MILK CARTON TREAT BOX

 

        I created this 'Milk Carton Treat Box' using regular cardstock.  I was inspired by a tutorial by Sherry,  'The Posh Paper Lady'.  Her tutorial is HERE.  I created the ephemera by using images from clip art on the internet. I brought it into Photoshop Elements for coloring and sizing.

This is the back.  As you can see, designs go all the way around.   Box measures  2 1/2"  x  5 1/2".

Here's a second 'Treat Box'.  Same process.  The grass is a die from 

Honey Bee called 'Grass Border'.  Puppy is from the internet.  Doghouse and some of the ephemera come from a Snickerdoodle Designs kit called 'Puppy Love'.

Here's the back and some of one side.

This is a 'Mini Carton Treat Box'.  Measures about  1" x   2 1/2".

'CELEBRATION GARDEN' BLOCK

    

            I created this 'Celebration Garden Block' for the 'Anything Goes' competition at The Funkie Junkie Boutique Blog.  If you would like to play along you can find them HERE.

 It measures about 4" x  6" and is 2" deep.  Finished height is about 7".   All the patriotic images came from clip art on the internet.  The flowers are from my stash.  Original designer is unknown.

    

            I began by cutting up a  2" x  4"  into  6" lengths.  All the edges were painted with white acrylic paint and coated with mod podge for some shine.  The drilled holes are to support the flag and the flowers.  They are mounted on wrapped floral wire.

The sides of the block are covered with papers from a digital kit called '4th July' designed by Little Panda Digitals on Etsy.

Here's the back.  I painted the little wooden balls with red acrylic paint and coated with Mod Podge.

TRIPLE POP UP CUBE CARD

 

            I created this Triple Pop Up Cube Card using standard cardstock weight papers.  The background design papers came from browsing the internet looking at tapestry designs.  The flower are from my stash.    The birds are from clip art on the internet.

        

        I brought everything into Photoshop Elements and attached designs to my templates.  I did burnish all the edges with Distress Ink called Gathered Twigs.  I used a video by Lisa at Queen Bee Creations to get the measurements and directions.  You can find that HERE.

    

                                                                 This is the basic form.

    

                             Then I just started attaching all the templates, flowers and birds.
