Here is my first project:

I just fell in love with the Cottage Wall Desinger Papers and Cottage Garden Stamp Set. I put together this very cute little Card File Box that you could use for recipe cards as a gift to someone who bakes.

Products Used:

Card: Orchard Opulance, Rich Razzleberry

Papers: Cottage Wall

Stamps: Cottage Garden

Inks: Rich Razzleberry

Punches: 1 3/4" circle punch, scallop edge border

Ribbon: 1/2" Polka Dot Grosgrain - Rich Razzleberry

My second project is a Gift Box with 4 Gift Cards

I love the opportunity to make 3D items as a break from cards. They always make great little pressy for someone that you just want to give a small gift to.

Products Used:

Card: Orchard Opulance, Old Olive, Whisper White

Ink: White Craft, Old Olive, Rich Razzleberry

Paper: Cottage Wall

Stamps: Cottage Garden

Punches: Small & Large Tag, Eyelet Border

Tools: Big Shot, Perfect Polka Dot Embossing Folder

Ribbon: Certainly Celery Grosgrain

Other: Playground Designer Button

I had so much fun playing with the new products from the Autumn/Winter Mini as I am sure you will also.

There were so many things to choose from, I had trouble picking what to use for this Blog Hop. I hope you have left your comment to be in with a chance to win the "Blog Candy". Now you're off to enjoy the wonderful creations of Meighan Wheller. Thanks for stopping by!
