Hamburger-Cupcake Box

Linda Heller had this on Stamping School.  I was having a time trying to put the new (available June 2, 2014 through my Stampin' UP! link - just click on the catalog) hamburger box together.  Me and hot glue don't exactly get along real well!  She showed a different way of putting the box together by using snips and cutting some of the fold lines and using Tombow Multi Liquid Glue.  Here's how mine came out:

 
 
The little Hostess cupcakes fit perfectly into the box.  I used the stamp set Something to Say and Polka-Dot Pieces.  The CS is coming in the new catalog also, it's called Lost Lagoon, don't you just love it?  The ribbon is Hello Honey 3/8" Stitched Satin Ribbon.  I also used the Bird Builder Punch, Itty Bitty Accents Punch Pack for the little flower on the front.  1-3/4" Circle Punch, 2-3/8" Scallop Circle Punch, of course the Hamburger Box Bigz XL Die, Whisper White CS, Basic Gray CS, Moonlight DSP Stack and Mossy Meadow CS. This will give you a "sneak peak" at some of the awesome new products coming out with the new annual catalog on June 2, 2014.  Oh yeah, the new Blendabilites are also coming out, they are alcohol based and that's what I used to color the rhinestones on the inside of the lid of the box.  So many awesome new products!

Cordlan's Graduation Card

My husband's Grandson will be graduating High School ~ here's the card I made for him.  The idea came from Cindee Wilkinsons's Just Sponge It!  She CASED it from Dawn O's site.  So glad they both "share" what they love!





Dawn O has a video.  The Perfect Pennants Die makes it easy to create the grad gown.  Cordlan's HS colors are Black/Red.  The inside is computer generated.  The scallop circle on the back has my OWN created stamp showing my blog information.  The inside of the envelope is lined with Silver Fancy Foil Designer Vellum.
