Sometimes you just need a small gift (thank you, just because, hostess gift). This wonderful pairing of
Xyron and
Anna Griffin products definitely fits the bill for just that. This little gift set is a box, with four cards in it.
I started by making the box from some of the
flocked paper and the amazingly
thick, pearlized cardstock. I loved using the
luxe flocked paper on the outside of this, as it is really soft. To create the sentiment for this boxed set, I used clear acetate in the "window". T
his way, I can let the cards shine. Using the Double-Sided High Tack 1/2" Tape made this super easy to put together, as well as let me easily add the acetate into the completed box.
I created two vertical and two horizontal cards using the
Grace Collection and pieces from
Anna Griffin's other collections. For the two vertical cards, I started with a base of the thick pearlized papers, then added various patterned and flocked papers, borders, sticker borders and die cuts. Some of the die cuts came dimensional, and some I was able to add layers myself. By running the die cuts through my
3" Sticker Maker, I was able to make sure that they were not going to shift when they were mailed. Rather than pull out my
Mega Runner and squish the dimensional die cuts, I just used my
Double-Sided High Tack 1/2" Tape to attach them to the cards.
For the two horizontal cards,
one had a base from the All About Her Cardmaking Kit, and one I used another piece of the Perfect Palette Cardstock Kit. Then I added more pieces of various die cuts. Lastly, I heat embossed a sentiment from one of Anna's stamp sets in black embossing powder. On these two cards, I really used my Double-Sided High Tack 1/2" Tape. It made the extra embellishments so easy to place. For the embossed section, I ran those two pieces through my 1.5" Sticker Maker before attaching them to the card.
I really love how easily this small gift came together.
