ROLL UP TREAT BOX


This is a series of four boxes glued together to make one 4 1/2" x  4 1/2" square box with a handle.  It stands about 7" tall.  The patterned paper is from a wonderful  Etsy store called 'Just My Side Hustle'.  You can find the site HERE.


The tutorial to glue all these boxes together to make the box was made by Sam at 'Mixed Up Craft'.  You can find that HERE.


All four boxes open the same way.


Close up of the embellishment on top of box.  The dainty bird is from a digital kit called 'Spring-a-Ling' by Snickerdoodle Designs.  You can find it HERE.  I brought it into Photoshop and altered the tail feathers and recolored a bit.  It is resting on a nest of greenery made with a variety of dies.

...There you have it.  Thanks for stopping by...

TEEPEE FOLD CARD


I created this free standing card as my entry to 'The Funkie Junkie Boutique Blog' May Challenge called 'On Man!'.  The idea was to create something with a more masculine look.  You can find more information on this HERE.  


This is the side.  The third side is blank so as to be used for a sentiment.  Sam at Mixed Up Crafts has a wonderful video on how to make this Teepee.  You can find that HERE


I used glitter papers as well as papers from Graphic 45's 'A Proper Gentleman Collection'.  All the edges were burnished with Gathered Twigs Distress ink by Tim Holtz.  This Teepee measures 7" x  5 1/2".


I got the truck from clip art on the internet and attached it using pop-ups.  The rest of the metal embellishments and the rosette came from my stash. 


Here's a close up of the tiny rocks and beads I used in the corners and in the back of the truck.
