Gift Card Boxes

This gift card box was made out of an tin that I found at a yardsale. I spray painted it with gold metallic paint. The flower is made from 3 scalloped circles (all the same size). I wet the paper, attached the three circles together with a brad and then shaped the flower. It dries stiff.

Penny Black Saturday Challenge

The Penny Black Saturday Challenge for August was to use 2 Penny Black stamps. A lot of people were doing cards in this style at Stamp Camp last month, so of course I had to find the opportunity to try it. The three pieces of white paper were aligned on top of each other and the background stamped. The coordinating cardstock was then layered between the white layers.
