If you saw my post from yesterday, you saw the flower pins I made for my leadership gifts. Well, I couldn't just give the pins........I wanted a box to put them in. That way they wouldn't get damaged getting them to leadership and then on the way home. So I found this great blog by Connie Stewart. She has come up with a great formula to make up ANY size box you want using the Simply Scored Board. Check out her blog, she has lots of great stuff on it.
For all my box tops I used:
Paper Doily Sizzlit die
Designer Rosette die
Timeless Portrait or Twitterpated dsp
Blossom Punch for the leaves
3/8" Pleated Satin Ribbon for the center of all the flowers. I just rolled it up and secured it with hot glue. You need just a tiny bit or you will burn your fingers.....ask me how I know.......
All my boxes have a Crumb Cake bottom and the top is the same color as the flower. So this one is for Patty (she has already seen it, then I took it home by mistake....). For her flower I used the Timeless Portrait fabric, so I used the same dsp for the Medallion.
This one is Baja Breeze & I used the Twitterpated dsp for this one and the rest of them.
Pear Pizzazz.
Island Indigo.
And Riding Hood Red.
Using the Rosette die to make these medallions is so easy and fast. Make sure you check out Connie's blog. She is a genius for making the boxes!
