Right now, did you know...that you could own something from the UPCOMING 2013-14 Idea Book and Catalog? Yep, sure can! It's the Spring Surprse Promotion and you can see the details right here:

I started out using the Fancy Favor Die out of River Rock cardstock and cutting it out and slicing off about 2" from the top part of it so it's much shorter than the original box would be.  And then cut 1"x 3" (10 of these) strips of River Rock cardstock and running them through the Woodgrain Embossing folder and sponging the edges of each one with Chocolate Chip ink.  I then trimmed them to resemble a "picket" fence and adhered them onto the die cut box.  I cut a strip of River Rock 3/4" x10" for the handle and attached them with brads.  I wrapped the whole thing with Rose Red Seam Binding Ribbon and tied into a bow.  I stamped the scallop flower in Rose Red ink and punched out with the 7/8" Scallop Punch and then stamped the same stamp with Summer Starfruit and punched out just the words with the 1/2" Circle punch and popped it up with a Dimensional onto a piece of Print Poetry DSP using the Large Tag Punch and adhered it to the bow with some White Baker's Twine.  Not sure who it's going to go to, but I like it! I actually some other ideas for some different boxes!
