CARD AND GIFT BOX

 

I originally saw this project a few years ago.  Sam Calcott had made several gifts with a Valentines theme for her friends.  I added my idea of making a wine theme with a small bottle of wine in the box. 

I used standard 65lb weight cardstock.  Background papers are from HSN designers.  The ephemera is from clip art on the internet.

ALTERED 'NEW YEARS' WOOD BLOCK

 

I designed this 'New Years' decoration using a 4'' x  4'' block of wood.  I painted it with an undercoat of Gesso and covered that with black paint.

The panels are from an old digital kit called 'Holiday Elegance'.  Champagne bottle is from Creative Fabrica on the internet. I glued one inch black beads on the bottom.
