As I have 4 daughters (!!) then they all have to have something either the same as or just as pretty as their other sisters, which can be challenging creating 4 of the same type of project but suitably different to reflect their tastes (and moods!) - one's inspiration doesn't flow easily sometimes after a hard day of work and looking after the little darlings! At least I find crafting relaxing and something to look forward to each day :)
So, here we go this is the last in the range for this year - ta dah!
Once again (you've guessed it) I have used the kraft box with basic grey cardstock this time and More Amore designer series papers, picking up the grey, blue and red cute little hearts pattern.
The paper bow is made scraps of paper cut at varying lengths and thenfolded over and layered on top of each other and are affixed in the centre with a tag from the sale-a-bration pretty petites sale-a-bration stamp set (free with orders over £45) stamped in raspberry ripple and then punched with the petite curly label sale-a-bration punch (free with orders over £45).
This is echoed with another of the petite pairs stamps that has cute little heart in the corner but which i have obliterated with a basic rhinestone that was too big - oops!! - but a girl can never have too big a bit of bling in my opinion ;)
Here's a closeup for more detail of the bow and stamp ..
The only issue I had with these boxes after I had made them was which one to give to which daughter and in the end had to let them choose from a hat; needless to say they all looked each others over very closely before deciding on their verdict ;)
