To make box start with a piece of card stock 9" x 9" score and punch using the envelope punch board at firstly 3 1/2" then 4 1/2". Turn 180 degrees then repeat.  On the opposite two sides, line each score line up with the marker score then punch.  To finish use the corner rounder punch on the board to give a professional look.  This box can be keep closed with a belly band.
