Another challenge at the .......
Use old supplies or an old technique including a die cut.
I have had this LD Tissue Box (CS) cutting file for over 2 years and have been meaning to make a project. So, I am pleased to say that the challenge gave me the perfect opportunity to use it and I am so pleased with how it turned out. I might even make a few of these for my colleagues at school as the school staff are always prone to colds during the Autumn Term!!
I have also used this taupe gingham cardstock which I have had for years, only because I love the colour and it was my last sheet, hence I didn't want to use it!
I did alter the cutting file slightly, I moved the oval to the centre of the box, but you could place wherever you so desired. I like how it opens at one end to slide your tissue packet into the cover.
As it is the summer holidays and crafting time is almost zero with the kids around I kept it simple. I used some yellow cardstock to create a rim around my oval aperture. I also punched out some flowers and leaves which I arranged around the top of the box. Lastly, I created a small banner and stamped my sentiment.
So hopefully you can join and link up your entry to the ......
and you must use old supplies or an old technique including a die cut.

Thanks Gerda its so easy to punch the flowers out using pretty papers.
DeleteOh my that taupe gingham takes my breath away! So pretty and such a thoughtful gift too. I can see why you were hoarding it...I would have too...though I am trying to break the habit. "Use it up" is my new mantra :)
ReplyDeleteI like your new mantra, only wish I could stick to it! There are just too many tempting papers around and I buy far more than I need!
