{Lawn Fawn} Good Fortune Guest Post + Video Tutorial


I had the great pleasure of being on the Lawn Fawn Blog yesterday. Big thanks to Kelly Marie for my feature! I made a birthday card using the Good Fortune stamp set and patterned paper from the Daphne's Closet paper pad. When I started playing around with the stamps, I wanted to be able to put the chopsticks inside the box so I came up with a way to open up the box. Now it can be used for anything!


I added little swirls from Home Sweet Home as bits of noodles on the table cloth. Heehee.

Here's how I converted the takeout box. I hope you'll give it a try and share what you made!



Thanks so much for all your sweet comments here and on the Lawn Fawn Blog!

OMG, Emily! I am really enjoying your video tutorials--so glad you're doing them!!! Thank you for sharing! I couldn't be happier that you shared how to make this 3D take-out box, because that's a set a recently purchased and I saw someone do something similar to what you did today and I fell in love and wanted to do it!!! SO happy that you showed us!!! xoxoxo
