Card Gift Box

Image
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.

Here is another set of cards for the auction. This uses Kristina Werners graphics. Hope there is no issue selling these since all the proceeds are going to charity. and the box

Where I have been....

I have not been doing challenges because I have been making card sets to donate to my daughters sister school in Africa. We are holding an auction. So I finally got around to taking pictures of the card sets and here is the first one - and the box it is going in. I will get the other gift sets uploaded as I get the photos edited and uploaded!

My latest project

I decided to make a gift for my mom-in-law. She is recovering from heart surgery. We are trying to convince her to come stay with us this summer for a month. ANYWAY... here is the wall hanging I made. I used a kit from Quick Quotes and added some additional items from my stash.

Your regularly scheduled programming....

was pre-empted by a phone call from a friend needing 5 two page layouts by this weekend. She called Sunday night - so I needed to balance work, had a work friend in from out of town with his wife and child so we had them over for dinner Monday night, Bellas family birthday party is tomorrow and this ROTTEN cold I have. Anyway the colors she told me to use were hot pink, blue (like crayon blue) and light yellow. Here are the five layouts I made -- mostly I used papers that Jamie sent me black and white ones by Imaginisce. With Bazzil and DCWV solids. I played with flowers and punches and ribbons. The idea is that they will be handing out white sheets for everyone to write on at the shower (and they will take pictures too) and add the photos --- the bride tends to like things a little simple (hmmmm not me! hehehe) so I tried to restrain myself a little -- I definately used my Layout Blueprints (I have both volumes) for inspiration. The pics arent the best but I snapped them Thursday morn...
