Flower Fest and Box #2

So, I forget who showed this awesome idea at Convention this year, how to wrap the box with a "band" of cardstock, but I just love all the possibilities. I wanted to showcase some fabric to tie it up with instead of ribbon and I think the whole group of ladies was pretty impressed at how fast this box goes together from start to finish.

Supplies:

Stamps: Flower Fest

This is a card I will be showcasing at my sister's workshop next week. I love that I can show off our new Simply Scored! AND I will be making a matching envelope too.....I can't believe how easy this card is to make and I stayed away from trying it for so long because it looked so intimidating...not now with the scoring tool!

Out on a Limb double technique

Okay so I have to admit the layout is not my idea, but I changed up the colors and so now it is...lol I did this card for a THO workshop this past week and I had so much fun showing how to use the Simply Scored board and the Big Shot and embossed only the two ends. Then I stamped the limb in Soft Suede and the owl in Indigo Island then punched out More Mustard flowers from the Itty Bitty punch pack, and do you NOT just LOVE those teeny tiny silver brads? Then I pulled out the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set and stamped onto Lucky Limeade and punched out with the Word Window punch. Then I used our gorgeous Black Dotted Scallop ribbon.
