I absolutely love the Beautiful You stamp set from the new spring/summer catalogue by Stampin’ Up! The images of the 3 ladies in the stamp set are so versatile and classic and as a bonus, there are lots of great sentiments included in the stamp set as well. What’s not to love…..
Over the weekend I have been making these cute little boxes to give as table gifts to the ladies attending my classes in February.
To make the boxes I used Whisper White cardstock cut to 9” by 4½”. I scored the cardstock at 1”, 4”, 5” and 8” on the long side and 1” and 3½” on the short side using the Simply Scored Scoring Tool. I cut up the short scorelines to form a pizza style box and adhered the tabs using FastFuse adhesive. I stamped a small panel of Whisper White cardstock with an image from the Beautiful You stamp set using Momento Tuxedo Black ink. The sketchy watercolor effect dress is a stamp also included in the stamp set. I used Bermuda Bay, Melon Mambo or Daffodil Delight ink pads to colour the lady’s dress then added a scattering of tiny hearts, using a stamp from the Any Occasions stamp set (available for free with a £45 order until the 31st March 2017) and the same 3 colours. The Whisper White panel was then backed with a layer of the same colour as the sketchy dress, i.e. Bermuda Bay, Melon Mambo or Daffodil Delight cardstock and added to the box with Dimensionals.
I love this box which co-ordinates really well with the 3 projects we will make in the February classes. I hope my ladies like them.
