FAUX WOOD GIFT CRATE

 



This 'Faux Wood Gift Crate' is made from a sturdy double strength cardstock.  It measures about  4 1/2'' x  6 1/2'' and is  4'' deep.  The box was originally created by Sam Calcott at 'Mixed Up Craft'.  I filled it with shredded paper.  The sunflowers are from a digital kit by Etsy designer Laurie Furnell.  I enlarged them and attached them on a wire and put them in a seedling pot in one of the corners. 


This is the view from the back.  All the flowers are double sided.


...and there you have it.  Thanks for stopping by...





SHADOW BOX TUNNEL CARD


I originally saw this large  8'' x  8'' Tunnel Card on Sam Calcott's blog.  I was inspired to make one of my own.


This is a view of the side.  The birds are from clip art on the internet.  Flowers are made with a mix of tiny silk flowers and a floral die.  Lady bugs are from Ephemera Collection.

COUNTRY GARDEN BOX

 


             This Country Garden Box measures about  5'' x  5 1/2''.  I made three inch windows on the sides with a circle die.  Butterflies are mounted on clear pieces of acetate. 


The grass is cut from a die set.  Bees are from my Ephemera Collection.


                                To make these giant flowers on the top I used a die from Tiny Tattered Florals by Tim Holtz.  I brought them into my Scan-n-Cut machine and enlarged them to four inches.  Leaves are a die.

BOXED PHOTO ALBUM

 

              This is the box that holds the strip of photos.  It measures about  4 1/2'' x  6'' and is 1'' deep.  I added some glitter to the center of the flowers.  Leaves are from a floral die.  Flowers are from Etsy designer Laurie Furnell.



The accordion style card is from a video made by designer Lisa Curio.  The background papers were found on the internet.  Photos are my own.

TUNNEL CARDS

 



I was inspired to make this series of  4'' x  4''  Tunnel Cards after seeing a tutorial by The Paper Pixie.  They are all made with standard weight cardstock.  The ephemera  in this Birthday one is from a digital kit by Etsy designer Laurie Furnell. 



Side view. 


The Steampunk ephemera is from a digital kit by  Karen at 'Karen's Scraps and Graphics'.

Front of card.  Ephemera is from Laurie Furnell again.  I added a little glitter to add some sparkle.

Simple back for sentiment to be written in.

I have made a video tutorial on my You Tube Channel if you would like to make a card.  You can find that
