Indigo Pool Preserves Paper Bow Box & Card

Good morning everyone, how was your Monday? Mine was great! I hosted card class last night. We did a 3D project base on a box I made a few weeks ago and a 3 x 3 card. The paper bow was a request form my talented friend Sandy, her wish is my command! The box is made from Island Indigo and Pool Party card stock cut to 5 1/4″ and 7 1/4″. I scored the bottom at 1″ and 2″ on all four sides. The top is scored at 1/2″ and 1″ on all four sides but slightly moved over so that the lid fits perfectly. The top of the box has a piece of Island Indigo and to that I mounted a piece of Naturals White Card Stock that I embossed with the Fancy Fan Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. I punched out a piece of Island Indigo with the Decorative Label Punch and a piece of Pool Party with the Ticket Duo Builder Punch. They are adhered to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The bow is made from Naturals White and is stamped in Island Indigo with the Border Banter Stamp Set. The 1″ Square Punch is used to flag the ends of the bottom pieces. I wrapped a piece of Island Indigo around the middle and mounted it to the punched pieces with a Stampin’ Dimensional. In the middle I used a Vintage Faceted Designer Button and some Whisper White Bakers Twine to tie the greeting that is stamped from the Itty Bitty Banners Stamp Set in Island Indigo. The Bitty Banners Framelits Dies is used to cut it out and the hole is punched with the 1/16″ Handheld Punch.

The base of the 3 x 3 card is Naturals White Card Stock. I added a piece of Pool Party to the front. Using the Festive Paper-Piercing Pack and the Paper-Piercing Tool I pierced a window. The stamped image is from the Friendship Preserves Stamp Set and is stamped in Island Indigo. I used the Window Frames Framelits Dies to cut out the stamped image and then mounted it to a piece of Pool Party that is cut out with the Bitty Banners Framelits Dies with a Stampin’ Dimensional. I hope that you enjoyed the projects that we made at card class. Thank you for visiting and have a super day!
