Something Saturday - Louvre Windows Card

Image
 Hi there Creators Today I thought I'd show you how to create this Louvre Windows card (little bit of trivia, did you know Louvres were invented back in the middle ages around 1500 years ago?, they were made of wood and put on pitched roofs to let out smoke, and increase circulation)😃 Anyway moving on.... I saw these kind of cards at the Picture to Page show, and of course the company selling them had dies to cut out all the components, but I figured I could make it work my own way. And so Voila: I made this card up before the video using the Celebratory Sips Designer paper (see all the links below) and here it is opened up (little difficult to photograph!) So this is the bit that's obscured above! Then in the video this is the card I made up, this time using the Beautiful Gallery Designer Paper (again links below) and the middle..... as you can see I used a bit more of the designer paper to cut out and add to the middle sections and again the obscured bit Links for products R...

Mini Paper Pumpkin boxes and Artistry Blooms Designer Series Papers

Hi there Creators
Just in case the title didn't give it away, we have Mini Paper Pumpkin boxes  which are only $13 for 10 of them!  they're so cute, you can fit the note cards and envelopes  (the link is for the white ones, but there are vanilla ones too) into it, so they're a fair size!  Also they're food safe, so you could put a biscuit in 😊  I've decorated this one up with the Artistry Blooms Designer Series Paper, funny really I didn't think much of this paper when I ordered it but I wanted to see what it was like, now I'm feeling a bit hooked! lol
Anyway on with the photos.....

I've cut the Artistry Blooms Patterned paper so the grading on it goes all the way round the box, starting with the flap, then top, back, underneath and lastly on the piece under the flap, then I've cut 2 separate pieces for the sides.  I do love the way this paper is graded up the page to the different colours.

On the top I've used one of the square vellum doilies, the saying is from the Hand-Drawn Blooms stamp set, and I've added some of the fabulous new Artistry Blooms Sequins, love the fact that they don't have a hole in the middle of them, so they look more like diamantes (and they've got their sticky bit underneath them)

I think these boxes are pretty cool, and I'm planning to use them for giving small pressies a special look.
What do you reckon?  I hope it inspires you with your gift wrapping.
God Bless love
