Note Cards and Matching Gift Box


I made this set for the 'Try a New Technique' challenge on Splitcoaststampers. You can find the tutorial for the box here: http://splitcoaststampers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=388026. I made the gift box, 4 note cards and matching envelpes.
I used the retired Stampin Up! set "Fruit of the Season". I absolutely love this set. Its so timeless and elegant. The images were colored with copic markers and I put Crystal Effects on the fruit to make them shiny. The paper is Stampin Up! 'Real Red', and Georgia Pacific White and an unknown lime green. I used ribbon from Michaels. The tag was created with a cuttlebug die. The sentiment is from the retired Stampin Up! set 'Holiday Woodcuts".
If you've never made a box before, I highly encourage you to give this one a try. I couldn't believe how easy it was. I've made lots of gift boxes before, and this one was indeed the quickest and easiest one I've ever made.
Thats all for today. I'm still trying to get out there and take some fall pictures. Yesterday the sun went away by the afternoon, so there went my chance. Hopefully the sun will stay out today. Amy
