Wedding - Box card


I am loving making these little boxes & thought I would experiment with different types.  Here is one I made suitable for a wedding.  I will add the sentiment to the front panel later.








I have used centural pearl card in off white for the main box as it is lovely and sturdy & just covered the 3 flaps with Papermania Oyster Blush paper, which has a lovely sheen to match the card.

All the die cuts are in the pearl card apart from the lacy detailing on the daisy's which is vellum to give a delicate finish.

Dies used are:  Marianne hearts
Tattered Lace - Daisy
Cheery Lynn - Leafy flourish
Marianne - leaves
Magazine Freeby - Butterfly
the tiny flowers on the hearts are a papermania mini punch.

A Teenager at Last

This Commission was something a little different for me, all I was told was that the young lady concerned was beginning to enjoy fashion and particularly liked dresses.  This is what I came up with. I hope you like it.



I didn't want to make the mistake of producing a card that was too grown up so I kept the colours pastel and I think it looks young and fun.  I searched for dress templates but didn't find any suitable so I created this one myself from a large scalloped circle die, by cutting out sections then mountain & valley folding the skirt section. 

The backing  papers I have used are the papermania - spots & stripes capsule collection & for the dress, papermania  happy days, some tiny rose buds & organza ribbon to complete.  Letters & numbers are memory box and sentiment is LOTV.
