Boxes and Tags

I recently purchased the Fancy Favor and Two Tags die cuts. I couldn't wait to try them out. I made one Christmas box with tags using the Sparkly and Bright stamp set and the other box using the Embrace life stamp set (shocking I know). I got carried away with embossing on the embrace life tags and didn't leave room to write a message. I think they also would make great bookmarks.




Stamp set: Sparkly and Bright
Paper: Soft Suede, Real Red, Whisper White
Ink: Real Red, Soft Suede, white craft ink, Clear embossing powder, crystal effects

Stamps: Embrace Life
Paper: Artichoke, Rose Red, Regal Rose
Ink: Black Stazon, SU markers (above colors) clear embossing powder

Sparkly & Bright Treat Boxes







I made these treat boxes using the Big Shot Box # 2. The were a lot of fun to make and actually came together pretty quickly. I used the new Sparkly & Bright stamp set from the recent catalog. This stamp set is great for tags also. I made a few of these but haven't taken a picture yet to post. Maybe next time.




Here are some close up pictures of the boxes:






For this box I used Real Red and Whisper white cards stock. The ink was real red and craft white.











It doesn't show up very well but I added some sparkle with dazzeling diamonds glitter to Santa's hat and coat.
























For this box I used Real Red, Chocolate Chip, and Whisper White. The ink is white craft ink. I added some crystal effects on his nose but it doesn't show up well in the picture.










I used the wide oval punch to punch a hole in the front of the box and added some transparancy paper. I love being able to see the treat inside. The circle dots are from the Delightful Decorations stamp set. I think some red and white candy (peppermints) would look great in the box.
