Birthday Fishes Gift Box

To create this project I used:

Canned
Something Fishy Sentiment Stamp Set
Something Fishy Sentiment Die Set
Ciao Bella Border Stamp Set
Arched Box Large Die

This was a fun project to create.  I never thought I would ever build a sardine can LOL!  I used the canned dies to layer up the box with the base using 3 of the large can die cuts.  The first layer is kraft, then red and then the top is the silver cardstock.  

The fun part about the scored die included in the Canned die set is that the red flap on this 2nd layer becomes a door.  It is attached at the top but can easily be opened to reveal a gift card or cash inside.  So this little gift box will be hiding a an extra surprise!

After I attached the cash with some low tack removable adhesive, I glued the red panel onto the kraft panel to enclose the gift.  

After having the base complete, I attached the can front to the Arched Box Large Die.  It fits perfectly behind the large Canned die.  I layered the front with the silver panel, the little fish dies and the sentiments on the front to finish off the can part of the project.   

AND then you can fit one more surprise inside!

I added a little bag of Swedish Fish with a label made using the Ciao Bella Border Stamp Set and the Something Fishy Sentiment Stamp Set.

One last detail was a tag from Something Fishy Sentiment Stamp Set on the back of the die to finish it all off!

Coastal Cuttings Thank You Card

To create this card I used:

Coastal Cuttings Die Set

Cottage Tile Background Die

Simple Everyday Sentiment Stamp Set

Sentiment Suite Basics Die Set

Loopy Bow Builder Die

For this card, I used a yellow card base layered with the Cottage Tile Background Die. It is a large die but very easy to cut down to an A2 sized card front.  Coastal Cuttings Die Set was so easy to die cut and piece together.  I popped it up on foam tape and added in the Loopy Bow Builder Die in gold cardstock.  Adding in the sentiment from Simple Everyday Sentiment Stamp Set was last on that perfect little banner die from Sentiment Suite Basics Die Set.

I had so much fun creating today's projects!  Remember everything you see here will be available on Friday, July 10th at 10am eastern.

A little info about commenting here on my blog....

My comments are moderated because I get a ton of spam.  The kind of spam that tells me about cholesterol medication, among others, and just weird bot comments so I filter those out.  If you leave a comment and don't see it, thats ok!  I will see it and I will get it posted for you.  

The other issue is wether or not you need a google account.  I have my comments set to "anyone" so technically you should be able to leave a comment with any type of login, but Blogger is a pain.  If you can't leave a comment and are not sure if you your name is posting along with your comment, 

please add your name and email address to the end of your comment. 

This way we can see who you are if your comment gets chosen as a winner!  I am sorry for the annoyance.  

I have no idea why it doesn't work like it should.  I have googled and switched settings around and tried all the things but again... 

Blogger is a pain.
