True Friend Card Box

Inspired by Andrea Walford...I decided to make my own set of cards, and this will be a class I will be teaching.....I love the Bali Breeze papers, the bright colors, the way the stamp sets go along with this designer double sided papers!! As I was sitting watching the NCAA game, UCLA vs Mississippi Valley, I decided to use the time to not just to watch the game, but to stamp and make up my card for a future class!

True friend, is the stamp set that I used, this one was colored in using Pumpkin Pie, Rose Red, and Old Olive markers on the stamp. I love the striped ribbons. They just add the perfect accents!

This one was washed out by my flash (sorry)...but I love the crisp colors against the white

This one was inspired by the card featured on Andrea's site...it was done by Carol Taggart. She's a fantastic stamper. I stamped the image on white cardstock, then I stamped it again on white paper, cut out the image, and masked it, and used the Artichoke ink to dab the outside of the 'medallion' image. It makes the image pop!

This is all the cards along with the envelopes inside the box. It has the boho blossom flower with the large JUMBO Eyelets and celery ribbon coming out to tie the box together. The Box was put together using these dimensions from this entry in my blog.

This is the box with all the cards inside......would this make a nice gift for a hostess for your stamp party..or for a friend that needs a special gift....or for you?


Hope this inspires you, like Andrea's inspired me!
