Hi everyone, it is Christine here today with a flowery birthday card and matching gift box. I’ve become such a fan of using Creative Photo Corners on my cards, they really give a nice finishing touch.
The papers used are My Mind’s Eye – Now and Then collection. I attached the striped pink paper to the card using MyStik® Permanent Strips, to decorate the green spotted paper I used Creative Photo Corners – Ivory just needed in the two top visible corners.
The stamped tag and flowers are easily adhered with Crafty Foam Tape – White and 3D Foam Squares – White Mix, always handy to have both sizes on your craft desk to suit your embellishments.
You can really see the dimension! The flower is Spellbinders® Create A Gerber Daisy and other dies used are Spellbinders® Romantic Rectangles Two and Classic Ric Rac.
A matching card and gift box comes together with ease with the right adhesives to hand.
Thank you for joining me today and happy crafting!
Supplies used:
Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L®: Crafty Foam Tape – White, Creative Photo Corners – Ivory, 3D Foam Squares – White Mix, MyStik® Permanent Strips
Spellbinders: Create A Gerber Daisy, Back to Basics Tags, Classic Ric Rac, Romantic Rectangles Two.
My Mind’s Eye: Now and Then Collection.

A lovely project Christine, I love the Pink and Green together, not a combination I would have thought of using, but creates a great effect. The flowers are beautiful and the photo corners really finish off the card.

Hi Christine
I tried, and failed to leave a comment on your other site for the Sunday giveaway but every time I click on the ‘post a comment’ link I get directed to a blank page.
I hope I can leave a comment here to be considerated for the draw 🙂
I think I’ve fallen in love with this project, the colours are just so right together and I adore the flower. The box is too cute as well.
Thanks for sharing this with us all. x

That little box is adorable! Must save my pennies to get that die! (or invent a way to kind of replicate it!) Love the colors!
