Indigo Limeade Mini Milk Preserved Pair and Sneak Peek

Good day to you all. It’s Thursday and that means that we are one more day closer to the weekend! I have big plans to get a lot accomplished this weekend, we’ll see how that goes. For today’s post I made a little 3 x 3 z-fold card and a Mini Milk Carton to go with it. The card starts off with a base of Naturals White Card Stock cut to 3″ x 9″ and scored at 1 1/2″, 3″, 6″ and 7 1/2″. I embossed a pice of Lucky Limeade with the new Woodgrain Textured Impressions Embossing Folder* and adhered it to the front panels. The stamped images are from the new Perfectly Preserved* Stamp Set and are cut out with the new Cannery Framelits Dies*. The jar is stamped in Island Indigo and a piece of Island Indigo Bakers Twine is tied around the mouth. The pear is stamped in Lucky Limeade and the leaves in Chocolate Chip. The just for you is also stamped in Island Indigo and cut out with the Bitty Banners Framelits Dies. They are all mounted to the belly band of Island Indigo, the pear and greeting with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The Mini Milk Carton is cut out with the Mini Milk Carton Bigz Die from another piece of Naturals White Card Stock. I used Sticky Strip to hold it together. A piece of Island Indigo is used for the background behind a repeat of the pear from the card. The thank you is stamped in Island Indigo and I used the Bitty Banners Framelits Dies to cut out a piece of Lucky Limeade to mount behind it. A Stampin’ Dimensional makes sure that you can still open the milk carton without bending the greeting. I’m loving the color combination. The new Perfectly Preserved* Stamp Set and Cannery Framelits Dies* are some of my favorites from the new Holiday Catalog. I hope that you enjoyed today’s project and thank you so much for stopping by. Enjoy your Thursday everyone!
