Thinking Outside the Box

I made this card for a friends 3 year old, the stamp set is Simple Stems from the new Occasions Catalogue from Stampin' Up! It is actually a flower set, but one of the flowers turned upside down, makes a great little hairy monster.

Who doesn't like to get something for free! Sale-a-bration is a great time to order stamps from Stampin' Up! For every $90 that you spend in ANY current catalogue you get a free item from the Sale-a-bration Catalogue.

Welcome

Happy New Year!  This is my first attempt at a blog, so please bare with me. So to start things off I wanted to share with you my latest creation of the ‘Card in a Box’ idea that I saw in a video by StampinT. I wanted to use up a retired kit I had bought last year, so used the Stampin' Up! kit Razzleberry Splash Simply Scrappin.

This is what I came up with.
