Simple Friendship Card Set

I made some gift card sets with the Simple Friendship stamp set. I love the clean monochromatic look of the cards. I love the new Crumb Cake ink to go with the former Kraft now Crumb Cake paper. This is a modification of a card from the catalog. It would look great with any color.

I made these cards 4" x 4" square. I started by stamping the circle on the Naturals Ivory paper and punching it out with the 1-3/4" punch and then stamping the flower and cutting it out and using dimensional in between each layer.

Petal Card Box

I love making boxes and this one was no exception! And I love it even more when I can use my Big Shot and Sizzix dies to create cute boxes like this one! To create this box, I ran some mellow moss through my Big Shot with the Petal Card die four times. I trimmed off one of the petals on each petal card and then used the other side to put all the sides together. I folded the bottom petals one by one over each other and tucked the last one in and did the same on the top. I wrapped some so saffron striped grosgrain around the box and stamped the "friend" from the Simple Friendship stamp set. This will make a perfect gift box!

True Friend Card

As soon as I saw the butterfly in Simple Friendship in the new catalog,  I knew I had to get it!  I love the butterfly!  I also had to get all the new Sizzix texture plates.  It's hard to tell from this picture, but I used the swirl texture on the baja breeze.  It adds a lovely texture and dimension to the card.
