One of my favorite parts of my business with Stampin' Up! is the connections and relationships.
Today day was one of the many aspects of my business where I had an opportunity to meet, connect and craft with my Upline, Sisterline and more....
I drove the 95 miles to see my dear friend Susy Reno who celebrated her 25th Anniversary with Stampin' Up! Connecting with some of the Demonstrators in the Antelope Valley was fun (hot but fun).
THIS is what we created today... what do you think??
Using this PREVIEW of the Holiday Catalog Gift Bow Bigz L Die (#129977 - available after August 1st) in conjunction with the Modern Medley Designer Series Paper (#126926) for a delightful, funky bow!!
OK so I like this die... but I love this paper. When Susy gave me the papers, a sample to mimic... I had to switch it up!! (I detest being placed in a box, unless it's one I've created, lol.)
Using these pieces of Modern Medley I built it after cutting the edges of two of the tree bows.
BEFORE adhering it to the Kraft Gift Box (#124106)that I'd tied closed with the 7/8" Natural Cotton Ribbon....
I had to make this bow different and more useful.
INSTEAD of adhering it to the box, I adhered ONE Side of the bow to ONE side of the bottom piece.
With such a great box to work with, it almost doesn't need a big bow.... but adding something fun can make the present extra special!! (Did you know that we sell these great boxes, and more?? Including dies to make boxes, our Simply Scored Board to aide in scoring boxes and more!!)
Leaving the bottom with a FLAP... like you see above, you can re-use the bow by slipping it under the ribbon on this and other gifts or cards!!
I LOVE re-gifting items that are cool - our oldest daughter has inherited many a cooking item (we have so many cooking tools - lol). Here a beautiful bow will now be like a cat - with multiple lives!!
Letting the flap fall open, simply slide it under the tied Natural Cotton Ribbon... and this is double tied for a WOW gift!!
What a fun twist on the usual bow. This stunning paper is neutral enough to be used for many gifts, many people of varying ages and stages in life!!
So simple and fun... it is 'tops' in my book! Slid right into my heart - bahahah, Ok so giggle at my silly humor, eh??
WHO would YOU gift this beautiful box to?
What would you place inside??
