Christmas Past


Hi:  I haven't posted for a while.  Leading up to Christmas, I was under a shipping deadline to finish a "book" for my brother, Art.  I DID ship on time, but the post office didn't cooperate.  His and Lexie's gifts arrived one day after Christmas.  Sigh.  Moral of the story, get it done early.

This was a fun box to make, so I thought I'd share it with you.  All kinds of paper, lining, stamping, inking, embellishments etc.  Lots of hours in this thing!

For those curious about the photos, there's Lexie, Art and Mom at their wedding.  Art and I in much younger days...Mom too.  Plus Jerry and I at our wedding.  

Fun to make!  I'm planning a similar effort soon.


Happy New Year!!!  Stay safe!

Pillows

Two more pillow boxes.  I think they are the prettiest yet.

Pillow Boxes

These are so much fun to make.  The die that I use to cut them also creases them where they need to be folded.  Before I fold, I ink, stain etc.  These aren't finished.  They still need embellishments and tags, not to mention, something inside.

December, already?

New month, new card.  One shot shows the metallic well, the other shows the colors better.
