15 years

I can't believe it has been FIFTEEN years since my first nephew was born!

Damon's birthday is TODAY!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAMON!

I wanted to make him a little something for his birthday, 

and this is part of it:

A BOX CARD!

I made this car box card with a digital paper/elements pack from 

Kelleigh Ratzlaff Designs

called

PLAYFUL MINI KIT

(and it is available today for a discount!!!)

The pattern paper, cards, and road signs all came from the kit.

AND, I stamped the 15 with a stamp from 

Unity Stamp Co's Flirty Flowers set.

A Flood is Coming!

I wish there was some water in my near future. 

Our crops could sure use some right about now.

We had many storms go through the area, but none really let loose on our farm,

if they actually went over the farm at all...

Back to why you are here...

Today, Kelleigh Ratzlaff Designs

released another fabulous design

for DOLLAR DAYS

over at Pixels&Co.

This one is called

Arc Box Template.

Isn't it cute?

Here is what I put together with the template:

For the paper, I printed a pattern paper from 

Forever Friends

(also by Kelleigh Ratzlaff Designs and in the Dollar Section this month!!!)

I took the grey polka dot paper and color selected a flower from the embellishments pack and made the paper to match. I wanted a nice bright pink paper and loved the polka dots from this pack.

I printed it on photo paper to make it nice and shiny!

All the elements are from the

Forever Friends Embellishments Pack.

(also in the Dollar Section!!!)

I print and cut all the embellishments with my Silhouette SD.

Thanks for stopping by and checking out my newest project!

Pixels & Company.

Yesterday, she released this beautiful paper set ~
Forever Friends Paper Pack

AND I am lucky enough to be on her creative team,

so I got to work with them first!

Here is what I came up with:

This box was so stinking easy to put together with the Print and Cut feature with my Silhouette machine!

I put the flowers in the program, traced them, printed them, and cut them out.

No slow scissor cutting for this girl!

Aren't the papers and embellishments fabulous?

I just love these fun boxes! 

They are so easy to put together once you know what you are doing!

I am trying to get a head start on those sappy cards to put in the boutique!

I used my Silhouette to cut out the little hearts and to make the "love" sentiment. 

I don't remember which font I used, but I welded the letters together in the program.

I used acetate to capture all the hearts and layered the love on top. 

I sewed it all with my new machine.

The twine is from my online shop HERE.

GROWING IN UNITY 2013 - DAY 3

We have reached half way!

Day Three of Five!

And just 4 more days until my birthday...

And for today I have a gift box:

The box was cut with my Silhouette SD.

I used a template from Kelleigh Ratzlaff called

Hour Glass Box.

I used two different stamp sets for this project.

I stamped the darker layer with Versamark ink with the biggest flower from

BLOSSOM STACKERS.

The Sentiment frame is from the same set.

I bought that set a LONG while ago (like a year!), and just NOW got around to breaking it out!

The main image and sentiment are from WISHING YOU JOY.

I really love this Itty Bitty set.

(stay tuned or Friday... You WILL see this set again!)

I stamped the image in white and then used a light colored copic marker to add some depth to the flowers.

This little box is so prefect to fill with candy and given to someone for a birthday or the like.

The template is so simple to use, weather you are using an electric die cutting machine, or print and cutting by hand. 

Thanks for visiting my blog, and don't forget to leave a comment for a chance to win TWO Itty Bitty's!!! (just think, you could get the flower and sentiment set that I used today... for free!)

That's the end to my WEDNSDAY.

HAPPY HUMP DAY PEOPLE!
