Posy Boxes

Yesterday a friend and I got together to make treat boxes for her daughter’s bridal shower.  Such a cute bride – and she’s using Pool Party as one of her colors!  We used the Pop Up Posies Designer Kit and the Fancy Favor die to make 14 of these for the event.  Even with a lot of chatting, laughing and eating chocolate – it only took us 2 hours to knock them out. 

Everything is included in the kit except the box, adhesive and shimmer spray.  We used 2 kits – which was perfect because we each got to keep on of the darling Just For You stamp sets!  (don’t you love the font!) 

Hugs, Fran

A Mix of Mixed Bunch

Here’s a case of a card in Stampin Success demonstrator’s magazine done two ways.  Which one do you like best?

Here’s something else I did with this set.  Since I’ve been doing some wedding samples and the bride wants bright, vibrant colors for her invites, I did a set with Mixed Bunch.  Understand that there is no info on these – just the bases!  Use your imagination

Enjoy!  Hugs, Fran

Upsy Daisy Flip

I’m interrupting the sneak peeks to share a sample I did for a friend who’s daughter is getting married this summer.  She (the bride) wants a card for her “save the date” magnets.  I have to say, I think these magnets are very cool – stick it on my refrigerator and then it’s in front of me all the time and maybe I’ll remember!  She wanted lots of color and something fun so I made a flip-flop card.  Her colors are red/turquoise – we’re still working on those – so for the sample I used Cherry Cobbler and Baja Breeze.

Open it and the magnet will fit in the center-

(That last picture is kind of wonky!)
