Christmas Boutique Items


This is my favorite boutique item so far! It's a set of monogrammed notecards with envelopes in a matching box with a matching tag!

Dry Erase Board

Though it's a bit hard to see because it's already packaged, this is a small dry erase board made from a 4X6 acrylic frame. I got the idea from Diana Gibbs and her Artisan Award submission. They are quick and easy to make. Design a 4X6 panel and slide it into the picture frame. This can be adapted to any size frame, acrylic or glass. The A2 box instructions are at Splitcoast Stampers. Just follow this link. I used an overhead transparency (are these outdated or what?!) as the acetate sheet for the top of the box. The box is designed for holding a set of A2 sized (4.25X5.5) cards and envelopes!


Halloween Treat

Here is a small Halloween treat box that we made at camp this month. I used a box pattern from Stampin' Up! (#33) and printed it onto Pumpkin Pie cardstock, cut it out, scored, and added some sticky strip. The Trick or Treat is a stamp from the Holiday Best level 1 hostess set. I used the Basic Black and Old Olive markers and my Versamarker (on the pumpkin) to color directly onto the rubber stamp before stamping. Many say it looks like an apple pie box from McDs, but it is smaller than that. It is large enough to hold a few pieces of Halloween candy or other small gift items!
