Notecards Gift Boxes - Punched Design

I made these Notecards Gift Boxes few months back but was not able to post them. I have few more with different designs as well. This one is the Tile Punch Design. I made 2 boxes of the same pattern: one in blue and one in yellow. I haven't used the MS scoreboard to make them as my score board arrived much later :) I made my own templates for the boxes.

 Each box has a set of 3 notecards matching the outer design and in 3 different colors.

 The box and the three notecards.

 Here are the 2 boxes with the notecard set.

Do let me know how you liked my gift box set. I plan to put 3 matching envies also in the box. These are ideal for gifting.

The BIG Bow Card

Ok so I made this card keeping in mind 2 challenges: For the love of Crafting - BINGO Color Challenge and Itsy Bitsy's Big B challenge.

Hope I did justice to both the challenges. This card is sort of inspired from the cards I posted day before yesterday. I have used MS deep edge arches punch. I punched a 2 1/2 inch wide strip from both sides. Then I tied the bow on the punched strip and then adhered it to the base.

 Front view of the card...

 These flowers are handmade. I made them in many colors. They are pretty easy to make with a 5 petal punch. I used the blue ones here too for baby rocker card.

 And here is the pretty bow. Isn't the brad so cute! I love these brads so much that I hardly use them. Don't want them to get over. I made those small pins by weaving the beads in a wire.

It's freebie time today. To download the image, right click and Save As. Keep checking my Freebies/Templates section for more and let me know your feedback about this.

Baby Boy Rocker Card

Hey peeps! I made a rocker card for the first time. I think its perfect for a baby card as it rocks like a baby's cradle. I made a baby boy themed card for a dear friend who was blesse with a baby boy this week.

The pattern paper is from Paper Mania. And the image is also from Paper Mania "Me to You" pack. The flowers are handmade using 5 petal punch. The sentiment is a free digi stamp from Tracey's blog.

I have used assorted stickers to decorate the inside of the card.. The small footprints punch is from Itsy Bitsy.

Do lemme know how you like this card. I also made a similar baby girl card. Will share it soon.

CASEd Card

I absolutely fell in love with this card that I saw on Pinterest and could not hold myself back from replicating it. Although Carol has used a laser cut for this, I have used my MS Lace Punch for the card. It was so easy to make these cards that I made two of them at one go.

Thanks for dropping by. Have a great day!

Pocket Card

Hi guys. This card is inspired by the pocket card illustrated by Nikita at Lulupu. The fold is not exactly similar to her card. I saw this particular fold on You Tube.

White on White Wedding Card

Hi everyone! Hope all of you had a great weekend. I made this white on white card for BGC challenge over the weekend. I really liked this challenge and as soon as I read about it, I started visualising this card in my mind.

It is a center step card and I used an A4 sheet for this. So the card is quite big. I have used lots of punches here. The bride dress is made using paper doileys. I used two doileys to layer the dress.

 Here is a side view of the card.

I have used Martha Stewart Double Arches punch for the sides and Diamond Fence for the inner sides on both sides. I also used  Diamond Fence punch for the bottom panel.

Here's a close look at the sentiment and the hearts that I cut out from the lattice heart punch. 

Not sure if you noticed it. I have used a nylon net, that comes with some bottles as part of packaging, for the background behind the bride.

Happy Birthday Bro

Hi. Today I am sharing a card I made for my brother's birthday. It's such a task to make cards for men. I can only think of Blue and Brown colors to be used :)

I have layered 2 PPs for the card and 1 embossed plain blue paper, which is actually not quite visible.

For the center part I did some stamping in black on the blue oval die cut. Then I stuck the alphabets on top of the die cut.

The black ribbon is from my stash and the button is from Pie Lane.

Also wanted to share that I was in Top 3 at Lulupu for their Make you own embellishments challenge for this card and I also won Hussena's challenge at Yvonne's blog for my Sweet peas card.
