Happy Meal Card


I am beginning to think I should rename my blog "The Ultimate Recycler."  I just look or touch something and it has to be made into a card or something else useful.  This is the Happy Meal box that my kids had their lunch in yesterday.  It is extremely colorful and the side graphic panel was perfect for making a card!

The base and Lacey Oval are in Pacific Point.  The ribbon, to hide the box crease, is Real Red 1/4" grosgrain.  The stamp is from Perfect Punches by Stampin' Up.  My husband chuckled when he saw it.  Some people see a box and I think outside the box, I guess. - Heidi

If at first you don't suceed....



Try again! I made the Pretty in Pink flower and ran it through my Cuttlebug and got an ugly line. I needed to run it through twice as this is a 5 X 7 card. The square lattice embossing folder isn't big enough for one pass. Then my friend Beth suggested I use my BigShot and it didn't make a big ugly line. I passed this through with a 5 X 7 Cuttlebug folder also to try and cover up the line. The folder is called polka dot. The leaves are my new fancy foliage dies from Spellbinders - love them! The Blossom Petals Punch and Build a Blossom stamps are from Stampin' Up. The blue flower is Baja Breeze and the leaves are Pear Pizzazz. The flower centers are So Saffron cardstock and ink. The sentiment is from All Holidays in the SU IB&C. The card base is Pear Pizzazz and the background is Concord Crush. Hope you like it! I have more to post, but it'll have to be another day. Good night, again. - Heidi
