Easter Lamb Treat Boxes - Stampin' Up! Artisan Blog Hop

Welcome to another Artisan Blog Hop! I'm a little nuts about this lambie. Waaay cute! He takes on such different character depending on how you colour him. What's your favourite?

These boxes are for Easter treats for my big kids this year. I love how the Birthday Bouquet papers made it fun and easy to cater for my girl and, with a little creativity, the boys too. 

Three variations with the Gift Box Punch Board:

1) Girl's 4x4x4" box: Flaps folded out - see the reverse side of the Designer Paper - so sweet!

2) Boy's 4x4x4" box: Flaps folded in - bold and clean.

3) Toddler boy's 3.25x3.25x3.25" box: Flaps curled up and out - a little bit fancy. 

Time to go see what Valerie will wow us with!

Birthday Bouquet + Project Life - Stampin' Up! Artisan Blog Hop

Well, since our last hop went live, THIS happened...

We welcomed our baby #4, Eric, into the family almost three weeks ago. He's already changed so much since this photo was taken...

So... in the midst of bleary-eyed days (and eyes-barely-open nights), I bring you a simple Project Life page. Oh yes, Project Life is so good you can even accomplish a page or two when you're milk-machining it full time! Actually, I'd chosen and printed the photos prior to baby so that bit was done. Anyway...

The Birthday Bouquet Designer Series Paper was peeerfect for decorating up my daughter's 5th birthday party. I simply selected some coordinating patterns and chopped up the invitation to fit a 3x4" pocket.

(As an aside, the invite was a simple ice cream cone stamped on the front of a notecard. Each guest stuck on their own three scoops of ice cream - one dimensional per scoop on the back - and some basic rhinestones for sprinkles. I'm all about basic when it comes to making multiples and she loved helping me punch and collate everything in the envelopes for her friends.)

See the cute gold detailing? This acetate overlay comes FREE when you spend NZD$110 during Sale-A-Bration. It's one of the cards in the Memories in the Making Project Life Specialty Card Collection. Love how the scalloped edges fit in so well with the page.

Next up on the hop is the talented Valerie Moody! Until next time... x
