Hand Made Card Box #2

This is the second card box I made from scratch

and filled with hand made cards to give as a 

Christmas gift.

It uses more papers from the retired 

Sycamore Street paper pack 

and ribbon from

Stampin' Up!

I also used the new spiral flower die to create

the roses on the top, using 

Rich Razzleberry and Kiwi Kiss card stocks.

The leaves are not included on the die, 

so I used an old flower parts punch.

The scalloped circle die is a Nestabilites.

I finally got it mailed out

last week: I'd been housebound due to so much 

snow and sub zero temps. I was NOT going

out unless I absolutely needed to

(which I did not !). 

I also had to wait for the special batting

I needed for the second project 

(microwaveable bowl cozy)

to be delivered since I have no local

stores that sell that sort of thing. 

I am currently waiting for a second

order of  100% cotton batting snd thread to arrive,

I ran out of the first batch quickly.

Yep, it was one of those rescheduled several times

type of deliveries due to weather and the holiday.

After three changes in the delivery date, it should be here today !!!!

I'm ready for it =) 

My plan is to make several of the bowl cozies,

each with a coordinating greeting card,

and try to sell them to friends/family. 

I think it would be neat to package up

with a bag of soup mix 

or something similar, too.

I'll share the cards I made to go in the box tomorrow. 

Thanks for looking =)
