A Gift To Say Thank You

Hello everyone how are you all?

Have you seen the fabby new products Tracy has recently added here & the new Magnolia Recipe collection is in her store now here.Not forgetting the darling new Little Darling release that is on pre-order here.........I know yumminess overload at its best!!

I'm here today to show you a little giftbox thing I made as a way of saying thank you to someone, or it could even be to say sorry or a get well soon kinda pressie......we alllove pressies when we are poorly.....I was recently poorly so hubby even got me some, he's such a gem;-)

So this is a little boxto hold something sweet inside....... Of course I've used Maja Design Summertime paperswhich are soooooo darn gorgeous.....yes I know they all are arn't they.

If you had to choose a favourite what would it be? 

There is not one bit of this I didnt decorate & as usual I machine sewn all the edges, except the trims going around the edge.........I did think about it but then decided against it.

This is the back & I used a Joy Crafts die cut twice & then added a border from the bottom of one of the Maja Design 12x12 sheets & cut the ends.

So this is the inside which holds a nice bar of chocolate.

I added a pocket for a tag for somewhere to write so you dont have to squash the front down.

I decorated inside the pocket so everything co-ordinates & added the same lace on the front & back to the pocket as well.

I know the choccy is not that yummy but we all decided to eat healthily since the 2nd week of january so this chocoalte is the only one you are allowed......so the only chocolate in my fridge is 5 bars of 85% cocoa lol.....not that nice & 1 chunk is usually enough lol.

I

The image on the front is a Magnolia stamp from the seaside collection & is the Sea View chair........its great to be used alone or with another image... I do have this coloured up with a Tilda sitting on it also which will be on my blog in a few days time.

I coloured it with distress ink refills onto fabriano paper & then I cut it out using one of my favourite dies Little Darlings Fancy Squares only instead of looking like a square I turned it.

I also used another Joy Crafts die cut it in half & placed half either side.

 The flap I made with dies from Little Darlings Fancy Rectangles, I've also used some of the button dies.

Of course I had to add bling & fancy flowers & a Whimsy sentiment.

Thank you for stopping by & your lovely comments on this blog.

Lotsa hugs Vicky xxx

Summertime

Good Morning.

 

I hope you are all well and enjoying your week.

 

My inspiration card is perfect for the glorious weather we are having at the moment as the papers are from the Maja Design Summertime collection and the image is from the new Magnolia release - Seaside.

 

I have coloured this adorable image with Distress Markers and Re-Inkers.

 

 

Mr Postie brought this leaf edge die this week and I love it. It can easily be cut down to add a few leaves rather than the whole die.

 Two dies from Joy (No 3) have been added to the side of the card.
 

 

I made a rose from the rolled roses die. This comes in two sizes but for this project I used the smaller one. A link to all the flowers and products used can be found at the bottom of this post.

 

I have bought so much scrapiniec chip board that it is so hard on diciding which to use. I opted for this gorgeous Ivy corner piece.

 



 

Thank you all for stopping by and for your lovely comments.

Just to remind you, we have a Chipboard Challenge going on at the moment. and it would be lovely to see you there.

 

Hugs Sharon. x
