"It's a good box" for Paper Rose

For my birthday last month, my brother and sister and their families sent me a lovely arrangement of flowers. The flowers were in an oversized teacup, and the whole thing arrived in a white hatbox. You know when you have boxes ,you need to get rid of them, right? But you also know that sometimes, you can't, because it's a good box, right? Well, this was the situation I was in - it was a good box, I didn't have a particular use for it, BUT IT WAS A GOOD BOX!!!! So I had to do something about it. I got out my Christmas Holiday Basics 12x12 paper from Paper Rose, my paper trimmer, glue, and some red glitter paper from my stash, and I got busy! 

(there's a pic of the original box at the end)

Leaning Lily: Altenew Ambassador

Today, I'm sharing a card I made using the Leaning Lily outline stamp set from Altenew. I added a stenciled background using the Deco Diamonds Builder stencil. I'm kind of proud of myself - I used purple and orange in the same card that's not a rainbow! LOL!

Have a holly jolly Christmas for Hero Arts

 Today, I'm sharing a third card I made using the new Home for the Holidays release from Hero Arts. I love a non-traditional colour scheme from Christmas, but orange and brown is a bit out of my comfort zone! Oranges and cinnamon call for it, though! I added some glitter in the wreath for some sparkle.

Sending a little extra merry for Spellbinders
