Artistic Embellishments: Popcorn Box for a "Gift from the Garden"

Monday, September 12, 2016

Hello stampers!

I have a super cute box to share today. I'm a popcorn nut, so I naturally had to have the {Popcorn Box Thinlits Dies} when I saw them in the Annual catalogue in May. I have used the boxes for their intended purpose, for treats and of course, popcorn. But, I was playing around and decided to make a box for some bulbs from my garden. What better stamp set to use for a "garden gift" than {Gift from the Garden}?

So sweet right? I used the {Serene Scenery Designer Series Paper Stack} for the fun polka dotted paper. I stamped and fussy cut the rubber boots and matching garden gloves... I wouldn't mind a snazzy ensemble like this one.

I found my {Fringe Scissors} and put them to work to make some grass for the top of the box. I really need to put those scissors front and center, I always end up misplacing them. I thought it would looks nice to have the grass fringe and the bulbs inside, they go together!

AH - DOR - A - BLE!!!!! Really adorable. It's so teeny, tiny, but you can still fill it with lots of treats and trinkets to gift away.

You can see the bulbs that I had inside, there is quite a few. They are drumstick Allium, so they are a smaller bulb - but I put around 20 or so in the bag. They almost look like Malteasers or Whoppers, they sure wouldn't taste the same... onion and dirt is not a tasty combo! I hope you like this sweet little box, have a great one!!
