QUICK POST!

I'm on my way out the door to meet a new friend for lunch, but I HAD to tell you how much fun we had last night at the SURPRISE BOX class!!! If you missed it, you missed OUT, let me tell you! :D


First, I got the directions I followed from Pam Curtis of Creative Choice Designs. I'll try and find a URL for you when I get home.





These are how they look when you're finished - unless you're going to embellish them. :D We pretty much let the designer series paper do the work here; I really like how clean the lines are, and I don't think I'd do too much to mess with them. :D







And THIS is how they look on the inside!!!


Aren't they ADORABLE? Besides using a paper trimmer and a hole punch, EVERYTHING is done by hand for these fun boxes. The box on the left is done with Pacific Point DSP and Whisper White card stock; the box on the right is Riding Hood Red DSP and Whisper White.


Here's a little closer look at one:
They were REALLY fun - we folded, and folded and folded, and then folded some more, while we just chatted away. :)
OK, I'm grabbing my stuff and running. :D Don't miss a class again! :D CLICK HERE to check on my class schedule.
I hope you have a GREAT day - don't forget to enter on YESTERDAY'S POST to win some blog candy, and for PETE'S SAKE, take the time to STAMP SOMETHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
