Hello...another quiet day at home. My hubby is out fishing again and daughter still in her adorable Mickey Mouse pj's watching Peter Pan...so fun! I did a bit of cleaning in my craft room today, some major clean up and reorganization, it really felt so good. Not much got tossed out but I am happy with the results for now at least. I finished up a bunch of little projects sitting on my desk too and that is where this cute little card box comes in. During last month's PTI blog hop, Irma from Craftmates made these fabulous cards and even more amazing little boxes filled with note cards. She included the link to Jennifer McGuire's tutorial on how to make these and you can see the video here. She uses the We R Memory's Envelope Punch board that I have had sitting on my book shelf for longer than I am willing to admit. So I finally dusted it off (and yes it did need a bit of dusting) and went to work. So I finished up a set of Washi Tape cards and stuffed my fun card box and then added a bit of decorations and done! Thank you so much for taking time to stop by...enjoy the rest of your weekend!
Oh, I can see that you did have fun today, and I love your cards an their sweet box. I see you are putting your sequins and washi tape to good use, and I am tremendously jealous of all your tapes. What a nice gift those cards will make.
ReplyDeleteMy little one is in his pajamas too! It has been pouring rain all day and I too have been doing a bit of re-organization of my craft room and enjoyed reading a book for a wee bit too! Rainy day Sundays are the best! Your card set is lovely! I will need to peek at the video and try it myself one day soon! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderfully fun and pretty project! Love the purple box and the sweet flower trims!
ReplyDeleteSounds like my kind of day. Love this beautiful group of cards Kim. I see you are getting some good use out of your tapes.
ReplyDeleteKim I just love your card and your day sounds like it was heavenly. I am in love with your washi sequins cards {inset CASE you here} I managed to get to my craft room in the afternoon for a half hour and then again after midnight--no fun.
ReplyDeletewhat a very productive day for your - don't you LOVE when the DH goes out for a while! I really need to get my room cleaned up - I hardly have any open workspace at the moment! Love this beautiful set of cards with the colorful washi tape Kim - and that little box to hold them is adorable!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a marvelous day you had to play! Your card & gift box are awesome! Beautiful and thoughtful; whoever you present these to will be over-the-moon delighted! Isn't the envelope punch board amazing. I'm totally in love with mine! Thanks for the reminder about Jennifer's video on making the boxes: on my 'must do' list for sure! Hope you're having a marvelous Monday; as marvelous as you've made mine! Hugs~c
ReplyDeleteWhat an stunning gift box, Kim ... and equally gorgeous washi-and-sequin cards inside it! Like you were, I'm feeling the need to clear up and organise my craft space ... must be spring coming! Now, where's that pause button? Anita :)
ReplyDeleteAdorable!
ReplyDeleteI am SO gonna make some of those boxes...
I even pinned a pin on how to make the "box "envelopes for bulky cards using the punch board...
so excited about that! :)
What a frickin fandorable set of cards and gift box, Kim. It's not easy reaching the keyboard from down here on the floor!! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteAwesome washi cards! Seeing your vibrant creations has me thinking that it is high time I actually purchased some of this 'stuff'! Beautiful gift box Kim! LOVE the purple!
ReplyDeleteLOVE these, Kim! I bought some more Washi even though I hardly use it, so now I have an idea of something to do! Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteKim, your cards are just lovely!
