Artful Crafting - Challenge # 10 - Love

Hello to all the beautiful people reading this post :)


So as I promised, here I am with my second entry for Artful Crafting Challenge #10. The Challenge #10 is about " Love". You can find more about the challenge at 

I am sharing an exploding box which I have crafted on a client's request for her hubby on his birthday. Since his hubby is very fond of his heavy bike; the center piece "the cake" has been given a toper with the picture of his actual bike (image is not downloaded from any search engine). 

The color combinaton is Black, Red and Beige and the theme is "Our Love Story". So now lets watch it flap by flap...

The Cover - Our Love Story 

The box when opened...

Vroom Vroom - The Bike :)
The inner four flaps and picture tags for kids :)

The extensions at the back of the flaps...

The outer flap (shown one here)

I consider this creation very dear as this holds the memories of entire family inside. There was a separate portion for kids & parents and separate for the couple. 

The cardstock/craft paper and stickers used in the box are from: 

Bo Bunny Love & Lace – Combo Stickers 12″X12″

Bo Bunny Love & Lace – Double-Sided Cardstock 12″X12″- Passion 

Bo Bunny Love & Lace – Double-Sided Cardstock 12″X12″- Cherish 

Simple Stories- You & Me- Simple Set Collection Kit 12″X12″

This post would have been more elaborate if I was able to share the video - couldnt becuase dont know how to compress one :P Not a real techno geek...

So folks do let me know your comments about this project :)

Regards,

Artful Crafting - Challenge # 10 - Love

Hi there!

I am sharing a card I made for my bestest friend. Her request was that I make something which she can present to her husband to let him know that they are made for each other and will be together through thick and thin:)

I did not participated in kickstart January, but now is my chance to enter in Challenge #10. This is going to be my first entry for 2016. I have committed to myself that this year I will craft something every month. Lets see how far I am able to stay committed to myself. 

The Challenge #10 is about " Love". You can find more about the challenge at http://artful-crafting.com/wordpress/2016/02/challenge-10-love/


The card I made is 7"x5". At the front I used a design cut from Bo Bunny Love & Lace - Double Sided Cardstock 12"x12" - Passion. I have put a die cut from Bo Bunny Love & Lace - Noteworthy Die - Cuts and stamped it with letter You & Me. I put little pearls to give a decent finish to the scallop circle. I have distressed the inside of the card with Distress Inks - Fired Brick and Vintage Photo. Once again I used a die cut saying "Forever & Always" from Bo Bunny Love & Lace - Noteworthy Die - Cuts. I used some vintage washi tape to decor the edges and center of the inner side of the card. 





The card had an aged brown envelope having "To You - From Me" stamped at one corner.  

This brings me to the end of my post. Do let me know how do you like it. As I have used all the elements purchased from Artful Crafting except for the card base and Vintage Photo distress Ink; I intend to make a second entry soon :)

Love
Sobia
