3D Cross

Hi! Today I'm showing you this beautiful 3D Cross Gift Card Box from SnapDragon Snippets. Finished size is 7” wide x 9.25” tall x .75” deep. 

It can be made with or without the gift card holder insert. 
This would make such a nice gift box for any occasion, but with the Easter season approaching, it could be a great decor item, too! Thanks for joining me today!

Lady Gift Bag

Today is the new challenge over at Decorate to Celebrate. I have created a gift bag from a retired file called "Day at the Races". Sorry, I didn't know it was retired until I started to create this post. There are some usable ideas to take away from this item, though! I used a teal ink pad to brush the edges of the flower, then spritzed with water and used my embossing tool to curl the edges up before I put this pretty peony flower together.
I finished off the silhouette with some bling around the lady's neck.

The ribbon was covered with my new Wink of Stella which created a LOVELY glimmer look. And the bit of bling on the inside of the peony added another shiny touch.
This was really fun and quick. Create your own project and join our challenge!
Thanks for looking!

Shamrock Flourish

Hi friends! Today I'm showing you the 4 Leaf Clover Flourished from the SnapDragon Snippets store. I cut it out of a 12 x 12 sheet of paper, with a black piece for the background, then made the banner to put across the front. This is now hanging on my front door! Re-sizing is a great way to use your files in a whole new way! Thanks for stopping by today!

Edward Elephant

This is a cute digi from Bugaboo Stamps called
Edward Elephant. It's my project for the new challenge over at {PIN}spirational Challenges. I colored the digi and put it on glittery green paper, then created the shamrock circle background in Make the Cut software. The bling in the corner is green, but it looks more like blue in this picture. The patterned paper is DCWV Mango Frost. Thanks for looking!
