Hi crafty friends!! I hope you are somewhere cool, cuz we have had nothing but heat for some time now!
The cards in this month's kit, "Sweeter with You", are all adorable!! It is very hard for me to select a favorite, and this is from someone who doesn't even like strawberries!!
Kit info:
Craft sweet handmade cards featuring sun-kissed strawberries and breezy gingham.
• Makes 8 cards: 2 each of 4 designs with 8 coordinating envelopes• Precut paper pieces and vellum accents• Hand-painted card base designs• Coordinating colors: Garden Green (Classic Stampin’ Spot), Granny Apple Green, Pool Party, Poppy Parade, Strawberry Slush, Timid Tiger
Here are the cards as designed:
Now, I love making boxes out of the card bases, and I haven't done it in a while, so here is my alternate project:
I did stamp the flowers onto the box, like the kit suggested for the card. I used the add-on dies, Circle of Seasons, item #167277, to cut the circle and to cut the "Hello" out of one of the kit pieces. The strawberries & flower were from the kit. The only non-kit item was the White cardstock for the circle.
Thanks for hopping along with us!! Let's check out the rest of the alternate projects by clicking the links on the list below:
Until next time...
Happy craftin'!
