It was my friend's birthday yesterday, and she has recently qualified as a nurse, so I have bought her a little nurse's watch to use when she starts her first job in a few weeks. The box it came in was cute, but not as cute as a homemade one! I know her favourite colours are yellow and brown, so I have incorporated that into the box. The box itself is loosely based on a design by Teresa Payne in the USA. I didn't have a background paper that I thought went with the theme of my card, so I stamped my own out on some white card!
The box is made with the following (All Stampin' Up! unless stated):
Cardstock: So Saffron, Early Espresso, Calypso Coral & Whisper White
Inks: So Saffron, Early Espresso & Calypso Coral
Punches: 1 3/4" Scallop, 1 3/8" Circle
Stamp Set: You're A Gem
Ribbon: Calypso Coral Ruffled Ribbon
Other: Velcro cut to size, Dimensionals & clear celophane for the cut out.
My friend loved her present, and I am sure your friends would too! You can adapt this box to fit any colour scheme, please email me if you would like a tutorial.
B xx
