Sending Love Treat Box

Hello Crafty Friends! It's Laurie here sharing my Sending Love Treat Box for the Design Team of Paper Nest Dolls using Emma with Heart Balloon.


Time for something a little different than a card! Do you give your Sweetie treats for Valentine’s Day? If you do, you might like to make a treat box for them.


Isn’t the digital stamp Emma with Heart Balloon so sweet! Perfect for my Valentine Treat Box! I coloured her with my Copic Markers and added Glossy Accents to her balloons and Stardust Stickles to the heart on her top.

For my box, I used a Mini Paper Pumpkin Box from Stampin’ Up! This made a perfect box for holding treats and at the same time easy to assemble. I had fun decorating my box with the super cute Lovebugs paper by Doodlebug! Of course, I had to cover all sides of my box with it including the back!


On the paper, there are some sweet envelopes, so I used a die to cut some mini envelopes in different papers and placed felt heart stickers emerging from them, like my love was being sent in the mail! I place one on the cover and two inside.

For a Valentine box, you need lots of hearts and that is where the doily heart die with the love die cut on it and the cluster of hearts die came in handy. For my belly band, I used ribbon that has Happy Valentine’s Day on it, and I tied into a pretty bow.

Of course, you have to decorate the inside of the box and place lots of treats in it! Again, I used the Lovebugs paper and cut one of the tags out and popped it up on more of the cute paper! Love the sentiment:
“Loved you yesterday
love you still
always have
always will”

My last two envelopes with the hearts flank the sentiment.


Some finishing touches of rhinestones and Clear Wink of Stella on the hearts on the spine add a bit of sparkle to my project.

Ellie with Bible

 


Hello there, crafty friends!  Welcome to the Paper Nest Dolls blog!  We are so happy to have you here!  :)

Today, I'm sharing this card I made for my cousin's Confirmation coming up next month.  With Covid, we aren't able to see her receive this sacrament, but her mom asked if we could all send her some cards instead!  I think this sweet Ellie with Bible is perfect for a Confirmation, don't you??

To create this card, I printed the digital image on 80lb. Neenah Solar White cardstock.  I colored her with Copic markers and then cut her out with scissors.

For her skin, I used E000, E00, E21, E11, R20.
For her hair, I used E53, YR30, YR31, and Y32.

For her dress, I used R43, R21, BV02, BV31, and V20.
For the Bible and shoes, I used E42, E41, E40, and E31.

Once I got her cut out, I created some layers using some dies and patterned paper.  I also used Heffy Doodle's Down the Line Sentiments for my "Sending Love" banner.


I adhered everything to my card base and it's ready to be sent off to my sweet cousin!

Thank you again for stopping by the Paper Nest Dolls blog today!!  Xoxo, Amanda

Raccoon Smooch - Hugs & Kisses

Hello! Betty here with a cute Valentine's Day card.Valentine's Day cards are my favorite cards to make. I love using hearts and red is my favorite color. I am using one of my favorite stamps from Paper Nest Dolls called Raccoon Smooch. This stamp comes in a set of three stamps in red rubber or you can buy this particular one in digital format. 



I used Copic markers to color this stamp. So easy to color since it's only two color blends, gray and red! Colors are listed below.


Copic markers used:
Gray: W6, W5, W4, W3, W1, Blender
White: W3, W1, Blender
Red: RV17, RV14, RV13, RV11

This is a 6" x 6" card. I matted this card with patterned paper that I've had in my stash for years. I used heart dies and cut out a few different size hearts, a bow die, and a paper doily. No bow die? Just use ribbon. I typed up the sentiment, Hugs & Kisses, using MS-Word and printed it out. 


A fun, quick, and easy card to make and mass produce and the stamp makes it the cutest Valentine's Day card! Thank you for stopping by today. Have a great day! ~Betty~

Love Struck Emma with Amanda Fitterer

 

Hello there and welcome back to the Paper Nest Dolls blog!  I hope you're having a great week so far!  It's Amanda Fitterer joining you today with this sweet Love Struck Emma card!

To create this card, I printed Emma on 80lb. Neenah Solar White cardstock.  Next, I colored her in with the Copic markers. 

Hair:  Y23 and YR30  |  Skin:  E0000, E000, E00, E21, R20


Rest of image:  R43, R21, R20, R30, G21, G20, E31, E42, E41, E40


Once I got her all colored in, I started creating my layers using patterned paper, dies, a paper trimmer, and a rounded edge punch.


For my sentiment, I used Natural My Favorite Things ink and Heffy Doodle Bold Banner Sentiments.


The last step is to adhere my layers together!  I also added a few hearts!


Thank you so much for stopping by The Paper Nest Dolls blog today!  Wishing you a wonderful rest of the week!  Xoxo, Amanda
