Square Pillow Box Die Extended

I used an A4 Whisper White sheet of CS & scored it in half on the short side, you will have left over after die cutting the 2 so if you want cut the A4 down to 5 3/4",
see pic below for placement.
The Softly falling embossing folder fits perfectly on the front piece of the pillow box.

Faux metal embossed

A lot of things about this card I love, the layout is one I've used again & again & the flower punched simply from the Blossom Punch & the faux metal background. Firstly I started with a whisper White piece of CS that I ran through the bigshot in the vintage wallpaper embossing folder. I sponged randomly in 3 colours (blue, green, brown) then I sponged randomly all over in patches with versa mark & embossed with gold powder. The end colour result made me go with Poppy Parade, Pool Party & Soft Suede & the prettiest DSP Attic Boutique. I extended the jewellery tag punch out to fit fabulous on (cut a strip that is the teeniest bit smaller than the width of the punch so you can thread the piece to be punched in & up out through the actual punch area), see pic below.
The dress I had sitting made up from when I did the video on it here & the left over strip of Faux metal I thought worked nicely.

Free Ribbon & Buttons

 A few Re-inkers & baby wipes gives you this fabulous look.
I used "Printed Petals" stamp set (you need a bold design). I laid down some plastic first & then a baby wipe, which I folded down equally to a little bigger than my stamp & made sure I had no creases. Next I squeezed a couple of drops of each of the 4 colours (matching the ribbon & buttons) Melon Mambo, Pacific Point, Daffodil Delight & Old Olive, randomly (3-4 of each colour was perfect). This you now use like its an ink pad & it goes a long way, so have your white CS ready & even create some background paper.
The gift with purchase ends in a couple of days & before the promo ends here are some more ideas & creations to share with you;
