** 5/7/17 Winner at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends! **
Hi everyone! Happy Friday! And yep, you guessed it… I’m doing the happy dance just like I do every Friday, lol! Today is my post day on the Dare 2B Artzy blog and I’m happy to share my DT inspiration project using Flowers for Mom stamp set, Paradise ink and Blissful Bloom paper.
I created a fun boxed set of 6 note cards. This is the second set of these I’ve created and I can’t tell you how much fun they are! My inspiration originally came from a tutorial I found for a set created on a smaller scale, however, I adjusted the measurements to accommodate regular A2 sized cards. I’m happy to share these instructions on my “Freebies” page (right sidebar). My version has a magnet closure under the flap and I also decorated the back of the box.
I used both sides of this gorgeous double-sided paper along with the strip across the top. I always say that you should keep that strip on the top of all the Dare 2B Artzy papers because it coordinates perfectly and makes a great embellishment!
I designed the ‘hello’ note cards to coordinate with the box, using both sides of the paper and the decorative strip. I added a stamped sentiment on a punched ticket ‘tab’ tucked under the strip along with some flat-back pearls.
And here’s the back of the box. Loving how this turned out!
