Altered Milk Carton Boxes - Holiday

Yep! You guessed right! A holiday version of the Altered Milk Carton Box. This time I used the Triple Layer punches to decorate these boxes. The Blossom Bouquet #122464 and the Doily Triple #122465. The triangle tree was made with the Petite Pennant Punch #122361 and embossed with Petals-A-Plenty Textured Embossing folder #116824.



The tags I used was from the set "Tags til Christmas" #121169-Clear and #120847-Wood. This set is so one of my favorites for the holiday. I used them last year for my tags and will be using them again this year :) Don't forget your baker's twine #123125 (Cherry Cobbler/White). The ribbons I used are the 5/8" satin ribbon. Works really well with these boxes. Just punch holes at the opening edges of these boxes then thread your ribbon.

Hmmmm.. what's next on these boxes... come check it out this week. To MAKE this boxes click HERE .

Altered Milk Carton Boxes

These boxes have been so popular since the 2011 SU! Convention. What a brilliant way to use the SU! Bigshot Milk Carton Die #117310. At first, I thought it would be hard to make them but I'm now additively making them :)..hihi.



As you can see, I'm making so many versions of them just to see how versatile designs can fit this lovely box.

TO MAKE THEM:
Just have 2 Milk Carton Die cut pieces and cut off the 4th side of each piece (the end side WITHOUT the little flap). Scorefold each piece and connect them together with crystal effects glue #101055 (the best glue out there) :)



I've tried many ribbons that would fit these boxes but found that the Organza Ribbon #114319 graced these boxes beautifully. Anything thinner than the 5/8" ribbon would not do justice to these boxes (my opinion :)) Try using the 5/8" Satin ribbons!!

You can also use the XL Tag Punch #119866 to cover up each side of the box as well as the Scallop Square punch #119884! The NEW Lace Ribbon Border #122362 can also be a beautiful embellishment.

Petite Pockets

Let's get back to business here. I've been making these little envelopes called petite pockets. It's made with the SU! Bigshot die "Petite Pockets". I don't know why they called it petite since it can hold a gift card in it and some trinkets. These cute "pocket" envelopes are so fun to make and here are more colors!



I missed my owl punch so I tried making some "Despicable Me" characters :) Isn't he so cute. I also used the NEW Hostess Stamp Set "Happiest Birthday Wishes" #122617-Clear with my Decorative Label Punch #120907 and also used XL Tag Punch#119866

Here's more with heat embossing technique. Lovely envelopes to hold money or gift card for wedding and birthday, too.

The Making of a Demonstrator

Hi! Today's going to be a non-SU share but it will be really interesting to watch. I guarantee you it's worth watching it. If you're a demonstrator, you would know how much it takes to make a video tutorial, so bear with me here.

I stumbled upon a very fresh and youthful video of how it would look and sound like to be a demonstrator as a kid! She's a dedicated crafter. You could see how much passion she reflects onto the tools and materials she uses. She is a true inspiration to Demonstrators like me. Thank you, "ducttapequeen00" of YouTube.

Birthday Card - Mojo Monday 203

Another Monday and it's Mojo time :) I usually play the contest every first of the month, but then again, time didn't catch up on me :( Anyway, I just had to use my Birthday Bakery stamp set today. I know it's just so last year's Hostess Set but I'm still stuck with it. Love this set.

This time I used the new Textured embossing folders, Stripes #123128 and Houndstooth #123134. The Stripe embossing texture on chocolate Chip CS looked like a bar of chocolate, ain't it?



Also used the new Doily Triple Punch #122465 and Lace Ribbon Border #122362. Cupcakes, Laces and Doilies really go well together. Makes it more delectable.

So here's a yummy goody for you. Enjoy!!!!

New BLOG Banner - Up, Up and Away

I'm so excited about my new blog banner. The design all began with 2 cute punch art frogs. Then, I was going to set them up in a pond back drop but figured that it may be to much green around. Since we have all our new IN COLORS, I just said, why not just situate the cute frogs in a colorful environment. Then the balloons came into mind. Why not just have them ride in a balloon, up in the sky :)

I used the "Up, Up and Away" stamp set #122757- clear; #122755- Wood. The New colorful embossing powders are also helpful. It gave a very bright color finish on the balloons using the 2-step technique.

Also, I used the Tasteful Trim XL Bigz Die #120983 for the ropes and embossed it with the new Textured Embossing Folder #123128 (slanted). It just looks perfect for the balloon ropes!

Anyway, I hope you like it! :)
