Hi, everyone! It's hard to believe that this is my final week as Winnie & Walter's Leading Lady! Every Saturday, I shared projects with a weekly theme. Today's theme is gift wrap and I made a set of cards with a tag and matching pillow box in the art deco style!
For the background of the card set, I used pearlescent embossing paste with the Do You See What I See? stencil. I added splatter using a mixture of Black Soot distress ink and water on a Ranger craft sheet.
The stone grey panels were die cut using Noelle Essentials and the white hearts are from the Flawless Heart set, just released last night! The sentiment is In a Word: Thanks.
I used the exact same supplies for the pillow box. Since the base of the cards was cut from linen cardstock, so was the pillow box itself. I wrapped the Noelle Essentials die around the pillow box and placed the Flawless Heart on top. Since the centre of the heart was white on white, unlike the cards themselves, I added a stone grey centre before adding the In a Word: Thanks sentiment.
Both the pillow box and clear box were wrapped with May Arts white silk ribbon. The tag was created using Katharine Essentials. I dry embossed it with the Flawless Heart die and then stamped a small sentiment from Happiest of Holidays on a stone grey heart from the centre of the aforementioned die.
I've truly enjoyed my month as Leading Lady this month and I cannot thank Shay enough for having me and for putting up with my wonky deadlines due to construction at my house and a sick little boy these last two weeks. I hope you have enjoyed my projects!
