POP UP BOX CARD


I created this card using Graphic 45 Floral Shoppe Collection.  The flowers are from a great digital series that 'Fred She Said' put together.  You can find that site HERE.



The card itself is by Sabrina Radeck at Splitcoast Stampers.  You can find the tutorial HERE.

GIRAFFE


This giraffe is the first animal in 'My Menagerie'.  It is about 7"x 1 3/4".  Made of cardstock and mounted on a slab of chipboard that measures 1 1/2" x 3".


I found the giraffe on line and brought it into Elements 15 for coloring and sizing.  After cutting it out I mounted it on the chipboard and attached the wheels.


I used Tattered Florals dies by Tim Holtz for grass.

SLIDE AND POP DRAW BOX



I created this 'pop up' slide box using scraps left over from 'Curiosity Shop' collection from Graphic 45.  I placed pop dots under the fancy cut images to make them stand out better. 
I am entering it in the Frilly and Funkie January Challenge for a chance to win $25 for a shopping spree at the 'Funkie Junkie Boutique'!
You can visit their blog HERE.


This is the box with the tray pulled out.
The box measures 3 1/2" x 7 1/2" and is 1/2" deep.  The instructions that I followed were from Sam at 'mixedupcraft.com' and can be found HERE.


This is the backside.



This is a second box I made as a 'Feel Better' gift for my friend who just had knee replacement surgery.  I put a large candy bar inside.
I used the same scraps from my stash.



Here it is opened up with sentiment showing.


And here's the back.

Pages are held together with 2" metal rings.


This is a one year album.  So pages are labeled for each month.


Background pages are made by printing designs from and unknown kit on cardstock.


Embellishments are from clip art images found on the internet.

LIGHTED LANTERN


I created this 'Lighted Lantern' by altering a Patron tequila bottle.  Medium sized.  I used a string of white twinkie lights inside.  The bottle stopper is a converted dresser pull handle.


I used E6000 glue to adhere several brass metal embellishments.  The colored plastic beads are melted pony beads.



I then used a blend of multi colored mini glass beads to fill in the empty spaces and added a bow.

GIFT HOLDER BOX


I created this 'Gift Box' on round legs using the digital kit 'This Is Me November' by Karen at Snickerdoodle Designs.  You can find that kit HERE.
The box measures 4 1/2" x  6" and is 2 3/4" deep.


I painted the 1/2" beads with acrylic paints.  The flowers are cut out of cardstock using background colors from the kit.  Die is Graphic 45 Flower Metal Dies.


There is a wonderful tutorial by Ginger at My Sisters Scrapper that I used for measurements.  I brought the measurements into Photoshop Elements 15 to use as templates using the wonderful backgrounds from 'This Is November" kit.
You can get the tutorial HERE.


Here's the back.

APRON BOX


This Apron shaped box is made from a Bigz 'XL' die by Lori Whitlock for Sizzix.  The box is made of black cardstock.  The patterned background is also cardstock.  


I used a kit called 'Ginger Magic' by Snickerdoodle Designs.  It has been retired but the angel and other graphics have always been a favorite.  These are the recipe cards for the inside.


Here's the back.
