Card in the Box


Heyy Friends,
Hope you all are doing great. Today I'm sharing a Valentine themed 3D card- Card in a box to be appropriate and have used pink, white and red as the main colours. Why it's called 'card in a box', you'll know soon. Let me warn you that it's going to be a PICTURE HEAVY POST. Here are the pictures:


Card in a box

View from the left 
The moment you see it opened, it looks like a box full of colourful wishes and goodies :) So technically,it's a box shaped card :)

Tried heat embossing for the first time with this butterfly.

A slot inside for inserting gift card

Lying flat on closing up



The beauty of this card is that it can be easily folded flat and can be inserted into an envelope, and that makes it really apt for a hassle-free posting :)

There are many tutorials available on the internet for making it. But the one that really inspired me is this amazing video by My Stampin' Haven.
Patterned papers from DCWV-the girl stack

Supplies used:
Patterned papers by DCWV-the girl stack
white card stock-A4 sized
Stamps-Fiskars-all round quotes,butterfly magic and Inkadinkadoo-Floral expressions
Lindy's silver embossing powder
Distress and memento inks for colouring and distressing the edges.
Sequins and other bling from my stash

That's pretty much all from my side. I admit it felt so refreshing making this project after so many CAS cards.:)  Do let me know how you like it .Thanks for stopping by :)

    Some brilliant project!!! Your inking is divine!! I see some VERY bold blooms you could also use for the BOLD cue, love them so,I only have one or 2 with the lovely stems that look great in black - yours with the pearl, gorgeous!! I have made a note of the Inkadinkadoo floral expressions, I will need to remember that! Thanks for thinking of me, you are too sweet!!! I hope your Valentines day is so special!!!

    Hi Jasleen,
    The cutest thing about this creation, is the box becoming a card and sliding into an envelope so easily..!!! Fabulous job on stamping and heat embossing! Lovely colours too :)
