Card Gift Box

Using the Love from Lizi May 2018 card kit, I created this gift box full of mini cards. These measure 4 - 1/4" square. These were sized so they could fit in a regular envelope. But then, of course, I decided to handmade matching envelopes anyway. I used Neenah Solar White 120lb for the card bases. And a little something on the insides too - because - I can't seem to help myself.

OK - I missed the last TWO! of these so I am taking no chances on what looks like another busy work week. SO here is my entry for Miracle on 34th Street. I know this line is not in the movie (and that the little girls name is Susan in the movie) but this is what I always think of when I watch this movie. The reference "Yes Virginia There is a Santa Claus comes from a child writing to the Sun Newpaper and the editor answering with the spirit of the season. The card uses Bazzil Paper and Ribbon I forget the patterned paper brand. The Santa stamp is from Oriental Trading and the Letters are Studio G wooden letters. This is colored in with a combination of Tim Holtz inks (with the SU blender pen), Koh-i-nor pencils with mineral spirits and liquid applique. Brads, floss and a decorative eyelet round it out.

I am just LOVING these challenges. This week is Nightmare Before Christmas what a fun movie for a challenge. I went for a 5x7 card for this one so I would have lots of room to play. I used Bazzill paper, Tim Holtz stamps (swirls and lines on the tree) Clear embossing powder (it has a little black in it too that makes it silvery) I used my new dimensional pearls on the tree and Tim Holtz ink for some shading. Also misc. brads etc for the tree. The inside of the tree is 4 layers of UTEE with the swirl stamp pressed in it. Well here is the card:
