OSAT Blog Hop - You've Got This

 

Hello and welcome to my blog; today I am taking part in the One Stamp At A Time (OSAT) Blog Hop.  This month's theme is all about encouragement.  I picked the Queens Anne's Lace Stamp Set to create both my projects.  I created a card and a little box.  The box that I created was done with one of the Flowers For Every Season Memory & More Note Cards.  Here's a look at my card.  

All this week I have just been using supplies that are in the suggested Starter Kit from Stampin' Up!, along with the supplies in the Get & Go Joining Special.  The Queen Anne's Lace Stamp Set is part of this special.   It's actually one of the stamp sets you get for free during September.  Since I have only allowed myself the supplies in the Suggested Starter Kit to use this week, I used a piece of Whisper White Cardstock as my card base.  I cut down one of the Flowers for Every Season Memory & More Note Cards to server as my card front.  

I cut down another piece of Whisper White Cardstock to 3" x 4" and stamped the Queen Anne's Lace image from the stamp set in Just Jade and Bumblebee Inks.  I added a Best Wishes sentiment to the front of the card.  This will allow me to write whatever encouraging message I need to on the inside of the card.  I added the stamped image to the card front with a few Stampin' Dimensionals.  And finished off my card with a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels.  

For my 3D project this month I used another one of the Flowers For Every Season Memory & More Note Cards and created a super cute little box.  Yes, I said I used one of the note cards to create a box.  Here's how my box turned out.  

After all the scoring, cutting, and folding was complete.  I stamped the same image I used on my card all over a piece of Whisper White Cardstock in the same two colors to create my own designer series paper to decorate my little box.  I stamped the same sentiment on a strip of Whisper White, that actually came from a cut off of the handmade DSP, and added it to the front with Stampin' Dimensionals.  I added a few rhinestones and wrapped some of the Cinnamon Cider In Color Ribbon around it and tied the ribbon into a nice bow.
