Today I am off so since I love the SCS challenges, I thought I would play today because I don't often have the chance.
The challenge is to make a Thank you for "Boxing Day". This is going to the post lady with a gift card on the inside as shown in the photo.
This is an altered "Laughing Cow" cheese box. I spray painted the box white and cut out circles to fit the inside of the box as well as the bottom and top. I die cut one large circle from the Spellbinders large circle set to layer on top of the designer paper. Then the large doily in the Parisian Motifs Shapabilities out of silver glitter paper. The next layer is the medium doily from the Floral Doily Motifs Shapabilities. I distress inked the edges of the white die cuts with Stormy Skies Distress Ink. The flower is from Rose Creations Spellbinders die. The pretty floral is from Michael's Ashland Floral Bush. It was decorated with silver stickles. The branches are a Martha Stewart Punch. The Thank You sentiment is from the dollar bin at Michael's.
Thanks for taking a peek. I hope you had a blessed Christmas and wishing you a Happy, Healthy New Year!

You always have such beautiful embellies on your projects! They may be easy for you, but I dread the thought of having to duplicate one!! Carole, this is gorgeous!!
