My first project is an easy project that is great for a treat or small gift. It is the 2 4 6 8 box.

You start out with a 8.5X5.5 sheet of cardstock. Score on long side at 2 4 6 8 inches (this is how it gets it's name and then on the short side at 2 inches. Fold on score lines. Cut up to the long line and snip off the 1/2 inch piece.

 

Fold and glue the bottoms and side into a box shape.

Fold in on the sides to make bag gussets.

Line up the top and put 2 equal spaced holes.

Lace with ribbon tie bow

and embellishh however you want.

 

 

 I cut 2 circles one at 1.5 and one at 1.25 and stamped my design from the stamp set that comes with the Flirty WOTG set.

My second project is a card that I made on a 5.5 card base. I cut my base at 5.5 and my pumpkin is cut at 4X4and embossed with the Cricut Pumpkin Patch embossing folder. I then cut it into 1 inch stips and rounded the corners on the two outside pieces I left a small space between each piece and topped it with a pumpkin leaf cut from the Artise cartridge embellished with a green button and a sparkle from the Sparkles Clear Assortment.
 
 

The A Season of Fun saying came from the Flirty Complements Dimensional Elements which I coated with the Liquid glass to give it extra shine.

 I used a new technique on my pumpkin but unfortunately it doesnt show in the picture. But I added a glisten to it by painting it with a mixture of epsom salts and water mixed one to one. Be careful when you are painting it not to go over a spot you've already painted or you will remove the glisten. Paint it and let it dry completely. The only color I haven't been able to get it to work on is black. Give it a try and see what you think.

I hope you enjoyed your visit here and if you have any questions please feel free to ask.
