Magnolia Lane card's and box

Today I am sharing a box and several cards that fit inside. This would make a great gift for someone.  I have a total of 8 cards and envelops in it, but I think you could get 10-12 total.

For the box - The base is a piece of Basic Black - 8 1/2" x  10" score on all 4 sides at 2".  Cut all 4 ends and fold.  The lid is a piece of Petal Pink - 6 5/8" x 8 1/8" score on all 4 sides at 1".  Cut all 4 ends and fold.

I decorated the top with a piece of Basic Black and then a piece of Magnolia Lane DSP.  Before attaching the DSP attach a piece of Organdy Striped Ribbon.  To make the flower on top I punched 6-8 out of Whisper White with the Perennial Flower punch and die cut 6-8 of the large flower with the Magnolia Memory Dies.  I also die cut 2-3 of the center flower.  I sponged the flower pieces on the edge with Petal Pink and the center with So Saffron.  I then just started layering the pieces with glue dots until you have the size you want.

Now onto the cards I put inside.  I wanted to use the Magnolia Lane DSP for all the cards and envelops.

Wouldn't this make a great hostess or thank you gift for someone?  Next week I will be sharing a Christmas version I made with the same paper, but altered the size of the box to not be as tall.  It only holds 4-6 cards.

Tissue Paper Embossing

Hello Stampers,

This was scheduled to post a couple weeks ago and I saved it but forget to hit publish.  So enjoy!!

I have been working on watercolor and different techniques lately, so today I am post the Tissue Paper Embossing Technique or some call it Faux Silk Technique.

We did this technique at one of our Stampin' Palooza's.  Click here to see that post.  Click here to see the detailed instructions on how to do this technique.  I did this one a little different, I stamped on the tissue paper, instead of dragging in through a watercolor wash.

I used Balmy Blue, Blueberry Bushel and Smokey Slate, and embossed with Versamark and Silver Embossing Powder.

I know it's hard to see everything I stamped because some of it disappeared when I embossed.  I used random stamps from the Beauty Abounds stamp set.  I die cut the Thanks out of the center of the Basic Black layer 3 times to give it a little lift.  Colored the butterfly from the Butterfly Elements (free with a $50.00 purchase before S&T) with Blueberry Bushel.

Die cut the Balmy Blue piece with the Rectangle Stitched Framelits, and attach all layers.
