3D Thurs Beautiful Autumn Pumpkin Box.
3D Thurs Beautiful Autumn Ohhh I am super excited to share… It is my turn this week!! Using the Nested Treat Box from the Sept-Dec Mini Catalog. Todays 3D Thurs Beautiful Autumn Pumpkin Box is soo stinkin cute. Here we go.. Starting off with the boxes. Guys, I have a TIP to start off. Well, two… First, feel the box. There is a smooth almost plastic feeling side, that is the inside. The rough is the outside. Second, the tabs need to be on the inside of the box. These boxes are food safe (the coated inside). Shimmer Spritzer, OHHH YES!!! Don’t know what that is… I give you instructions…

Background Created with Just Ink pads
yes, Created with Just Ink pads. I want to share how this background design was created with just ink pads and shimmer spritzer. So grab your favorite ink colors, some Whisper White cardstock, make a Shimmer Spritzer (link) in complimentary color and let’s do this!!

So you can see why, just a “simple” card for my mom… will NOT do! Let’s start with the pieces… Using several punches for this card. The small bloom punch from the 2020 Annual Catalog. However at the moment I do not have…

More from the bits and pieces
Believe it or not… Here is more cards from all those bits and pieces… However, I am getting down to the parts that do not want to go together. I am thinking that that there are only two or three more. We will see tomorrow. Ohhh, yes I did!! I know you can see that shimmer on that Poppy. The shimmer paint spritzer, of course. No NO need for an intervention. I promise!! Similarly, did you notice the “ribbon stack” used for a background?? How?? VersaMark added to any color cardstock, picks up the color! Note: that blue twine… Left over from our science experiments. Died Ribbon Looking for your…

Girls Night Birthday
Ohhh, I so enjoy girl’s night!! And who does NOT need a Birthday card?? I know I sure do… getting geared up for #imbringingbirthdaysback. However, for this month BOTH of the cards would go either way. Both are for winter birthdays. All I am missing is the snow!! Yes, I did say that four letter word!! SNOW!!
