Wedding Box
Posted: Thursday, June 12th, 2008 | Comments
I’ve been calling this a ‘Wedding Box’ because it ended up more ‘frilly’ than I expected!
The box is actually a ‘take off’ of the 2-4-6-8 box… it is a 2-5-7-10 box and I have included the directions below (click the thumbnail!).
The sets used are ‘Leaves A La Carte" jumbo wheel, Carte Postale and Together Forever’. The paper is Sahara Sand and the ink is Always Artichoke.
Good luck! Click on the following thumbnail for the PDF of complete directions.
For Father “Rustic” Card
Posted: Wednesday, June 4th, 2008 | CommentsWell, I’m aware that this card is suspiciously like my Spring Song card, but I do like the color combination and the look of this type of card.
The card is River Rock with the Weathered background stamp in Close to Cocoa.
The image from the "For Father" set is a toolkit stamped in Staz-On and colored with Stampin’ Write Markers of the following colors: Creamy Caramel, Sahara Sand, Mellow Moss & More Mustard.
The layers behind the focal image are torn pieces of Chocolate Chip cardstock and a torn piece of Creamy Caramel cardstock (crimped).
Sponging helps the ‘rustic’ look. How’d I do?
