Card in a Box Style, feminine

Flower Shop Explosion Box Card

Happy New Year!

Flower Shop Explosion Box Card

I am loving making these explosion box cards if you haven’t noticed by now! They are so quick and easy and fun to make. All the cutting and scoring is done with the Stampin’ Trimmer.

This card is for my husbands cousin who is turning 26. I think she will love the colours of Wisteria Wonder, Blushing Bride and Pistachio Pudding. I used the Flower Shop Bundle from the current Annual Catalogue and the Papillon Butterfly Stamp set with the coordinating punch.

Don’t forget to have a look through your Holiday catalogue and if there is anything you’d be sorry to miss out on, you have until near the end of this month to order. Most of the range will retire after that. So don’t miss out.

Happy Stamping!

Card in a Box Style, feminine, Owl Punch

Explosion Box Card

Morning Stampers,

I want to share with you today, a card that a fellow demonstrator showed us last weekend ~ an explosion box card!

How cool are these?

I am loving this new card style and can see myself creating lots of them over the coming months.

This first one we made for my hubby’s birthday last Wednesday and he was super impressed when he pulled it out of the envelope…. yes you heard right, it folds flat and fits in an envelope!!!!

And you see those little monsters popping up out of the box, they are made with the owl punch!

Explosion Box Card

This next card I made for a dear friend of mine who lives in Tasmania and is a very talented lady, especially with her photography. I couldn’t send her any old card, so I thought she would appreciate something a little more special. I have used the Flower Shop Stamp Set and coordinating Pansy punch and the Papillon Potpourri Stamp Set and coordinating punches (Bitty & Elegant Butterfly) to create this one.

Explosion Box Card

I have had some interest in how these are made and so I am willing to do a class to show you just how quick and easy these are to make. If you would like to come along to a class, please comment below what day and times best suit.

Card from last night’s Workshop

Morning Stampers,

Today I want to share with you, a card that we made at a Workshop last night.

Among the attendees, we had some beginners through to advanced, so this was a card I created to suit any level of stamper!

IMG_3203

We had so much fun and many laughs along the way.

It was requested to make something using embossing, stamping and punching ~ this card uses all of those things as well as a new item, the clay flower!

We also decorated the inside of the card.
