Digital Delights & Festive Flowers!

For my  Digital Delight Challenge card for this week, I have used one of Wendy's adorable images called Flurry the Snowman.  He was printed out on watercolor paper and then colored and shaded with my Tombow watercolor markers.  I colored my cream ribbon blue by using my blue copic marker.  Poinsetta flowers were colored with a Tim Holtz distressed ink pad.  Stickles were added for extra color and bling!  My card stocks are from this years Christmas collection from MyMindsEye.  I also added crystal lacquer to Flurry's light to simulate glass.

Creative Card Crew and Challenge of Anything Goes!

For my  projects for this bi-weekly challenge, I used two stamps from Northwood stamps and one stamp from an old SU Christmas set.  My cardstock  is from this year's My Mindseye Christmas  line.  It  is always amazing to me how much just adding a different solid behind the same line changes the look.  My gingerbread card was stamped in momento ink and colored and shaded  with my copics.  My candbar cover image was stamped in momento ink and colored and shaded with copics.

Digital Delight Challenges Give Thanks!

I needed a cookie box for a Thanksgiving gift, so I used one of Wendy's adorable Indians and one of her  adorable Pilgrims for my box.  They were colored and shaded with copics. For the grass I used two different colors of green Bazzill cardstock and my MS grass punch.  My fence is another MS punch (Halloween) punch.   I simply cut off the bats.  I have a old fiscars cloud punch that I used on the background.  I am planning on filling this box  with Thanksgiving cookies to take to our Thanksgiving celebration with family!

Hostess Monday and Christmas Treat Bag Tutorial!

Hello!  I am the Hostess for Digital Delight this Monday!

 

For this week's hostess Monday, I am doing a tutorial on a Christmas Treat Bag!  I hope you like it!

 

 

Supplies Needed:

8 1/2" x 11" Sheet Colored Cardstock

Cardstock scraps for front of box

Edge Punch

Cropadile

Scorer

Scissors

Roll of Sticky Strip Adhesive

Stamps

Ribbon

Joyful Jamie

 

Magical winter sentiments

 

Step-by-Step Directions:

Step 1

Position cardstock lengthwise. Using scoring bone folder, score cardstock at 2", 5", 7", and 10".

Step 2

Turn cardstock, and score at 2" and 7".

 

 Step 3

Hold cardstock horizontally with the 2" section at the top.

Use scissors to cut off all but one 2" tall section from the top of the cardstock as shown. This will be the flap closure for the box. Make vertical cuts at the bottom to create 1 1/2" tall flaps, and cut off the narrow piece. This will be the bottom of the box. 

 

 

Step 4

Cut the narrow piece at an angle to create tab for adhesive. Apply adhesive strips

Fold scored lines with a bone folder.  Remove top layer of adhesive.

Construct box.  (Add adhesive to all edges of box to adhere flaps

 

 

Step 5

Punch edge of front flap.

Pinch top sides of boxes and bend only top of box to form top of box.

 

 

Step 6

Punch two holes in flap with cropadile through all box layers (or any hole punch)

(I punched a little off even with premarking where to put my holes, but it still looks great when it is all done)

 

Step 7

Thread ribbon through holes on box. Center ribbon. Tie in a knot

Step 8

Decorate front of box with scrap cardstocks and or image of your choice (I used Digital Delights Joyful Jamie for the front  of my  treatbox along with the Magical Christmas Sentiments.  She was colored and shaded with my copics!  I just love coloring her and have used her many times so far for my projects!)

I also used the corner rounder for my corners of my box

 

 

Enjoy filling and giving!

Hugs
