Hello Everyone! I hope all is well with you and yours.
I love box cards and when I came across the tutorial for this sweet wooden crate of daisies I couldn't resist creating it myself.
The tutorial can be found on the Mixed Up Craft Site here:
Daisy Week. This lovely lady has a wonderful talent for creating unique fold projects and this daisy box is no exception. I followed her instruction but added my own spin on things.
I used beige 110 lb. cardstock for the crate base and sent the strips through the Cuddlebug using a wood grain embossing folder. I inked the strips with Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Vintage Photo. For the flowers, I used an unbranded daisy die set I purchased from AliExpress and hand cut the stems from green cardstock. The stems were a little too flimsy for my liking so I glued strips of paper together to give the stems some strength. I colored the centers of the flowers with a yellow alcohol marker (
Ohuhu Markers on Amazon).
I cut a circle using an unbranded circle die set I purchased on AliExpress and stamped a sentiment from the Scrapbooking Queen for the front of the box card. I needed a place to write a sentiment so I cut out 2 mats, inked the edges with Vintage Photo, stamped the sentiment from a
CardzTV Stamp Set and attached to the back of the flower crate.
This lovely daisy crate can be used as a shelf or desk sitter; it will also fold flat for mailing. It will fit into a stand A2 card sized envelope.
I hope you enjoy my post today. Till next time, Happy Crafting!
