I want to share a Sneak Peek of one of the projects I created for my new edition, Paper Celebration 2012, of our first round of this year on INKspirations 4U!

Here it is: "Two and One" Gift Box


This cute little gift box has two compartments for goodies and a top opened box to add any "special" item, perfect for the upcoming Valentine celebration or any other celebreation, as birthday parties...it can also be used as a party favor!

Well, tell us one thing that you cannot live without when making cards or scrapbookings.

Good luck!

What a gorgeous box. I am a tutorial hoarder. I keep buying and buying and buying and very rarely have the time to do anything..praying by the time I retire I will tons of time to play...LOL

There are several things I cannot live without when stamping or creating. The list begins with my Table top cutter frum Stampin Up, the clear blocks, and also our Designer Series Paper. Most importantly I must have a purpose for whatever project I am working on. Is it for a workshop? Is it for a gift? Is it for a family album (scrapbooking)? I always start my project with focusing on the "Why". That keeps me grounded and on track for what ever it is that I am making. :)

Inkspirations for You is an amazing resource and one that I refer to time and time again. Thank you for the wonderful ideas and plese, keep them coming! <3

That box is very cute! I love that DSP - one of my all-time favorites and that sheet in particular is what I use most!

Love that box, Madeline!! I can't live without my Big Shot. I think I use it for just about everything I make! Would love to take your class again! Terry

Deborah said...

Very cute! I just love this DSP. Thanks for sharing.

SamieVt said...

Wow ... gorgeous!! I can not live without my computer! It is my 24/7 inspiration. We've all been there ... creator's block. You have a wonderful idea but just don't know how to 'put it all together' ... the ideas, guidance, tutorials and friendship online never let one down!! Thanks for being there!

Twila said...

Like Terry, I am a collector of tutorials! I love to look at new ideas and recreate them when I have time. My favorite cannot live without tool is my Big Shot and accessories. I buy those items before I even think about stamps and DSP. I would very much like to see how your beautiful box is made! It is absolutely gorgeous! You have wonderful projects that I would greatly appreciate being able to recreate. Thanks for sharing.

Anita said...

I love making items that are cute but useful. The DSP you chose are warm and soft which makes the box even more attractive. Thank you for sharing the box and your ideas with us.

Love this box. I made similar boxes for lots of occasions. I taught classes for a year straight and the ladies kept wanting to make more of these boxes. Great little candy box or sewing box. I love the flower you put on top to hold the ribbon. Very good idea. I've used the velcro type closures. Would love to win a free pass to INKspirations4U. I love making 3D items.

Well, besides the obvious (cardstock, stamps & ink), I find I use my Big Shot on nearly every project. Love the embossing folders, dies, Framelits, etc.!
