Celebrating Love

What goes better on a wedding card than a heart?

A.

LOT.

OF.

HEARTS.  ♥ ♥ ♥

I started my card today by dry embossing a piece of Sahara Sand card stock.  I matted that with a bit of Basic Black.  Then I heat embossed the floral heart stamp from the Bloomin' Love stamp set onto a bit of vellum.  I took a piece of Blushing Bride card stock, and coated it in my sparkly embossing powder and heat set that.  Then I cut hearts out of the vellum and now sparkly card stock.  

I heat embossed my sentiment, and then layered up the hearts with  angle cut banners.  Then I attached my card front to a white card base.  I went to photograph the card yesterday to write up this post, and decided it needed more.  So, out came the wood heart embellishments.  

Look at that sparkle!  ♥

2" Treat Box | Video

Hearts.  I have a thing for hearts, you know.   And, yet, somehow I only just finally purchased the Sweet and Sassy Framelets.  (Seriously?  How have I not had these yet?!)  

So you know more hearts are coming, don't you?

I love the little 2" square treat boxes that Stampin' Up! carries.  They're the perfect size to hold a good sized amount of candy, without being too large.   The Clear and White are great.....sometimes.  But, sometimes, I want a little variation on the color.

Sometimes I want Real Red, or Smoky Slate, or Sahara Sand...so, I figured out how to make a 2" square box with the gift bag punch board.  And it's super easy to do.

Start with a piece of 8.5" x 4.75" card stock.  And then watch the video tutorial I'm including in this post!

I even show you 3 different ways to close up the box, so you can pick what works best for you and your design.

The tutorial starts at 2:09 for those who prefer to skip the jabber at the beginning.
