Sweet Ice Cream Treat Box


I made this sweet little treat box using the Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper.  I used Purple Posy Cardstock for the box base and then wrapped a piece of Ice Cream Corner DSP around the box.



Details: 
  • For the box base, cut  piece of Purple Posy Cardstock measuring 6" x 5 1/2"
  • 6" side at the top of your trimmer, score at 1 1/2" and 4 1/2"
  • 5 1/2" side at the top of your trimmer, score at 1 1/2" and 4"
  • Cut up to the score lines as shown... trim the box flaps and turn in the flaps and glue
  • Cut a piece of Ice Cream Corner DSP measuring 3 1/8" x 8 1/2" and wrap around your box
  • I used DSP paper scraps to wrap around the Hershey Nuggets inside

















 

Stampin With Scraps: Hydrangea HIll Designer Series Paper


For today's Stampin With Scraps card, I took my Hydrangea Hill Designer Series Paper scraps and my Layering Circles Dies and cut out a bunch of circles.  I arranged the circles and popped up the one in the middle with the greeting.  The "wishing you your best year yet" sentiment is from the Best Year Stamp Set.










Simple Sunday Happy Birthday Card.. Sweet Strawberry Stamp Set


Today I am sharing a simple Happy Birthday card using the Sweet Strawberry Stamp Set.  The "Happy Birthday You Sweet Thing" sentiment and the flowers are both from the Sweet Strawberry Stamp Set.  The strawberry is the star of the show for that stamp set, but let's not forget about the pretty little flowers.  I am loving the color combination of new in color, Fresh Freesia with Basic Black and Smoky Slate.
